Does Spinal Decompression Therapy Really Work?
Yes — and the results are compelling.
A pilot study conducted by Dr. John Leslie of The Mayo Clinic evaluated the effectiveness of the DRX9000 spinal decompression system, developed by Axiom Worldwide. The study, presented at the New York State Society of Anesthesiologists annual meeting in December 2007, focused on patients suffering from chronic lower back pain for an average of 10 years.
Key Findings:
- 50% reduction in pain reported after just two weeks of treatment
- 88.9% overall success rate after completing a six-week program
- Participants noted a significant improvement in mobility, comfort, and quality of life
These results suggest that spinal decompression therapy, particularly using advanced systems like the DRX9000, can be a highly effective and non-invasive solution for chronic back pain — especially when other treatments have failed.
How Spinal Decompression Works?
Spinal decompression therapy utilizes a specialized traction table to gently stretch the spine, creating negative pressure within the spinal discs. This process:
- Encourages retraction of herniated or bulging discs
- Reduces pressure on spinal nerves
- Promotes the influx of oxygen, water, and nutrient-rich fluids into the discs
- Facilitates the body's natural healing processes
What to Expect During Treatment
Your comfort and safety are our top priorities. Here's what a typical session involves:
- Duration: Each session lasts approximately 30 to 45 minutes.
- Frequency: A standard treatment plan includes 12 to 20 sessions over 4 to 6 weeks.
- Procedure: You'll lie fully clothed on a motorized table, secured with a comfortable harness. The table gently stretches your spine according to a personalized protocol.
- Complementary Therapies: Depending on your condition, additional treatments such as massage therapy, rehabilitative exercises, or chiropractic adjustments may be recommended to enhance results.
Many patients report significant pain reduction within the first few sessions.
