Eblen Chiropractic & Massage has offered Herniated disc treatment in Kirkland, Washington since 2002. We were the first office in the northwest to offer this unique natural treatment for disc herniations by utilizing the DRX9000 disc decompression machine.
The DRX9000 decompression machine is uniquely designed to gently retract herniated discs into their normal position and away from the nerves and spinal cord. More specifically the DRX9000 and DRX9000C can individually create space in-between the vertebrae and thus create a negative pressure in the center of the herniated disc essentially pulling the disc bulge back away from the nerve and spinal cord. This helps alleviate pressure on the nerve that can produce symptoms such as sciatica (leg pain) brachial neuralgia (arm pain) as well as relieve chronic lower back and neck pain.
These common maladies of sciatica and brachial neuralgia are often treated with medication or more aggressively with injections of steroids or surgery. Many times this is not necessary and can be avoided with a less invasive and more natural treatment with the DRX9000 and DRX9000C thus eliminating the risk of drug reactions or dependency and eliminating the risk of surgery which can lead to more serious life threatening conditions. Many studies have shown the superior effectiveness of the DRX9000 and DRX9000C in reducing symptoms of spinal disc bulging and facet joint arthrosis which also can produce low back pain and mimic sciatica or brachial neuralgia.
Most recently a study done by a collaboration of doctors from the world famous Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale, AZ., Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore, MD. and Stanford University in Palo Alto, CA. and published in the peer reviewed publication the Journal of Medicine, September 2008 concluded that nearly 90% (88.88%) of patients reported improvement in pain with better daily activity function, and no safety issues were identified.
In conclusion Dr. Larson offers a safe and effective treatment for people suffering from back and neck pain with sciatica and brachial neuralgia utilizing the DRX9000 and DRX9000C and our office was the leader in Seattle and even the Northwest offering this type of treatment.
