Is Spinal Decompression Making Back Surgery For Herniated And Bulging Discs Obsolete?

Thursday, January 12th, 2012

Since offering treatment for herniated and bulging discs with spinal decompression therapy in San Diego, we have heard over and over things like “I can’t believe I was actually thinking about surgery. But when I got the results of my MRI and I had multiple herniated discs, my other doctor said it was my only choice. If it wasn’t for the news special they had on ABC News with Carol LeBeau and your free reports (with all the proof!), I never would have known about spinal decompression and I’d probably still be suffering today. It feels great to be finally pain free and NOT have to go through surgery – but why didn’t my other doctor know about ABS and DRX9000 Spinal Decompression and send me to you first? When he said there were no other scientifically proven treatments and surgery was my only option, it made me much more skeptical about what you said about spinal decompression in San Diego. It was hard for me to believe that there was such an amazing breakthrough treatment out there and my doctor didn’t know anything about it. Why wasn’t I given ALL the information right from the beginning? That’s why I went to my doctor in the first place! I just wonder how many people go through unnecessary surgery and continue suffering simply from misinformation and fear?”

There may not be an answer to the question. But it is known that there are a lot of people suffering and having unnecessary surgeries. And the most important thing is if you are suffering with back pain, leg pain, leg numbness, tingling and/or pain, sciatica or if you have been diagnosed with a herniated and/or bulging disc there is a very good chance you can get help without drugs or surgery. And the fact of the matter is there is scientific proof that the Spinal Decompression System has achieved an 86% success rate with herniated and/or bulging discs.
Surgery cannot even come close to claiming those kinds of results. I have seen some studies claiming surgery gets a 50% success rate.

According to a U.S. Federal guideline on low back pain, “Surgery has been found to be helpful on only 1 in 100 causes of low back pain problems. Even having a lot of back pain does not, by itself, mean you need surgery.” That’s coming from a panel of experts commissioned by the United States Federal Government! What the panel of experts found and reported in that guideline was quite eye-opening to say the least. Here’s the reference if you’d like to take a look at it for yourself: Bigos s, et al. Acute Low Back Pain Problems In Adults, Clinical Practice Guidelines No 14. Rockville, MD: U.S. Public Health Service, U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services, AHCPR pub. No 95-0642, Dec. 1994.

But here’s what I’m really shocked about: so many patients tell me they were “afraid” to try the ABS Spinal Decompression, they were “afraid” not to get surgery, they were told and believed they would be taking a risk trying the ABS before going under the knife. For the life of me, I can’t understand how cutting into your back and either cutting away the herniated or bulging part of your disc or surgically fusing a couple of your spinal segments can be thought of as an option before trying drx 9000 spinal decompression therapy in San Diego.

This is not to say surgery is never an option. In some cases it is. But, in many cases, it clearly should not be your first and only option. With spinal decompression, in many cases, your herniated disc is actually fixed – not cut out or fused. Spinal decompression achieves this through its cutting edge computer technology. This computer technology creates a logarithmic curve that senses your body an amazing 17 times per second. When the spinal decompression machine starts to distract your injured spinal segments, if your muscles begin to contract, the computer knows instantly and backs off slightly.

The computer picks up even the slightest amount of pressure from your muscles which is why treatments are painless and most patients say they don’t feel anything at all. Many even fall asleep during treatments while they are listening to their favorite music or watching a DVD movie. This distraction process continues until a negative pressure is achieved and the herniated disc is, in many cases, sucked back into place. Pre and post MRI studies have actually shown that herniated disc material has gone back into place and discs have increased in size and become much healthier. This negative pressure also allows valuable water and nutrients to flow into the disc so it can regain height and heal naturally.

As opposed to surgery that cuts out the herniated disc – leaving it damaged and predisposed to further injury. This is also much different from regular traction which has been shown to be ineffective at treating herniated and bulging discs. Dr. Michael Pritsker, a chiropractor at New Century Spine Centers in San Diego specializes in the treatment of disc injuries using advanced spinal decompression technology. Dr. Mike Pritsker has been practicing in San Diego since 2000 and has been specializing in spinal decompression therapy since 2002. He has successfully treated thousands of patients with back and neck pain.spinaldecompressiontherapy

Chiropractor In San Diego Reveals New Spinal Decompression Therapy Protocol To Eliminate Back And Neck Pain

Friday, November 4th, 2011

Back and neck pain can be potentially debilitating conditions for many individuals. These conditions will strike millions of Americans this year alone. Many of them will suffer for the rest of their lives due to incorrect information from friends and bad care from doctors.  The good news is that San Diego chiropractic doctor Dr. Mike Pritsker is sharing little known secrets that are helping thousands of people live pain free and enjoy their life. And best of all, the spine treatment program doesn’t involve risky medication and dangerous surgery.

 

Reality is most of us are all influenced by slick commercials that sell neck and low back pain medicine. That’s why we keep our medicinal cabinets, handbags, and car glove compartments fully stocked with all the stuff.  As a matter of fact, they now sell pain medication at Costco and Walmart in huge quantities.  People go down the aisles and toss a case in their shopping cart like it’s a bag of potato chips or a 12 pack of beer. And of course drug companies don’t tell the causes of neck and low back pain because they know that they sell medication to cover up the symptoms and to really treat the cause of the condition.

 

There are many different options for the treatment of neck and low back pain. Some of these options include but are not limited to chiropractic care, massage therapy, acupuncture, physical therapy, medicine, and spine surgery. Many of these options unfortunately may not work for people suffering from back and neck pain that is related to disc injuries such as disc rupture and disc bulges. Many people unfortunately end up turning to risky spine surgery to help their back problems. Others may opt for spinal injections consisting of Cortisone and Epidurals which only offer short term relief. They soon discover that it just masks the problem by covering up the symptoms while the condition worsens all along.

 

There are safer and better options for eliminating back and neck pain. Many people suffering from back pain and leg pain are turning to New Century Spine Centers in San Diego to learn about advanced spinal decompression therapy and specialized chiropractic care to fix their spinal condition.

Many people are finding the solution to their back and neck pain with Dr. Michael Pritsker’s revolutionary treatment program.

 

Spinal decompression therapy has been successfully treating back and leg pain for over a decade. Since 2001, Dr. Mike Pritsker has helped thousands of people live pain free and enjoy their life free from pain. Spinal decompression treatment with specialized chiropractic treatment in San Diego has worked for conditions like sciatica, leg pain, cramps, spinal stenosis, muscle spasms, neuralgia, disc bulges, arthritis, facet syndrome, and disc herniations. It even has worked in some cases when all else has failed. Back pain not only causes back and leg pain. It causes other conditions like depression, lost days from work, and can seriously impact someone’s lifestyle. Getting the proper treatment for the condition is important to get the best results. And it’s not a matter of what kind of spinal decompression machine the doctor uses. There are several available. There are the DRX9000, ABS, Triton, Vax-D and more. It’s more important to choose the best back doctor to properly utilize the equipment.

Chiropractor Reveals How Some Exercise Programs Increase Pain And The New Spinal Decompression Treatment Available For Back Pain.

Tuesday, November 30th, 2010

New Year’s Exercise Resolution Programs To Lose Weight Can Leave People In Pain Due To Spinal Problems. Many Are Concerned To Start An Exercise Program Because Of Their Discouraging Back And Neck Pain.  Spinal decompression therapy and chiropractic care in San Diego may put an end to the back pain. Those forced to quit because of frustrating back pain are finding new relief.

The spinal doctors at the chiropractic office in San Diego have been successfully helping people get out of pain and back into the shape they’ve always dreamt about.  They’ve literally helped hundreds of people in San Diego and California solve their pain and get back on track. Some had suffered miserably for years.  Many back pain sufferers tried medical doctors, physical therapy, acupuncture, massage, pain pills, and yoga. Many times, nothing seems to work.  Many had given up hope altogether until the back pain specialists at New Century Spine Centers in San Diego introduced the spinal decompression technology.  At http://www.BackCareTreatment.com, people with back pain can watch the latest videos to fix their condition and undergo pain management.

There is a very good reason why many former neck and back pain victims due to disc injury are calling spinal decompression the cure they’ve been looking for.  This amazing medical breakthrough is responsible for cracking the neck and back pain code for hundreds of former pain sufferers in San Diego and around the world. Many previous patients with back pain and sciatica have tried all sorts of treatments. Many were told that there is nothing that can be done for them and they are just going to have to live with the pain.

There are primarily seven options for the treatment of neck and back pain. The first of the options is medication and pain management.  Whether medication is taken over the counter or prescribed, it all works in a similar fashion. Medication may temporarily ease pain and inflammation in the tissues surrounding the discs, but because discs don’t get an independent blood supply, medications will do nothing to heal the cause of the pain.

Other available options for back and neck pain are massage, acupuncture, and physical therapy. Massage is effective with muscle pain and dysfunction, and in some cases massage may ease the pain temporarily. However, massage simply can do nothing to change the cause of the problem when it is due to damaged and degenerated discs. Acupuncture has some success helping several different types of pain, but offers no solution to the cause of disc pain. Sticking a needle into the skin will do nothing for a bulging disc. Physical therapy uses exercises, which are simply contraction of muscles. Contracting muscles around a bulging or herniated disc can actually make the bulge or herniation worse by creating more pressure on the disc and pushing the weakened and injured disc material further out toward the nerves making the problem worse.

Chiropractic is a treatment option that is incredibly successful with a multitude of conditions, especially neck or low back pain. In fact, studies show chiropractic to be a very effective treatment for conditions of neck or low back pain. When dealing with disc injuries however, chiropractic is best utilized together with spinal decompression therapy.

Spinal surgery is also a common procedure for disc problems, spinal stenosis and disc injuries. The 3 most common types of surgery for disc injury are discectomy, laminectomy, and fusion. A discectomy is when a surgeon takes a knife and cuts away the part of the disc that is bulging or herniating out pinching the nerves. In some cases this offers some short term relief as the physical pressure is temporarily off the nerves. The problem with this is the part of the disc that is cut out is the outer rings and this weakens the disc causing more problems. The pain returns because the problems were not addressed properly. A laminectomy is when the surgeon takes a tool and grinds the bone back away from the nerve. This may take pressure off the nerve itself. The problem is that bone grows back! Spinal fusion is another option for spinal stenosis but the results can be very poor.

One of the best known treatment options for facet syndrome, disc problems, pinched nerves, sciatica and spinal stenosis is drx 9000 spinal decompression therapy. Clinical Studies show FDA cleared, non-surgical, drugless, and non-invasive spinal decompression therapy to be a successful treatment procedure for back pain. A free video about spinal decompression can be requested at www.SanDiegoBackPainTreatment.com. Spinal decompression therapy with chiropractic care targets the true cause of the pain.

Clinical studies have shown non-surgical spinal decompression to offer good or excellent relief in patients with herniated discs and degenerative disc disease. Studies have also showed reductions in disc herniations. Herniated discs were originally thought to be untreatable without surgery before the introduction of spinal decompression therapy and chiropractic care. With this new technology, many people are living pain free and enjoying life.

This advanced technology is available to eliminate back pain in San Diego once and for all. Spinal decompression therapy along with safe chiropractic care in San Diego relieves pain very quickly in many cases.  Conditions that are successfully treated with spinal decompression by spinal chiropractors are degenerative disc disease, pinched nerves, herniated discs, bulging discs, back pain, sciatica, facet syndrome, neck pain, and headaches.

To learn more about spinal decompression therapy combined with safe and effective chiropractic care, those interested can contact the back specialists at New Century Spine Centers in San Diego at 619-630-9153. Spinal decompression should be considered when suffering from back pain. With this new advanced technology, many former back pain sufferers are living pain free.

Back Doctors In San Diego Utilize Spinal Decompression Therapy To Get Rid Of Back Pain

Friday, November 26th, 2010

Spinal decompression therapy is a type of nonsurgical spinal therapy that is also noninvasive. It is used to treat severe and chronic back pain that is a result from different types of spinal conditions. Some of these back pains are caused because of pressure that is exerted by an expanded spinal disc to the spinal nerves.

Back pain can also be a result of several arthritic issues. It turns out that there are many different health conditions that could be benefited from this type of treatment. Many patients find quick relief from this type of therapy.

Spinal decompression chiropractors in San Diego use spinal decompression therapy to treat various types of conditions. Of all the different types of conditions that spinal decompression therapy could help, a herniated and bulging disc is the most common. When the spinal disc is herniated, it exerts a lot of pressure on the spinal nerves; this health condition results in a lot of excruciating pain. The decompression treatment will relieve the pressure from the expanded or damaged disk and allows it to go back to its normal size.

Degenerative disc disease is another common condition that requires back treatment. Spinal bodies can be compressed when there is a loss of disc height. This is caused by spinal compression. When there is too much compression, the surrounding nerves can be constricted which leads to back pain. Spinal decompression therapy can help to alleviate the pressure on the degenerative discs, helping to alleviate the back.

Spinal decompression therapy treatment in San Diego is available at New Century Spine Centers. The chiropractors there are specialists in the treatment of back and neck pain. Spinal decompression helps pain from disc herniations, disc bulges, sciatica, facet syndrome, and disc degeneration. New Century Spine Centers can be reached at 619-630-9153. More videos and information can be found on their website at www.BackCareTreatment.com.  Many people are living pain free due to this advanced technology.

There is a very good reason why thousands of former neck pain and headache sufferers are calling non-surgical spinal decompression the “eighth wonder of the world.” This amazing new medical breakthrough is responsible for cracking the neck pain code for thousands of former pain sufferers.  Many pain victims previously tried everything and were thought to be hopeless cases.

But thanks to new advances in neck pain treatment for disc injuries and muscle spasms, thousands of neck and back pain sufferers are living pain free and enjoying life to its fullest.”

Dr. Dirk Kancilia, DC, founder of New Century Spine Centers says “by utilizing advanced spinal decompression therapy together with the best skilled back doctors and sophisticated diagnostic testing, we are able to give the patient the best possible treatment for their neck pain.

They have also brought in some of the most advanced spine decompression therapies available for non-surgical treatment of neck pain.

Neck spinal decompression therapy in San Diego has been successful with even the most severe cases.

It is important to note that many patients get substantial, immediate relief after just a few treatments.  Some patients get substantial relief even after just one treatment.

Cervical spinal decompression treatment is FDA cleared and covered by many insurance companies. If the insurance does not cover the treatment, it is much more affordable than many back and neck surgeries. For debilitating neck and arm pain, it may be the best option.

When Your Chiropractor Told You To Stand Up Straight, He Wasn’t Joking Around!

Wednesday, July 28th, 2010

The latest information does not come from Grandma Smith’s Home Book of Healthy Remedies but from the most prestigious orthopedic journal in the world, Spine.  Three recent articles in this medical journal  (The Impact of Positive Sagittal Balance in Adult Spinal Deformity (Spine Journal), Spinal Kyphosis Causes Demyelination and Neuronal Loss in the Spinal Cord: A New Model of Kyphotic Deformity (Spine Journal) and A hypothesis of chronic back pain: ligament subfailure injuries lead to muscle control dysfunction (European Spine Journal) ) not only have a lot of big words in their titles but they confirm the concept that the shape of your spine determines the function of your body.

Now when we talk about shape, there are two things that need to be addressed.  Shape means having the correct curves in your spine from the side view and also means having joints that are mobile and full of flexibility.   The most interesting one for me is the one that talks about Sagittal Balance. The conclusions from the article were: There is a DETERIORATION of health status with progressive forward head [posture]. ALL measures of health status showed significantly poorer scores as [forward head posture increased]. Even MINOR forward head [posture] is DETRIMENTAL. The SEVERITY of Symptoms increases in a linear fashion with progressive increase of forward head [posture]. There was CLEAR evidence of INCREASED PAIN and DECREASED FUNCTION as the magnitude of forward head [posture] increased.
What does this mean for you?  It means your chiropractor knew more than you thought and maybe even more than the chiropractor thought!   Standing up correctly, ears over shoulders, shoulders over hips and hips over ankles will help you live a healthier life, with less pain and increased function of your entire body.
This is why our posture analysis is a great indicator of your health. It is extremely important to get your posture checked regularly to find out if there are any misalignments that need to be corrected. Don’t wait until the weekend or until you are retired or until you have enough money. Remember Spine, the most prestigious orthopedic journal in the world says it’s true so it must have some validity.
Back and neck pain can be devastating and will strike millions of victims this year. At New Century Spine Centers in San Diego, you can get a free consultation to feel better, be pain free, get motivated, and get excited to live life again almost immediately! Discover the secrets to finally stop living in pain, even if you’ve tried everything before!

Controversial Website Reveals The Shocking Truth About How To Eliminate YOUR Low Back Pain Once And For All!

Friday, March 5th, 2010

San Diego, CA – If you suffer from relentless and annoying pain in your lower back and you want to end it NOW – please continue reading this health bulletin. It may be the most important thing you read this year! Why is this? Finally, someone is speaking out and revealing to San Diego residents the shocking truth of getting rid of low back pain once and for all that many MDs and drug companies would prefer you never found out!
What Your Doctor Doesn’t Know About Low Back Pain CAN Hurt YOU!
If you’ve gone to your family or company doctor complaining of low back pain, you may have heard from your doctor, “You’re probably suffering from a sprain or strain and some bed rest and medication will take care of it.”
This is a sure sign that your doctor may not be the person to talk to if you really want to get out of pain fast!
You see, most MDs don’t have the training or experience to diagnose and treat the REAL cause of your low back pain. Not knowing what to look for will only result in ineffective treatments and you being in pain longer!
Dark Secrets Of Pain Medications Finally Revealed…
Taking any pain medication, whether it’s over the counter or prescription, will never cure you of low back pain! At best, these drugs will only offer 4-6 hours of
relief by sabotaging your body’s
ability to feel pain from your
lower back.
This puts you at risk in 2 ways:
1. Pain is your body’s way of keeping you from injuring your back even more. Take a pill and you’re disabling your body’s first line of defense. And, 2. Taking drugs, even aspirin, can have damaging and sometimes deadly effects on your stomach lining, kidneys, and liver.
So before you take another medication to help you with your pain, ask yourself this question: Are the risks (a chance at increased pain, and dangerous side effects) worth a measly 4-6 hours of numbed out pain?
Here’s Why Back Surgery Is Only 50-53% Effective…
If your doctor has suggested back surgery to relieve your pain, there is important information you simply MUST know! You see, many MDs don’t have the training to detect the root cause of all your pain.
If your doctor’s diagnosis is incorrect, how can a surgery which is performed under that diagnosis be helpful to you? This is why the vast majority of all low back surgeries are deemed unnecessary and will only offer temporary relief, if any at all.
World Famous Study Uncovers Startling Results…
In search of a safe, effective, and natural treatment for low back pain, a team of university scientists performed a double
blind study. One group received
the traditional treatment of drugs
that most MDs prescribe. The
other group tried a drug and
surgery free method that’s been tried and tested for over 100 years. Both groups reported they felt better after one month. Now, this is where it gets interesting…
University Scientists Discover The #1 Treatment To Eliminate YOUR Back Pain Is…
After a month, all treatments were discontinued. Immediately, the group receiving traditional care reported their pain had come back. The group that had received the natural, drug free treatment continued to report being pain free!
After a careful examination, it was discovered that this Natural Treatment Corrects The REAL Cause Of YOUR Pain!
Website at www.BackCareTreatment.com Reveals How To Eliminate Your Low Back Pain Quickly, Safely, And Easily Without Dangerous Drugs And Unnecessary Surgery!
If you are one of the millions of Americans who continue to suffer from low back pain then this treatment may be perfect for YOU! To learn more about this fascinating, state of the art treatment, please visit www.BackCareTreatment.com. Don’t live another day in pain, you don’t have to.
