I lived in fear of being permanently disabled…I was in pain all of the time – day and night. It's so exciting to have my life back!!!
-- Nancy L. – Irvine, CA

I had this problem for 30 years. After completing DRX9000 treatment I am completely pain-free with none of the previous symptoms. I can do any physical activity and have no discomfort whatsoever.

It is amazing! ...[T]he extreme pain that I was feeling is almost completely gone! I can’t believe how good I feel!

When I first visited your office I had so much pain I couldn’t stand up straight and could walk only a few steps at a time…Now I am pain free, out riding my bike and playing golf again. I still can hardly believe it! You have given me my life back!
-- Dale H. – Austin, TX

Prior to DRX9000 Spinal Decompression treatment I could not walk! The pain in my lower back was very extreme and I could hardly take a step.

...I am totally rehabilitated. I have returned to working out at the gym and have even started yoga.
-- Truman P. – Irvine, CA

Thank you so much for helping me to recover from this back problem.  I really am starting to feel like myself again after almost 3 years of dealing with all of the pain and stress.  I sure am glad I didn't opt for surgery.

Abstract

Background:

This study’s goal was a retrospective chart audit of 100 outpatients with discogenic low back pain (LBP) lasting more than 12 weeks treated with a 2-month course of motorized spinal decompression via the DRX9000 (Axiom Worldwide, Tampa, FL, U.S.A.).

Methods:

Patients at a convenience sample of four clinics received 30-minute DRX9000 sessions daily for the first 2 weeks tapering to 1 session/week. Treatment protocol included lumbar stretching, myofascial release, or heat prior to treatment, with ice and/or muscle stimulation afterwards. Primary outcome was verbal numerical pain intensity rating (NRS) 0 to 10 before and after the 8-week treatment.

Results:

Of the 100 initial subjects, three withdrew their protected health information, and three were excluded because their LBP duration was less than 12 weeks. The remaining 94 subjects (63% female, 95% white, age= 55 (SD 16) year, 52% employed, 41% retired, LBP median duration of 260 weeks) had diagnoses of herniated disc (73% of patients), degenerative disc disease (68%), or both (27%). Mean NRS equaled 6.05 (SD 2.3) at presentation and decreased significantly to 0.89 (SD 1.15) at end of 8-week treatment (P< 0.0001). Analgesic use also appeared to decrease (charts with data= 20) and Activities of Daily Living improved (charts with data= 38). Follow-up (mean 31 weeks) on 29/94 patients reported mean 83% LBP improvement, NRS of 1.7 (SD 1.15), and satisfaction of 8.55/10 (median 9).

Conclusions

This retrospective chart audit provides preliminary data that chronic LBP may improve with DRX9000 spinal decompression. Randomized double-blind trials are needed to measure the efficacy of such systems.

Important Facts About DRX9000 Spinal Decompression

DRX9000 Spinal Decompression is NOT traction. Traction is a consistent pull using a fixed amount of weight. DRX9000 Spinal Decompression is computer-controlled to vary the force of pull to maximize Disc Decompression.

DRX9000 Spinal Decompression is extremely safe. There have been no reports of patient injury or significant side effects since receiving FDA Approval in 2001.

DRX9000 Spinal Decompression is very effective. Recent studies have demonstrated success rates as high as 88.9% for patients matching an ideal diagnostic profile.

The DRX9000 Spinal Decompression Unit measures the treatment force thousands of times per second! This allows the Unit to increase or decrease the treatment pull within seconds to adjust to the needs of the patient. This technological advance is found ONLY in the DRX9000 Spinal Decompression Unit. Vax-D, Accu-Spina, SpineMED and DTS Traction tables DO NOT possess this capability!
