Disk Pain
There
is a very good reason why thousands of former back pain sufferers are calling
non-surgical lumbar decompression the 'eighth wonder of the world'. This
amazing new biotechnology is responsible for cracking the back pain code for
thousands of FORMER pain sufferers.
Most Advanced
Non-Surgical
Treatment for
Low Back Pain
The lumbar/cervical decompression (more specifically known as LCD Therapy) is a quantum leap forward in biotechnology that corrects low back conditions such as herniated discs, bulging discs, protruding discs, degenerative disc disease, arthritis, sciatica, posterior facet syndrome, and failed back surgery syndrome.
LCD Therapy, the world's most advanced non-surgical treatment for low back related conditions, was developed after many years of research and clinical tests by a team of physicians including a world renowned neurosurgeon and biomedical engineers. Six years ago, our Doctors were introduced to LCD Therapy. They have been extensively trained and certified. The LCD Therapy targets a specific lumbar level or disc. It creates a negative pressure or a vacuum effect inside of the disc, allowing the center or nucleus of the disc to be re-absorbed into its proper position, healing the herniated disc. LCD Therapy rehydrates the disc.
Rehydrates
the Disk
When describing the treatment of a degenerative disc using the LCD Therapy, A degenerative disc is like a dry sponge - it should be like a wet sponge. So by creating this pump-like action through the LCD Therapy, we can rehydrate the disc with nutrients and restore it to its optimal function.
be very risky
and extremely
expensive
Research began on spinal decompression more than a decade ago. A team of top biomedical engineers and physicians investigated the phenomena. The LCD uses the technology that came out of their research.
Traditionally, surgery, pain medications and physical therapy have been the primary treatments employed by doctors to address most problems involving the spine. The complications from back surgery can be severe and may result in permanent debilitating conditions. Surgery can be very risky and extremely expensive. Pain medications can make it difficult for a person to carry on with normal day-to-day activities and still does nothing to correct the underlying cause of the condition. Physical dependency on those drugs is also another very real concern. While physical therapy can sometimes offer temporary relief for the symptoms, most patients observe that the actual benefits were marginal at best and in most cases allowed their condition to worsen, thereby making real correction more difficult. Another common treatment is steroidal injections. While this can also provide temporary relief, it is expensive and can also allow your condition to worsen as it only masks the pain.
Recent research revealed LCD treatments for low back pain to be very successful. LCD Therapy is advantageous for patients simply because it is another avenue for them to seek care for clinical conditions. It gives another way to maximize the actual treatment procedures performed in our office.
New patient protocol at Dynamic Medical & Rehab includes a complimentary consultation to determine candidacy for decompression therapy. Following the consultation, patients undergo a neurological, orthopedic and spinal biomechanical exam. A biomechanical x-ray will also be taken to demonstrate force differentials involved in the underlying cause to most back and spine conditions.
Often times, patients find the LCD Therapy so comfortable they fall asleep. The comfort level is due in part to the fact that the LCD Therapy can target a specific disc level and exclude inhibitory muscle fiber action. Unlike traction tables, the increase and decrease of the decompression follows a logarithmic curve, which inhibits the firing of muscle spasms, allowing the decompression to occur. Approval from the FDA concludes the LCD Therapy achieves its effects through decompression of the intervertebral discs and facet joints.
Decompression (LCD)
System has treated
well over 7,000
patients
The LCD System has treated well over 7000 patients. Over 90% of the patients that successfully complete the treatment regimen stay pain free. Those patients who usually suffer recurrent low back pain have experienced a new trauma or a repetitive motion injury due to their job or activity. Our clinic offers some of the most advanced non-surgical treatments and stays up-to-date on the latest spine research.
Hundreds of doctors can attest to the benefits that thousands of patients have received as a result of this revolutionary process. Professional athletes have become big fans of this treatment. It was, for example, instrumental in the amazing return of Mario Lemieux to the Pittsburgh Penguins of the National Hockey League after a 2 year retirement forced by low back problems.
"After finding out I was facing back surgery, I decided to seek other options. I found out about LCD therapy and started my treatment after the initial consultation. I was desperate for help because I was unable to walk. I noticed a difference after about 5 treatments, but after 8 treatments I was able to walk up the stairs without using the railing. The treatment is painless and absolutely helpful. I would definitely recommend this procedure to anyone considering surgery." R.O.
