I’ve been visiting the Non-Surgical Spine Care Center of Orange County for several months now with great results. The process has been educational as well as relieving my discomfort and pain. I wanted to go over my main two back issues that have been holding me back in sports and everyday life. (Above) is problem #1 and although I can’t pin point where the trauma occurred I believe it is when I was hit by a car while walking across the street at the age of 13. I was hit in the waist and awoke with my head in the front seat of the vehicle. I have arthritis in the C4/C5 region and my disc is not in healthy shape or form when compared to the others. That’s problem number 1 of 2 that I have in my back, I will get into #2 next week in another post.
The Non Surgical Spine Care Center of Orange County has 9 DRX-9000 decompression tables (6 low back/3 neck), 3 hydrotherapy beds, and are seeing close to 140 patients a day. They heat your back for 10 min, put you on the DRX-9000 decompression table for 20 min, treat your problem areas with an advanced TEN’s unit, and finish things on an Aqua Bed to massage your muscles. For special cases they do hands on work featuring massage, stretching, and rehabilitation. In my case it’s Bio Freeze, Massage then the Dr. Stretches me out.
The DRX9000 system uses a multi-factored approach for relieving disc herniation. As the DRX9000 slowly decompresses the spine, a vacuum is formed within the affected disc.
This vacuum is called “negative intradiscal pressure” and relieves the disc herniation which in turn can reduce the pressure on the neighboring spinal nerves. The results are reduced pain and discomfort. This vacuum effect also draws the herniated material back into the disc, along with water and other nutrients and thus aids healing within the disc.
The technology of the DRX9000 allows it to adjust the amount of traction according to the reaction of the patient’s body. Under normal traction, the patient’s body will sense tension as it is being pulled and react by going into spasm. To counter this spasm reaction by the patient, the DRX9000 system will cycle through a series of pulling and relaxing as the treatment is being administered. This makes the decompression treatment much more effective since the patient’s body is not fighting against the pull of the machine.

Hi, I understand how it is the pain. In less than a year i’ve have 2 hernias, in November i had to “wear” a collar for almost 3 months for my c6-c7, which made my arm not only to be painful but paralyzed. But worst it was after I get fine of this hernia, a new hernia in L5-S1 appeared. It took me 3 months without being able to walk due the hard pain in my legs. Tried so many medicines and rehabilitation but it does not work so well.
But I tried Chiropractic and my pain was reduced considerably. I was able to walk and pain has disappeared almost the main. It helps me so much. and it worked better than all medicine and medical procedures.
The one I visit is in Tokyo, Adachiku, so it’s a bit far from Orange County, though Surely you may found a better one in your area.
Hope you get fine soon. お大事に！
@Miguel:
Do they use this machine on you? If so, has it helped your problem?
I have similar problem in my neck, but not as bad as yours.
There,s no machine. Just using the hands and tool to impact the bones and muscles.
Believe me I tried all before this with no success. The worst it was estimulation with electricity. That got me worst so better to be careful because the one is felling the pain is you.
However every person is different, but my experience tells me this quiro helpme the most, and can return to play golf though with not so much efforts.
I understand perfectly your pain, and I hope you could be get fine soon, so be patient
Take care
