- Degenerative disc disease is a bit of a misnomer as its not actually a disease, rather its related to an aging spine is has discs that are breaking down or deteriorating. Often, this leads to severe pain in addition to causing a significant disruption in your ability to perform simple tasks of daily living. For many, this pain, numbness, or weakness radiates down the arm if in the cervical spine or the leg if in the lumbar spine
- The intervertebral discs that act as shock absorbers begin to wear out over time and thus don’t remain as functional as they once did. As unfortunate as this is, discs can be returned to a healthy and hydrated state through a process called imbibition via non-surgical spinal decompression.
- The degenerative process can be expedited if you experienced a prior trauma to your spine or repetitively stress it which only aggravates the discs. This does not necessarily affect every disc in the spine. Typically, discs in the lower lumbar spine and lower cervical spine are at risk. When undue forces are placed upon the spine, it can cause degeneration of the vertebra.
- While bones can be remodeled back to normal, there are non-pharmacological and non-surgical interventions to encourage the disc to proper health. Currently, the best treatment that targets discs is non-surgical spinal decompression. The process of degeneration can’t be reversed but can be slowed.
- When the discs lose fluid, the space between the vertebrae narrow. Non-surgical spinal decompression slowly relaxes and stretches the spine in a very specific way removing the downward force of gravity thus creating a vacuum phenomenon allowing oxygen, fluid, and nutrients back into the discs. This begins the healing process to get you back to what matters most.

Testimonials
So grateful to Dr Lea and his staff for their excellent care over the course of my decompression treatments. I have had so much relief from all of my symptoms and am feeling so much better than when I first started this journey. For me, getting the results I was hoping for came pretty slowly for a while, but I would highly encourage others to trust the process! Healing takes time and is definitely worth the wait. I started seeing some mild positive changes about halfway through, but it wasn’t until my 24th treatment that I suddenly saw a major turn around and my symptoms diminished drastically. Definitely hang in there and stay consistent with showing up for treatments. It is so worth it! I highly recommend Dr Lea and the DXR-9000 method of decompression.
