Tips On Having A Healthy, Pain-Free Day

Most of us lead a pretty full and busy life. Staying healthy and pain free will help us to keep going and to enjoy those sometimes hectic days. Here are some tips to maintain our health and stay pain free:

1. Let's start with getting up in the morning. A few minutes of simple stretches is helps loosen us up.
   
   
2. A few minutes of walking on the treadmill is great too. Get moving and getting the blood flowing is a big help for many reasons.
   
   
3. A Healthy Breakfast. I just recently read online how they are showing that one of the worst things to do is skip this meal.
   
   
4. Maintain good posture at work. Make sure you work station is ergonomically friendly.
   
   
5. Drink water throughout the day
   
   
6. Take Breaks. For most, we sit at a computer all day; get up and move around a bit. Kick off the heels, eat some fruit.
   
   
7. Make sure your vehicle is posture friendly too. We end up spending alot of time in our cars, so make sure that isn't a source of pain.
   
   
8. Sleep with a good pillow

Why Does Spinal Decompression Really Work?

Over the years now, I’ve seen so many copy cats, others who claim the use decompression but don’t, and people who claim they can get the effects of decompression with simple exercises.

My feeling is that anything that can help your back is great, but for lasting back pain relief DRX 9000 decompression has been the best overall tool.

I’ve used traction, flexion distraction, exercises and more to help disc pain patients. They often help, but give only temporary relief. I will note, however, that after someone has completed a course of the non-surgical spinal decompression, those prior noted treatments will often work very well to maintain the low back. The reason is because once we finally get some good healing in the disc with the DRX, then other treatments, treatments that didn’t work well in the past, may actually work.

To answer the question above: spinal decompression works because when it decompre
sses the spine it actually creates a suction effect pulling disc material back into place. Once we do this regularly we can get the disc to stay and heal.

So, I often have patients do certain exercises or follow up with traction, inversion, or chiropractic care, but for a patient with a chronic disc problem or severe back pain the DRX 9000 treatment cannot be matched.
