Patients that will benefit most the from the DRX 9000 True Nonsurgical Spinal Decompression System™ may be those with: Pain due to herniated and bulging lumbar discs that is more than four weeks old; Recurrent pain from a failed back surgery that is more than six months old; Persistent pain from degenerated discs not responding to four weeks of therapy; Persistent pain from a lumbar facet imbrications; Patients available for four to five weeks of the treatment protocol; Patients at least 18 years of age. Although the DRX 9000 True Nonsurgical Spinal Decompression System™ offers great improvements for the majority of people who use the system it is not for everyone or for all back pain.

Stretching and exercise are critical to fixing spine problem. However, if the alignment of your spine is not correct the exercises you do will stabilize the spine in a misaligned position. If a spinal mechanical problem exists in your spine, which a chiropractor refers to as a “subluxation”, exercise will not remove the problem.

I have been asked about what one should expect on a visit to a chiropractor’s office. On your first visit, you will complete a case history form where you explain your concerns and give us a picture of your past and current health. Then the chiropractor will go over this form with you and gather additional information.

Hi, I want to take this opportunity to introduce myself, Dr. Mark Peller, DC, and the Maryland spine and disc center to the residents of Rockville, Bethesda, Potomac, Gaithersburg, Germantown and the rest of Montgomery County Maryland. Our commitment to our patients has led us to the development of a center consisting of chiropractic care using state of the art treatments including Low Level Cold Laser and the revolutionary FDA cleared DRX 9000 – Spinal Decompression technology for back pain due to Herniated/Bulging Discs, Degenerative Disc Disease, Sciatic Leg Pain, Facet Syndromes and other conditions.

Every day I see at least one patient, in College Park,that wants to know why they are having back pain.

For too long the health care community has focused on symptom reduction for short term solutions.
