Spinal Decompression in Colorado Springs CO

Are You Look for An Option Other Than Spinal Surgery?

At Balance Chiropractic, we use the most advanced techniques and equipment to help our patients achieve lasting results. Non-surgical spinal decompression with the DRX9000 has been shown to create permanent structural changes in the spine leading to more long-term relief. The DRX9000 can provide relief for sharp or stabbing pain in the low back, pain that shoots down the legs or arms, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the arms and legs.

While surgery can be a viable option for some people, it is not always the best choice because of the potential complications after surgery. For example, if you have a herniated disc, you may be better off seeking help from a foundational chiropractor first. While traditional chiropractic care may not be the most effective option for herniated disc, Foundational Correction has had considerable success helping patients with herniated disc or disc bulges with the use of the DRX9000. Additionally, surgical procedures like fusions and discectomies are generally more expensive in comparison. If you are considering spinal decompression surgery, be sure to discuss all your options with your doctor to make sure it is the right choice for you.

Balance Chiropractic offers affordable, non-invasive options for patients struggling with disc herniations. We use the latest in
decompression technology to provide our patients with the best possible care. If you are looking for an effective option that does involve a surgical procedure, we encourage you to give us a call today. If you are experiencing back pain or other symptoms related to your spine, schedule a complimentary consultation to learn more about Foundational Correction.

Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression is Safe, Gentle, and Effective

At Balance Chiropractic, we don’t just provide chiropractic care for pain relief. Your spine is an incredibly important part of your body. It houses and protects your spinal cord, which controls all movement and sensation in your body. Your spinal cord is the neurological highway between the brain and body, responsible for controlling and regulating every function that occurs.
Your spinal cord controls every muscle, organ, cell, and tissue in your body. Movement, breathing, sleeping, digesting food, and everything in between is regulated by a healthy spinal cord.

When your spine is out of alignment, it can cause a variety of problems, from pain, numbness, muscle spasms, and stress. Surgery is often seen as the only option for these types of problems. Surgery is invasive, expensive, and carries a risk of complications. It should only be considered when all other options have failed.

Foundational Chiropractic is a safe, non-invasive option where spinal correction can be achieved without any twisting, cracking, or popping. Balance Chiropractic uses gentle adjustments to realign the spine and reduce tension on the spinal cord and nerves. By using both gentle NUCCA correction and DRX9000, patients often experience relief from pain, numbness, and other symptoms. This option is generally less expensive than surgery and has a shorter recovery time.

The atlas is the first bone in the spine on which the skull sits on top of. A foundational shift of the atlas can force the entire spine out of alignment and create pressure and tension on the spinal cord and nerves. By correcting the alignment of the atlas, we can offer pain relief to patients who have tried other options that have failed. The NUCCA procedure (National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association) is a safe and effective way to correct the underlying structural problems affecting the neck and spine without surgery or medication. If you are suffering from pain in your neck or back, contact us today to see if you are a candidate for Foundational Correction.

Looking for Relief From Spinal Stenosis

If you are one of the many out there suffering from stenosis, you may be wondering if surgery is your only option. At Balance Chiropractic, we offer a non-invasive alternative to spinal surgery: the DRX9000.

Stenosis is a condition that results in the narrowing of the spinal column, which can cause compression on the spinal cord and nerves, leading to pain, numbness, and other uncomfortable symptoms. While surgery may be necessary in severe cases, for most people, the pain from stenosis may be alleviated with conservative options like Foundational Chiropractic. Non-surgical spinal decompression is a safe and effective option for relief from spinal stenosis. It gently stretches and decompresses the spine, creating an increase in space between the vertebrae, discs, and nerves that lasts.

Spinal stenosis is a serious condition that can cause severe pain and mobility issues. Often the narrow of the spinal column seen in stenosis creates an unstable environment for the nervous system. Patients with a foundational shift present in their spine who also have been diagnosed with stenosis tend to have more severe pain and dysfunction. Patients with stenosis tend to struggle drastically with quality of life. Stenosis can make it difficult to go to work, play with kids, or even get out of bed.

Effective Solutions for Herniated or Bulging Discs

A herniated disc, also sometimes referred to as a “slipped disc”, is a common problem that can cause pain and dysfunction. The discs between the bones of your spine act like the suspension in a car. They keep your spine flexible and help to carry the weight of your body in gravity. When these discs become worn down or an injury occurs, they can bulge or break open (herniate) which may press on nerves exiting your spinal column and cause pain.

Surgery is not the only option for herniated discs. Many patients find relief from conservative options like yoga, exercise, physical therapy, and chiropractic care. Balance Chiropractic can provide relief from disc herniations and bulges through non-surgical spinal decompression. Foundational Correction aims to correct the alignment of the spinal and to reduce the pressure on the disc between the vertebrae.

If you are experiencing neck or back pain from a herniated disc, seeking our experienced Foundational Chiropractic for help may be the answer. Balance Chiropractic will help you figure out what is causing your pain and whether you may be a candidate for Foundational Correction, or if other procedures like surgery may be necessary. Our DRX9000 is cutting-edge medical equipment used to apply traction to the spine, which can help relieve pain and other symptoms associated with a herniated or bulging disc.
The machine consists of a table that you lie on, and straps that are used to hold you in place. A motor is used to slowly and gently separate the vertebrae of the spine with a gentle guided force. This can help to take the pressure off the herniated disc, allowing the disc material to reabsorb between the vertebra, and reduce the pressure the disc was putting on the nerves and spinal cord.
