We have had remarkable success with
both acute and chronic low back pain conditions. We
specialize in the treatment of disk herniation, degenerative
disk disease, facet syndrome, sciatica, SI joint strain
and related problems. Our multi-faceted approach includes
treatment with the DRX
9000, a system designed to provide static,
intermittent and cycling distraction forces at specific
spinal segments.

| DRX9000 - The only
proven Non-Surgical Treatment
for Serious Back Pain
- |
 |
The DRX9000 was designed by a specialized team
of engineers at Axiom Worldwide to meet the needs
of today's patient, offering physicians the clinical
outcome they desire and patients the quality of
life they deserve. With Axiom's focus on innovation,
They are committed to utilizing the latest cutting-edge
technology to improve the quality of life for
those suffering from herniated discs, degenerative
disc disease, and other back ailments. Their expert
team consists of engineers who designed for NASA
and the US Department of Defense. |

With
a majority of the population experiencing back pain
at least once in their lifetime, lower back pain is
the most common ailment facing healthcare providers
today. In the past physicians were faced with limited
resources for successful treatment. With the age of
technology and the low success rate of surgery, patients
have become more educated to alternative treatment for
back pain relief This changing trend is evident by the
billions of dollars spent each year on alternative healthcare.
Throughout the development and manufacturing process
Axoim has continued to make exhaustive efforts to ensure
the quality of their hardware and software scientific
proven techniques were at the core of the creation of
the DRX9000. By combining technology and science, Backsavers
can offer patients an effective alternative to surgery.

Form
Follows Function:
Your body is perfect – by design. The human spine,
able to with-stand large forces and yet capable o great
flexibility, is an incredible marvel of engineering. |
|
At rest, the model
spine consumes practically no energy to support an upright
standing or sitting posture, and if properly maintained,
could easily last 120-150 years with minimal degeneration,
or arthritis.
The ideal shape of the spine represents an amazing balance
between all the forces of nature that constantly challenge
us – such as compression, tension and shear. How
efficient we are at resisting these forces is directly
related to our health. |
The graceful symmetry of this structure also maximizes
both its strength and mobility. The human form is
an expression of the functions we perform everyday.
The arc in the neck, as seen from the side view, provides
leverage for the muscles which move the head.
From the back or front view, the spine is a
straight column, for greater stability against gravity.
-
Straight column
- Good stability

-
Distorted column
- Poor stability |
Abnormality
in Form:
Distortion of the spine is epidemic today. Due
to the overwhelming and repetitive forces of modern
life (as shown below), the spine becomes misaligned
and malformed. |
 |
As a car’s tire wears down when misaligned, so
does the spine. This process is called osteoarthritis.
|
Subluxation
(misalignment):
Dislocation, commonly
of the shoulder, refers to a bone out of joint.
Subluxation, or”less-than” dislocation,
ids a bone out of place.
Subluxations frequently occur in the spine.
Abnormal posture reflects groups or units of
spinal subluxation.
Spinal subluxations create great stress to the
spinal cord and nerves through increased forces
of tension, compression and electrical irritation.
The result is a reduction of nerve energy, or
life force, and a loss of normal body performance.

Correction
of the Spine:
Chiropractic Biophysics
reacquaints the body with the normal structural
dynamics for which it was designed. Correction
of postural distortion and subluxation involves
reforming the spine, as close as possible, to
the normal model through a series of specific
adjustments and exercises. When
the vertebrae and supporting muscles are brought
into balance, normal function is restored and
further degeneration is prevented. The full
force of nerve energy is returned. Good posture
and a healthy body are the benefits of a “spinal
orthodontics” program.

Mirror Image Self Check:
Instructions: stand squarely in front of a mirror, feet
slightly apart. Relax arms. Close eyes, nod head “no”
and “yes”, stop at center. Open eyes without
moving and check posture. Commonly a combination of
postural distortions is found. Circle your posture:
