DRS™ simply stands for: Decompression – Reduction – Stabilization

To break this apart, we start by introducing axial (distractive) force to the injured disc creating negative pressure and ultimately diffusion of nutrients, water and oxygen that are needed to help heal the injury. This process uses a cyclical (or repetitive) decompression of positive/negative pressures that help to reduce the pressure in the disc and retract the herniated core of the disc from the nerves. Finally, we work with our patients – even after the pain is gone – to stabilize the condition making it less likely to return.

This process focuses on the problem at the disc level, where other therapies don’t target the problem to aid in healing, they simply temporarily (if at all) relieve some of the pain. Using precise instruments, computers, and computerized belting systems (as pictured above in our office) target that disc for healing – without surgery, pain or drugs!
