Bulging Disc Fairfield County

Do you suffer from back pain caused by bulging discs? Bulging discs are a common spinal condition that results from acute spinal trauma or chronic spinal stress over a period of time. Based in Fairfield County, Dr. Risa Sloves, DC and Dr. Mark Joachim, DC has close to twenty years of experience in treating bulging and herniated discs.

The spinal disc is a cushion between two spinal bones called vertebrae. When the disc is healthy, the center is composed primarily of water and the surrounding tissue is a thick cartilaginous material that maintains the disc. A healthy disc separates two spinal bones and there is no compression allowed to the spinal nerves. As people get older, the disc begins to lose water, starts to fail and the outer layer begins to crack which makes it less of a shock absorber. Therefore, the center of the disc herniates through and puts pressure on fragile spinal nerves. This pressure causes the lower back and leg pain associated with herniated discs. The lower back, or the lumbar spine, is most common for disc herniations to occur at the two lowest disc levels, L4-L5 and/or L5-S1.

Physicians Dr. Sloves and Dr. Joachim make sure that they incorporate the latest spinal decompression therapy technology in their practice to help their patients. The DRX9000 offers the most advanced non-surgical and noninvasive treatment for lower back pain caused by herniated/bulging and degenerated discs. Research studies on the DRX9000 have proven that more than 86% of patients with chronic lower back pain due to herniated/bulging discs, degenerated discs, failed lower back surgery, sciatica and facet syndrome have avoided surgery. Another study showed a 90% improvement in pain relief after DRX9000 treatment.

The DRX9000 can treat the following back problems:
- Acute and/ or chronic back pain
- Degenerative disc disease
- Herniated or bulging discs
- Failed back surgery
- Spinal Arthritis
- Sciatica
- Posterior Facet Syndrome
