Many people undergo open back surgery for different kinds of back problems. The November 2007 issue of Consumer reports states that back surgery was the most overtreated procedure. Did you know that fifty per cent of back surgeries fail after the first year and seventy per cent after the second? Back surgery has its risks of anesthsia, and scar tissue formation hitting the nerves which can cause severe pain.
Ask yourself before considering surgery what about the recupperation time, healing time (which can take up to a year), lost wages, and missing out on activities. Down the road you might have to have a second surgery.
There is a natural alternative called spinal decompression rehabilatation. This is a FDA cleared procedure which has a hig success rate. It is for people with herniated discs, prolapsed or bulging discs, sciatica, chronic back pain, facet syndrome, spinal stenosis, and failed back surgery. The person lies down or face up on massage like table fully clothed. Many people fall asleep during treatment. A gentle stretch is applied to the spine to allow nutrient rich fluids such as oxygen and water into the disc to hydrate and heal it. This allows the jelly portion of the disc to go back into its central location. If you think of the disc as a jelly donut and in the center of the donut is the jelly. When the jelly oozes out into the cake portion of the donut it can cause pain and the disc is compressed. What the decompression machine does is act as a vaccum and targets that disc and allows the oozing jelly from the cake portion to be sucked back into the discs central location and opens up the area.
Cold laser therapy which is a FDA cleared modality is an excellent companion with spinal decompression. Cold laser is a light that helps relax the muscle. Both of these procedures are non-invasive an an excellent alternative to surgery.
