Is the Kennedy Decompression Technique the answer for you?
With all of the unnatural positioning and loading of the human spine, there is no surprise that we often suffer from back pain. What is more common is the fact that most injured spinal discs often never fully heal due to the constant wear and tear they undergo during normal daily activities.
Nutrition in the disc depends on osmotic movement of nutrients like Proline and oxygen into the disc to help produce collagen which will ultimately renew the disc. This cycle from Proline to Collagen is very slow and takes up to 500 days even in a healthy disc! By lowering the pressure in the disc segment, we can greatly facilitate the process of Proline uptake and ultimately Collagen formation and thereby accelerate healing at the affected disc segment in far less time than 500 days. Decompression accomplishes this by means of increased diffusion of nutrients and blood through the end-plates of the vertebrae as a result of the centripetal force created by the properly applied traction force.
80% of people over the age of 30 will experience back pain at some point in their life, 30% of those will have reoccurring problems. At any given time almost 15% of any given population will be suffering from back pain!
Back pain accounts for almost one quarter of all occupational injuries and illnesses.
We believe that understanding the cause of your back pain is the very key to receiving the appropriate treatment. Because back pain is sometimes difficult to treat, a better understanding of the causes of your problem will assist you in your recovery.
