Chiropractic & Musculoskeletal Evaluation
An evaluation can help determine whether symptoms appear local to the wrist or whether the neck, arm or other structures may be contributing.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Non Surgical Spinal Decompression works by decompressing the injured disc of your spine, leading to a negative pressure within the disc. This technology is quite advanced because we can target the exact discs which are causing your problem.
The DRX9000.
If you are suffering with chronic lower back pain or chronic neck pain, you may benefit from a surgical alternative known as non surgical decompression therapy. Discover the DRX9000.
Over time, whether there is injury or neglect, the spinal discs in our back begin to degenerate, very similar to a garden not getting water. When this happens, the discs become weak, and can tear causing a herniation.
If these disc injuries are not corrected, continued degeneration occurs until the disc becomes arthritic leading to symptoms such as back pain, leg pain, sciatica and even neuropathy.
Non Surgical Spinal Decompression using the DRX9000 works by gently distracting these injured discs so as to allow nutrients to be brought back into the disc. Once this occurs, natural healing processes can occur.
How Decompression Works.
Non Surgical Spinal Decompression works by gently decompressing the injured disc of your spine, leading to a negative pressure within the disc. The technology is quite advanced because we can target specific discs which are causing your problem.
The DRX9000 has the capability to treat only those injured discs, leaving other discs alone.
Essentially, this negative pressure creates a vacuum like effect which reduces the herniation. The reduction of the herniation leads to a reduction in pressure off the nerve root. Once this is stabilized, your back pain or leg pain symptoms will be alleviated.
The Process.
Once your case is evaluated and treatment will begin the following steps are initiated. On your first visit you will meet each of our staff and you will be instructed on what is going to happen during treatment that day, and you will also be educated on what you should and should not be doing at home to help your recovery process.
When you start treatment on the DRX9000, you will be fitted with an upper and lower harness. Then, you will stand upright against the machine bed, while our staff slowly lowers you to a more flatten position. If you have trouble lying on your back, don’t worry. This position will be temporary as we provide a knee booster prior to treatment commencing. While on the DRX9000 the specialized computer-controlled table relaxes you. Treatment takes 20-30 minutes, and your treatment plan will be customized to your individual needs and symptoms.
Frequently Asked Questions.
Who Qualifies For Spinal Decompression?
Non-surgical spinal decompression(DRX9000) is appropriate for individuals who are over the age of 18 and have persistent or recurrent pain. If you have degenerative disc disease, herniated discs, bulging discs, or have failed back surgery syndrome, you may qualify for this treatment.
How Long Does The Treatment Take?
The treatments typically take between 20-30 minutes and you will have these sessions for several weeks. Depending on your progress, we may decrease these sessions as the pain or condition decreases.
When Will I See Results?
If you choose non-surgical spinal decompression for your condition, you may start to feel a reduction in your symptoms and pain within the first week. A more notable change is typically felt in the second week of your care plan, depending naturally on your condition.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Numbness, tingling or hand pain deserves a closer look.
Carpal tunnel syndrome involves pressure on the median nerve as it passes through the wrist. Symptoms can include numbness, tingling, aching, weakness or hand discomfort. Modern Spine Health and Injury Care begins with an evaluation to determine whether your symptoms appear consistent with carpal tunnel syndrome or may have another source.
Wrist • Hand • Median Nerve
Not every numb hand is carpal tunnel.
Symptoms in the hand can sometimes originate at the wrist, but they can also be related to nerves elsewhere. Evaluation matters before choosing treatment.
Evaluation First
Numbness and tingling can have more than one possible source.
Conservative Care
The practice offers chiropractic care, laser therapy and other non-surgical treatment options when appropriate.
Individualized Plan
Treatment recommendations depend on the patient's symptoms and examination findings.
Understanding Carpal Tunnel
The median nerve passes through a narrow space at the wrist.
Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve becomes compressed within the carpal tunnel at the wrist. People may notice tingling, numbness, aching or weakness involving the hand and fingers.
Because similar symptoms can sometimes come from the neck, arm or other areas, a proper evaluation helps determine whether the wrist appears to be the source.
Persistent or worsening weakness should not be ignored.
If you are developing significant hand weakness, progressive loss of sensation, sudden neurological symptoms or another urgent concern, seek prompt medical evaluation.
Symptoms & Possible Sources
Hand symptoms do not always come from the same place.
Median Nerve Compression At The Wrist
Classic carpal tunnel syndrome involves pressure on the median nerve as it travels through the carpal tunnel in the wrist.
Neck-Related Nerve Symptoms
Nerve irritation in the neck can sometimes produce symptoms into the arm or hand, which is why the source should be evaluated rather than assumed.
Repetitive Use & Irritation
Repetitive hand or wrist activity may aggravate symptoms in some people, although the underlying cause and contributing factors can vary.
Weakness Or Loss Of Dexterity
Some patients notice dropping objects, reduced grip or difficulty with fine hand tasks. Progressive weakness warrants appropriate evaluation.
Carpal Tunnel FAQ
Common questions about carpal tunnel symptoms.
People may experience numbness, tingling, aching or weakness in the hand. Symptoms can vary, and similar complaints can sometimes come from another source.
They can in some cases. Nerve irritation in the neck may produce arm or hand symptoms, which is why evaluation is important before labeling every hand complaint as carpal tunnel syndrome.
Modern Spine Health and Injury Care offers Class 4 laser therapy. Whether it is appropriate depends on the individual diagnosis, examination findings and treatment plan.
No. Individual conditions and responses vary. Conservative care may be appropriate in some cases, but no specific outcome or avoidance of surgery can be guaranteed.
