AccuSpina for Sciatica

AccuSpina for sciatica is a method of non-surgical spinal decompression. The AccuSpina device is manufactured by The North American Medical Corp. and uses the IDD (Intervertebral Differential Dynamics) decompression system.

AccuSpina for Sciatica

What is Intervertebral Differential Dynamics?

AccuSpina, like other popular forms of spinal decompression, is a machine which enacts highly specific spinal stretching and expansion of the intervertebral disc spaces within the affected painful regions. The device can precisely target any vertebral level which is burdened by a painful herniated disc, degenerative disc disease or some forms of spinal osteoarthritis. The machine is very gentle and slowly elongates the spine to relieve pressure on pinched nerves due to foraminal stenosis, as well as creating a vacuum effect which helps to coax bulging discs back into their proper anatomical placements.

AccuSpina for Sciatica Treatment

The AccuSpina program is advantageous over many other forms of sciatica treatment, since it is finite and offers an excellent chance for a permanent cure without surgery. Most other treatment options are symptomatic in nature and must be continued year after year to provide ongoing relief. Spinal decompression typically takes about 1 month to complete.

AccuSpina recipients will usually take 20 to 25 sessions on the machine over the course of about 35 days. These sessions last about 30 minutes each and might be supplemented by other healing modalities, such as ice or heat, hydrotherapy, massage or TENS treatment. The cost of spinal decompression is not cheap, but still represents a good value when compared to most long term therapy options.

AccuSpina for Sciatica Advice

I am a big fan of spinal decompression for physical induced structural back pain conditions. There are few risks and the potential to find a real cure. All the major systems including the AccuSpina, the Vax-D and the DRX9000 are well tolerated and well received by most patients. Their effectiveness is hard to deny…

If you have been diagnosed with a disc or facet joint condition which has not responded to conservative therapy options, you might be wise to consider undergoing a regimen of spinal decompression. This is especially indicated for patients who are thinking about sciatica surgery. Remember, surgery is a HUGE risk, where as decompression is more effective and far less hazardous…
