Horizon Health Care Group Provides Non-Invasive Low Back Treatment Called Spinal Decompression

Nov. 3, 2010 - PRLog -- The statistics say that 90% of the general population will suffer from lower back pain during their life time.  Everyone knows someone that has experienced back pain and we can all agree that most people including ourselves take over the counter medication to help relieve the pain.  Unfortunately, as we all know, medication is only there to mask the symptoms not treat the underlying cause.  Most patients suffereing from back pain either develop it without a known reason or can relate it to an accident or injury.  Many patients visit their primary doctor to receive prescription medication and to get a diagnosis.  Unfortunately, what most patients don't understand is that primary doctors have little to no training in back pain or any musculoskeletal disorder.     They typically are only able to prescribe medication.  

For many patients, the problems of lower back pain can be treated successfully with some education not only by their doctor but themselves.    Many patients wait till it's too late to get the help they need, where the problem becomes a chronic issue.   Chronic pain is much more difficult to treat.    What should be the focus is what is the actual cause of this pain and what is the safest and most effective solution.

For many patients, they are not guided in the right direction by their primary doctor.    At Horizon Health Care Group, our primary focus is the treatment and prevention of lower back pain.   We have been the leader in Sandy Springs, which is an affluent suburb of Atlanta, in the treatment of lower back pain through Spinal Decompression Therapy.   The treatment has been 85% successful in treating lower back pain within 1-3 months where medication, injections, or surgery failed.  Why so many people choose medication, injections, or even surgery before conservative care is confusing to many doctors treating these conditions.  However, we realize many people don't have all the answers and rely on their doctors for that advise.    We also realize that people don't think about other forms of treatment other than what comes to mind first.   We are proud to say that we treat 5,000 patients a year with Spinal Decompression Therapy and the results have been overwhelming.

Spinal Decompression Therapy is non-invasive, safe, and takes only 30 minutes per visit 2-3x/week.  Patients see immediate relief from this treatment because we are treating the cause of the actual pain.  Most patients being treated with decompression have been diagnosed with herniated discs, bulging discs, degeneration of the joints, or sciatica.   These are typical lower back issues that many of us have experienced or will experience.   While many medications will help temporarily, the objective is to prevent the issues from coming back while reducing or eliminating the pain all together.  Many people that are candidates for Spinal Decompression Therapy are those that cannot sit, have difficult going from sitting to standing, have to lean one way to reduce the pain, and notice pain when sneezing, coughing, or even laughing.  

Don't let lower back pain affect your life where you can't sit or stand without pain.   No one should avoid playing with their children or struggle sleeping because they have severe back pain.    

If you are a back pain sufferer or know of anyone suffering, we strongly recommend that you come to our website or search on the internet the nearest provider performing the treatment that many physicians are now introducing to their own patients.
