Therapeutic Degenerative Disc Disease Using Disc Rehabilitation Table (DRT)

Abstract

Since 1889, the mechanical traction technique has become popular in spinal disease treatment and other neurological diseases by using the pulley and weight approach. In these days and thanks to high technology, many companies offer different types of expensive tables to serve patients in this domain which pulls them away from the guidance of the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE). NICE believes that patient care can be achieved by considering validity and cost-effectiveness as a type of treatment. As the number of cases of backache increases, it has become so important to find a definitive treatment of this disease. This work will enhance nonsurgical treatments for various disc diseases by the auto-traction device approach. Rest in bed will hurry the process of pain relief but it may take weeks. By means of mechanical auto-traction, one can achieve in minutes or hours what might take days or weeks in bed. The Disc Rehabilitation Table (DRT) function is to space between vertebrae that can help strengthen the spinal column and the supporting muscles, ligaments, and tendons. It is very safe and very effective not only at early stages, but also for complicated disc problems.
