Dr Rob Elder Explains How Spinal Disc Decompression Can Save Many the Pain and Expense of Surgery
"Dr. Rob Elder of the St. Louis, MO area's Metro Chiropractic and Nutritional Wellness Centre bought equipment to heal his back injury and now uses it to help others."
CREVE COEUR, MO, March 05, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Patients scheduled for back surgery come to Dr. Rob Elder at Metro Chiropractic and many are completely healed and able to avoid surgery. Elder uses a non-surgical treatment for bulging and herniated discs in the neck and back in the lumbar spine and cervical spine areas.
After a back injury, Elder, already a chiropractor, explored options and says, "I bought this equipment selfishly to try it out on myself." It worked so well that he quickly moved to make it available to his patients. In 2006, he added Chiropractic BioPhysics to his credentials, becoming just one of two in St. Louis who have this Distinguished Fellow Certification.
Elder says, "Over 50% of back surgeries fail. I think that if most patients can avoid surgery, they certainly want to." With spinal disc decompression and Chiropractic BioPhysics, Dr. Elder looks at the spine from a mathematical, physics, and engineering perspective. The process has not only been well researched but also written about in prestigious publications such as the Journal of the American Medical Association.
Elder explains the procedure he says is painless, "A computerized traction device creates a vacuum-like effect in the damaged disc, taking the walls of the disk and stretching them, if you will, pulling the material back where it should be. Then we adjust the spine to create better function and teach the patients specific exercises based on their xray and exam findings to make the spine stronger." He adds, "One thing that sets Metro Chiropractic apart is the cost of treatment. I'm able to offer patients a price that's lower than many other offices."
As a special offer, the first 10 callers who mention this press release will receive a consultation and exam for any service (your choice) with Metro Chiropractic for just $49. The cost is normally $125 or more.
