We specialize in the treatment of sciatic pain relief. We use the DRX9000 Non Surgical Spinal Decompression machine, which has been cleared by the FDA. Many patients have been able to avoid back surgery with the our treatment for sciatica and disc bulges, herniations and pinched nerves among other things. We also use MedX rehabilitation for strengthening exercises and Cold Laser as part of the treatment for sciatica. MedPay, Work Comp and some Ins pay for Spinal Decompression treatment. I graduated UCLA with a minor in Kinesiology before receiving my doctorate.I've been at the same location since 1989.

Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery: A Potentially Misleading Term.

Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery: A Potentially Misleading Term. It is concerning that as these procedures become more popularized and marketed to the public, there remains very little in the way of concrete research to clearly delineate indications for and the comparative effectiveness of these treatments. -Ronald D.

TENS stands for Transcutaneous Electric Nerve Stimulation

We have TENS units for sale. Normally $450, we are charging $200 brand new. What is a TENS unit. TENS stands for Transcutaneous Electric Nerve Stimulation which relieves pain temporally for people who have Failed Back Surgery. The TENS unit sends electrical impulses through the skin to the underlying peripheral nerves. We only have 3 left, so don't delay if you are interested. This is only to treat the symptoms and does nothing to correct the cause and or problem.
