Vertebral axial decompression (VAX-D) is
a non-surgical therapy created to provide noninvasive relief
of low back pain and alleviate the underlying problems causing
the pain.
Over 15 million American adults currently suffer from
back pain. And each year over 4 million people report that disc
disorders are a major contributor to their back pain. There are
several solutions offered to treat the pain, including surgery,
painkillers, chiropractic techniques, osteopathic manipulation
and more. And if you ask any person who has suffered from back
pain they will more than likely say they've tried just about
everything to make it go away, Yet it keeps coming back.

 As
we grow, discs may dry and crack, losing flex-ibility and the ability
to cushion the vertebrae. Good diet, plen-ty of exercise and water intake
can help slow the process. |
 |
 Exercise
keeps the muscles surrounding the spine strong, decreasing injury
sus-ceptibility. Exercise also helps
to maintain healthy blood flow
to discs and nearby tissues. |
 |
 A
healthy diet with appropriate supplementation
will help ensure that your
bones and tissues are receiving proper nutrients. |
 |
 Maintain
an awareness of what your body can handle. Falls or reckless exertions
on the body, such as lifting heavy objects, can lead
to severe
spinal injuries. |
