Most Manhattan and Westchester residents who seek relief from any type of musculoskeletal pain visit our Spine Care treatment center here in Eastchester, NY, with lots of questions about our SpineMED table.
They've heard great things, either from neighbors, friends, family-members or co-workers and they want to know exactly what the benefits of the SpineMED table are, especially over other spinal decompression systems.
For one thing, the SpineMED® is the most high-end system available in the market for spinal decompression. It has been shown to be a more efficient and effective procedure for the treatment of spinal cord injuries than other spinal decompression tables.
What's more, it has a longer track record. Patients have been visiting with chiropractors in Rye, Eastchester, Larchmont, New Rochelle and White Plains for SpineMED® decompression since the turn of the new century.
It has also been proven to provide far better results than any other devices for spinal decompression, and with none of the side-effects that occasionally occur with the others.
There are many other advantages of the SpineMED® table over existing spinal decompression treatment systems for patients.
Overcoming Reflex Contractions
Achievement of spinal decompression through the distraction of the spine without extracting reflex muscle contractions is commonly recommended. Tension that is applied to a spinal injury patient is monitored every 2.5 milliseconds and adjusted every 2.5 milliseconds by SpineMED®. One key that distinguishes SpineMED® Decompression from conventional devices is the ability to sense as well as adjust tensions almost instantly.
Targeted Distraction
The purpose of designing SpineMED®'s patented pelvic tilt is to help the patient adjust to the accurate isolation and decompression of specific spinal segments. SpineMED® achieves decompression at an optimum level. Achieving positive outcomes using lower forces increases comfort and suitability for the patient.
Focused Distraction
With SpineMED®'s pelvic tilt feature, the pelvis rotates in a range between 0 to 25 degrees during lumbar sessions. The head is positioned by the cervical section between 0-30 degrees during cervical sessions. For cervical treatments, the cervical unit is first electronically tilted to the angle required to target specific segments of the cervical spine. The patient is then positioned on the table with their head positioned in the cervical cradle unit. The Cervical Restraints (patent pending) are positioned to comfortably capture the base of the patient's skull for controlled distraction.
Lower Forces
With its patented restraints, SpineMED® decompression eliminates outdated harnesses and rope mechanisms. The lower force requirements of SpineMED® greatly increase the patient's sense of comfort and tolerance. At the same time, it eliminates the risk of negative side effects and exacerbations.
Repeatable Sessions
SpineMED® achieves variability in positioning harnesses irrespective of the operator or the patient. It achieves 100% variability with its pelvic restraint system.
More Comfortable
SpineMED® is a comfortable experience for patients of spinal cord injuries. Pelvic restrains of SpineMED® apply an imperceptible pressure against the pelvis. The patient's sense of comfort greatly improves during the procedure through the support of an inflatable air bladder for his or her natural lordosis (vertebral column).
Built-in Entertainment
SpineMED® includes a CD/ DVD player along with an adjustable flat panel monitor and wireless headphones to ensure the patient's sense of relaxation during the procedure. Patients can listen to music or watch DVDs for comfort during the session.
