SLIPPED DISCS

The
discs along the spine are flexible pads that are held tightly
between the vertebrae by ligaments. These discs separate the vertebrae
and keep them from rubbing against each other. As we age, these
discs experience a great decrease in blood flow and their inner
material becomes harder and less shock absorbing.
In spite of the term "slipped disc," there is really
little or no room for spinal discs to slip or move. What actually
happens is a swelling, or "herniation," of the inner
disc material, forcing it through the rubbery outer membrane of
the disc, often resulting in pressure against the surrounding
nerves. Rupturing or tearing of the disc's outer membrane can
cause the inner material to intrude upon the spinal cord and its
attached nerves, causing unbearable pain. The vast majority of
disc injuries occur in the low back, though some occur in the
neck and shoulders.
Although a jarring injury can damage a disc, most problems seem
to be brought on by everyday activities - improper lifting, falling,
making a sudden, uncontrolled movement. Occasionally, one may
suffer a damaged disc without there being an apparent cause. Inactive
people appear to be more likely to suffer disc problems than those
who commit to regular exercise and flexibility maintenance.
Other causes of disc problems are poor muscle tone, being overweight
and in some more severe and less common cases, a deficiency of
collagen, a component of cartilage.
It is interesting to note, however, that as we age and the inner
material of our spinal discs harden, we become less susceptible
to so-called "slipped discs." The greatest number of
reports of the problem occur in men under 50.
DR-HO'S
MUSCLE MASSAGE THERAPY SYSTEM works to relieve muscle tension
and pain extremely quickly. The pulse wave and frequencies are
modeled after 12 different professional therapeutic devices that
are commonly used in Chiropractic and Physiotherapy clinics. The
DR-HO SYSTEM is a major advancement in the field of pain
relieving devices, and is programmed to change methods of stimulation
every few seconds to prevent the body from adapting to the same
stimulation, which is a common problem with most electrical stimulating
devices. With DR-HO'S MUSCLE MASSAGE THERAPY SYSTEM,
the more it is used, the more effective it becomes.
The system is clinically tested and
is scientifically proven to perform the following:
- Dramatically relieve muscle tension after 20 minutes of use.
- Dramatically relieve pain after 20 minutes of use.
- Increase oxygen level in the tissues during and after the
20-minute massage treatment.
- Increase muscle strength after 20 minutes of use.
- Increase range of motion in the neck, shoulder and lower back
after 20 minutes of use.
The DR-HO'S MUSCLE
MASSAGE THERAPY SYSTEM is portable, easy to use and safe to
use. Patient are recommended to utilize the system 3 to 5 times
per day. There are no chemicals involved, so there are no drug
interactions or overuse concerns. The system can be used almost
anywhere on the body as needed. There is a detailed instruction
manual and video, which is included to show you how to get fast
effective relief for over 20 major body areas. On this instructional
video, Dr. Michael Ho also demonstrates very specific rehabilitation
exercises for each major body part. Patient should also use DR-HO
before bedtime to massage their upper neck, sub-occipital region
to help relieve their headaches and to induce a deeper sleep.
