Buy online Instant Relief for lower back pain - Disk Dr. Waist WG30. Solution for: back pain, herniated or degenerative disc, back support.

Disk Dr. is a revolutionary medical device, completely different from existing waist protectors that simply limit mobility of the spine. The Disk Dr. features a unique air pocket expansion system that helps combine both effective treatment and the relief of pain by helping to reduce pressure within the lumbar vertebrae.

How does it work?

The Disk Dr's patented, vertically expandable columns provide secure mechanical support for the lumbar vertebrae. The air inflated belt acts to provide a butress action between the lower part of the rib cage and a patient's hip, diverting weight bearing forces away from the lumbar spine and thereby reducing intra discal pressure.

Unique and patented air-traction design sets it apart from all other available back supports which are intended solely to restrict movement of the lumbar spine. The Disk Dr. not only provides superbly comfortable support but has the added benefit of applying gentle traction to the lumbar vertebrae, thereby reducing intra-discal pressure and providing speedy and effective relief of pain.

Active Life-Style

Support, Flexibility and Comfort

The Disk Dr. combines both excellent support and flexibility. For those who participate in sports of have an active lifestyle, the Disk Dr. allows a high degree of mobility while at the same time providing security for the weakened lumbar spine.

Simple To Use And Wear

Simply Wrap the Disk Dr. around your waist, connect the hand pump to the air injection nozzle and fully inflate the belt. The Disk Dr. belt expands vertically by approximately 7cm (2.7inches).

The hand pump with gauge model H/P is included with the belt. Inflate device until the needle in the air pressure gauge moves into the green-orange areas (10-14psi).

Clinical Results

Pathological investigations carried out by the orthopedic surgery departments at both Inje University Seoul Paik Hospital and Sanggye Paik Hospital since 1995 showed that approximately 85% of patients experienced an improvement in their condition within 3 days of using the Disk Dr.

X-Ray examinations have shown that the interval of the intervertebral discs at the 4th and 5th segments of the lumbar spine were increased by an average of 3mm. The resultant lowering of intra-discal pressure by the Disk Dr. has been shown to reduce pain and provide ongoing treatment through long-term wearing of the Traction Belt.

The interval between the lumbar vertebrae: 8mm	The interval between the lumbar vertebrae: 11mm (increased by 3mm)

Before treatment

In lumbar disc herniation, the intervertebral disc or the the nucleus pulposus is extricated from it's normal anatomice position in the intervertebral space.This herniated disc compresses on nerve roots and causes back pain, sciatics and muscle spasm.

After treatment

Disk Dr. helps return nucleus pulposus or the intervertebral disc to it's original position by reducing the pressure in the intervertebral space creating traction through the air cells within the device.
