Auto Accidents
At Bay Area Spine Care Office, Dr. Basco, DC is specially trained in the diagnosis and treatment of auto accident patients experiencing symptoms such as muscle stiffness or spasms, neck pain, headaches, numbness and tingling, back pain, difficulty concentrating and many other difficulties.
If you have been involved in an auto accident, you may even experience pain, numbness, headaches, muscle stiffness, fatigue, and other problems including arthritis many months down the road. Most auto accident victims are unaware of the damaging effects of these hidden injuries so they release the insurance company from liability by settling before getting checked for these hidden injuries.
How are these hidden injuries detected? If you have been in a recent auto accident, you need a doctor that is trained in the biomechanics of the human body. Dr. Basco, DC can conduct special orthopedic and neurological tests as well as other functional tests that assess soft-tissue damage, muscle strength, range of motion, and joint & nerve function to determine if there has been any structural damage.
Dr. Basco, DC can also assist you through handling the often confusing paperwork that needs to be filled out to make sure that your rights are protected and your injuries are properly documented.

Results You Can Expect
The DRX9000™ not only significantly reduces back pain, but also enables the majority of patients to return to living more active lifestyles.
According to a study in the American Journal of Pain Management the DRX9000™ decompression method provided good to excellent relief for 86% of patients with ruptured intervertebral discs and 75% of patients with facet arthrosis, reports the manufacturer, Axiom Worldwide.
How it Works
The DRX9000™ non-surgical spinal decompression system reproduces a micro-gravity state during therapy that ultimately restore nutrients and blood flow to troubled discs along the spine.
The DRX9000™ system is designed to reproduce how the human spine responds to micro-gravity. The system targets specific lumbar segments (the site and source of your pain) and gradually unloads pressure on the spinal nerves that cause low back pain often produced by:
disc herniations
degenerative disease
sciatica
posterior facet syndrome
even failed back surgery cases
Unlike traction, which pulls both muscle and spine, the DRX9000™ applies forces to increase intra-discal pressure and enhance fluid diffusion to the discs. This non-surgical decompression therapy expands the space between the bones. Expanding the space between the vertebrae restores nutrients and blood flow to the disc which encourages healing without surgery. Non-surgical decompression allows a damaged disc restore to a healthier state from the inside out.
The DRX9000™ system has been proven to relieve pain by:
Enlarging disc space
Reducing herniations
Strengthening outer ligaments to help move herniated areas back into place
Reversing high intra-disc pressures through application of negative pressure
Each session is so relaxing, some patients report actually falling asleep during their treatment!
