LINCOLN, Calif., April 29, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Advanced Spinal Rehab, Inc. has developed a three pronged treatment program of physical therapy, DRX spinal decompression, and cold laser therapy for patients dealing with back pain and neck pain caused by auto accident injuries. The clinic's founder, Dr. Larry Gies, said he believes this is the area's only complete spinal rehab program which offers an alternative approach to pain relief. Dr. Gies said he is committed to increasing awareness of treatments available to auto injury patients.
Dr. Gies has authored a report called the "Auto Accident Victims Report" which he provides to patients suffering an auto accident injury. "My report tells the truth about auto injuries," said Dr. Gies. "Many auto accident victims don't receive the proper combination of care for their injuries and suffer life-long debilitating pain due to soft tissue damage. This damage can be significant and takes much longer to heal than is usually understood."
The chiropractor saw that without a comprehensive treatment protocol, patients would experience discomfort and inflammation that often progressed to the point of making everyday activities difficult. In particular, damage to the muscles and ligaments around the spine would often lead to disc problems, nerve pain and arthritis. He developed his three-pronged program of care to address the underlying causes of pain.
Depending on the patient's injuries, one component of the clinic's treatment plan may include spinal decompression. This is often recommended when a patient has suffered a herniated or bulging disc. The clinic uses DRX9000 Neck and Back Spinal Decompression Therapy to gently widen the space between the bones in the spine, thereby reducing pain-inducing pressure on surrounding nerves.
Advanced Spinal Rehab, Inc. may add Lincoln physical therapy to the decompression treatments to increase stretching flexibility and range of motion. As a patient advances through the physical therapy sessions the clinic's licensed physical therapist gradually adds strengthening and conditioning exercises to the regimen. The third treatment component may include cold laser therapy which is used to stimulate the body's natural ability to heal.
The doctor also provides hands-on chiropractic care as part of a treatment plan to help maintain spinal alignment and repair the cervical damage caused by whiplash. When asked about his pain relief protocol Dr. Gies responded, "I've seen far too many patients suffer with pain from auto accident injuries for far too long. I want to provide them with the truth about auto injuries so they can make informed decisions about their care."
Advanced Spinal Rehab, Inc. is located at 845 Twelve Bridges Dr., Suite 140 in Lincoln and also serves the pain management and rehabilitation needs of auto accident victims in Rocklin, Roseville, Stanford Ranch and the surrounding communities. The clinic is offering a free consultation and free information packet to victims of car accident injuries.
