What is The DRS Protocol™?
Bea had suffered for sixteen years prior to the DRS Protocol™…
Bea had suffered for sixteen years with back and leg pain and was diagnosed with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD), was having difficulty sitting for any length of time in her graduate classes at the University of Washington. She had received dozens of injections.
Multiple course of physical therapy were so painful for Bea that she was advised to pain medication prior to each session. Ultimately she was sent to a chronic pain clinic where she was given prescriptions for a strong medication (methadone) and told she would need to take it for the rest of her life.
Surgeons advised Bea that she needed to have surgery—a lumbar fusion, but she knew that she didn’t want a fusion based on the problems of people she personally knew who had experienced failed back surgeries, as well her concerns which arose from what she had read about spinal fusions.
Bea wasn’t a spring chicken, but she wasn’t over the hill either, and considered herself much too young to be so disabled with back and leg pain and numbness.
Bea’s husband saw Dr. Sinner’s commercial on television and encouraged her to call the Sinner Chiropractic Pain Center of Puyallup, WA to find out if she could be helped with the DRS Protocol™.
As usual with patients with Degenerative Disc Disease, Bea was a candidate for care.
Within a very short time, Bea had significant relief of both pain and numbness—she estimates 90% overall improvement.
When asked her opinion of the DRS Protcol Bea concludes, “These treatments are a tremendous advancement to medical science.”
Before Bea came to see Dr. Sinner at the Sinner Chiropractic Pain Center, she was afraid that she would be facing a miserable future.
Thanks to the DRS Protocol™, Bea was able to get back to many of normal life activities.
What is the DRS Protocol™?
The DRS Protocol™ is a comprehensive combination of treatments, which include axial/spinal decompression, and multiple therapies and utilizes “Patient Centered Healthcare” and “best practice” approach.
Dr. Richard E. Busch, III DC, of Fort Wayne, Indiana, was a a pioneer in bringing DRS™, spinal decompression, technology to the national forefront of care for appropriate low back pain and neck pain conditions.
Busch has been successfully treating thousands of chronic and severe disc patients for over 15 years.
The DRS in DRS Protocol™ stands for Decompression, Reduction and Stabilization.
The DRS Protocol™ has been proven most effective for involved and chronic disc conditions, degenerative disc disease, herniated disc(s), numbness and tingling of the hands/arms and legs/feet, as well as sciatica, posterior facet syndrome, spinal stenosis and failed back and neck surgeries.
Treatment is customized for each patient’s needs, as each patient’s health and condition is individual.
How Does DRS™ Work?
The DRS Protocol™ applies an “axial” or distractive force to the injured disc levels.
During treatment, intradiscal pressure is dropped from a positive to a negative.
This negative pressure promotes the diffusion, or intake, of water, oxygen, and nutrients into the vertebral disc area, thereby rehydrating the degenerated disc.
Repeated pressure differential promotes retraction of a herniated nucleus pulposus (the elastic core of the intervertebral disc).
In other words, the DRS™ Protocol reduces pressure inside of the disc.
This reduces the painful herniation and the pain from other disc-related degenerative conditions.
The pressure reduction results in increased blood flow to the injured area, reduction of pain, increased mobility, and tissue repair.
In research articles conclude that for patients with appropriate back pain conditions, DRS is a “front-line, premier treatment.”
Busch states, “I know what we do for care is the solution for the fight against low back and neck pain because for over fifteen years we have seen the life changing outcomes for our patients through treatment with our unique customized DRS Protocol™.”
Busch is the author of *Surgery not Included, FREEDOM from Chronic Back and Neck Pain.
Since 2007 Dr. Alan Sinner at the Sinner Chiropractic Pain Center has been offering and advancing the DRS Protocol™ to patients in Puyallup, WA.
