Disc Disease Solutions is a revolutionary approach in the treatment of lower back and neck pain due to spinal diseases and injuries.

A unique and patented air traction design sets it apart from all other ambulatory supports. DDS is thin, lightweight and easy to use; it offers a high degree of mobility, alleviating as well as preventing back and neck pain.

The process is simple: by increasing the intervertebral disc space, pressure applied on the nerve root is relieved, thereby, eliminating pain while assisting active-rehabilitation. Disc Disease Solutions will speed up your recovery and help you enjoy the daily activities that were once too difficult.

Acute Pain

Definition: Acute is a word used to describe an injury or illness that comes and goes (as opposed to chronic, which is persistent).

Acute injuries come on quickly, have very definite symptoms which can be quite intense, and heal in a relatively brief period of time.

Often, and unfortunately, acute injuries to the back or neck can be the precursor to chronic pain.

Recurrent or Chronic Pain Definition

Definition: Chronic AKA RECURRENT pain is defined as pain that lasts longer than 3 months. Some experts define it as lasting longer than 6 months.

Chronic pain is different than acute pain in that it is not easy to find the cause. Diagnosis can reveal no injury in the body at all, and yet the patient can be experiencing very debilitating pain.

One way that chronic pain begins is from an injury. Scientists have found that repeated pain from an acute injury changes the way the brain lets you know you have pain. Even after the injury has healed, pain messages replay over and over again.
