About Lordex

Eschman Physical therapy, LLC is serving as the exclusive provider in the Warren area for the Lordex Lumbar Decompression Therapy System. It is imperative to note that the Lordex system not only provides a very scientific and site specific decompression procedure to the lumbar spine, it also provides a very unique method of strength training for the low back muscles. It is also important to note that this system is fully adjustable to patients of all sizes and all levels of dysfunction. Decompression therapy may be provided at L1, L2, L3, L4 or L5.

 

Is Lordex Right for Everyone?

Patients' lower back pain caused by fractures, tumors, infection or some disease processes are not candidates for the Lordex Program. Lordex does provide long term improvements for 86% of patients with:

  • Herniated or Bulging Discs
  • Degenerative Disc
  • Spinal Stenosis
  • Sciatica
  • Spinal Arthritis
  • Acute or Chronic Back Pain
   

How is Lordex Different from Surgery?

Surgery of the spine is serious, yet sometimes unavoidable. Fortunately, less than 1% of all low back pain sufferers are surgical candidates. But just because you don't need surgery doesn't mean you don't need treatment. Lordex is the logical choice. Lordex provides successful long-term relief from back pain, but from the standpoint of a non-operative closed procedure. Surgery is open reduction decompression. Lordex is closed reduction decompression. Surgery is open fusion for stabilization. Lordex is closed stabilization through increased paraspinal muscle strengthening.
 

If Lordex is Prescribed for You

You will most likely require 20-30 procedure sessions to regain functional capacity, restore spinal motion dynamics and decompress affected nerves. Some patients experience rapid relief after the first visit while most are significantly improved after 3 to 8 sessions. Each session includes 30 minutes of decompression on the RX1 Strength Machine. Passive stretching is also included to improve overall range of motion and flexibility. During the Lordex Protocol, you might be introduced to the use of a home traction unit.
