Integrity Life Sciences expands orthotic options

July 27, 2012 — Integrity Life Sciences is reintroducing a very effective lumbar support brace, Integrity Gel Support Brace, which can be incorporated as adjunct therapy and billable treatment to various lumbar treatment modalities.

This brace was originally introduced and used by thousands of patients as post-treatment complimentary care following non-surgical spinal decompression. However, this belt can also be used by anyone who suffers debilitating back pain — chronic or acute.

You’re not alone if you suffer from lower-back pain. As cited by many sources including WebMD.com and American Chiropractic Association, studies show that 80 percent of the world’s population will experience back pain at some point over the course of their lives.

Any patient with lumbar back pain caused by a herniated or bulging disc, a degenerative disc, posterior facet syndrome, or sciatica will benefit by the use of this brace together with non-surgical spinal decompression. Together, they directly treat the etiology of lumbar pain, reducing it without the use of medicines, and allowing the back to repair under the prescribed treatments of the healthcare practitioner.

Naturally, structural forces supporting the head and torso are concentrated through the center of the lumbar discs and vertebrae, thus amplifying degeneration and pain of the diseased structures. The body reflexively produces muscle spasms in the back, increasing pain and worsening nerve entrapment, if present, resulting in less activity, more muscle weakness, more spasm and more pain.

The Integrity Gel Lumbar Support brace is said to be a fitting compliment to non-surgical spinal decompression provided by devices like the Integrity Spinal Care System. The belt can be used with or without non-surgical spinal decompression but both will restore the integrity of your patient’s spine health.
