## Indications for use
The DRX3000 provides a program of treatments for relief from pain for those patients suffering with low back pain. Each treatment consists of a physician prescribed treatment period on the DRX3000 and is designed to provide static, intermittent, and cycling distraction forces to relieve pressures on structures that may be causing low back pain. It relieves pain associated with herniated discs, protruding discs, degenerative disc disease, . posterior facet syndrome, and sciatica. It achieves these effects through decompression of intervertebral discs, that is, unloading due to distraction and positioning.
