"BACK PAIN" TREATED CONSERVATIVELY BY DR. GLEN BATSON CONVENIENTLY LOCATED IN WILLOWBROOK ILLINOIS

Most people will experience “BACK PAIN” of some type throughout their lives. Back pain can affect individuals of all ages and can range from mild muscle pain and spasms to severe sharp debilitating pain. Back pain can consist of cervical spine pain (NECK), thoracic spine pain (MID BACK), and lumbar spine pain (LOWER BACK). Spinal pain can be caused by a spinal subluxation (MIS-ALIGNED VERTEBRA), disc herniations, spinal degeneration, spinal stenosis, and can radiate pain to other regions of the body such as the upper and lower extremities, ”Sciatica”, and even headaches.

Back pain can be brought on by multiple causes consisting of poor posture, poor ergonomics, excess weight and deconditioning, repetitive activities, over exertion, lifting, falls, sport injuries, physical and mental stress, and even motor vehicle injuries to mention a few.

Dr. Glen Batson, of Batson Chiropractic Clinic Willowbrook, is a Palmer College of Chiropractic Graduate, and in practice for over thirty three years in the Westmont and now Willowbrook communities.  Dr. Batson has been trained to understand the multiple systems and functions of the body: bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, and the neurological system which supplies vital neurological input to these systems to maintain Homeostasis.

At Batson Chiropractic, Dr. Batson performs a personal history, examination, and x-rays as indicated to determine and diagnose each patient’s condition and/or the specific joint dysfunction that may be causing the associated pain and symptomatology. Dr. Batson utilizes his training at Palmer College of Chiropractic, the Pierce Technique of spinal evaluation and treatment, K-Laser Therapy for the reduction of pain and inflammation, Lordex Lumbar Decompression Therapy for lumbar disc rehabilitation, and personal exercise instructions for restoration of proper neurological and body function and relief of PAIN!!

Lordex Spinal Decompression Therapy:
A Therapeutic Treatment for Lumbar Spine Disc Herniation
​

​One of the most common health issues and experienced by most people at some time in their lives is: Lower Back Pain!!!
 
The lower back called the Lumbar spine is made up of five separate vertebra with an intervertebral disc separating each vertebra. The inter-vertebral disc acts as a spacer and shock absorber for the spinal region. The disc also gives us our flexibility.
 
Because the total load force of our upper torso is placed upon the lumbar spine, the vertical pressure experienced while sitting or standing causes an increased burden of pressure in the disc, the joints, and various pain points. The result of this abnormal load can cause the disc to bulge or herniate putting pressure on the spinal cord or spinal nerve roots thus causing the associated pain and dysfunction. Unloading the disc, spinal nerve roots, and osseous structures decompresses areas where sensitive nerve fibers are pinched or irritated causing the dreaded lower back and /or lower extremity pain.
 
When the pain in the back, buttocks, legs, or feet develop due to mechanical stress, injury, or weak muscles, Dr. Batson utilizes the LORDEX Lumbar Spinal Decompression Therapy to decompress the pinched nerve, restore spinal joint function, and rehabilitate the disc and surrounding spinal structures.
 
LORDEX Spinal Decompression Therapy is a closed reduction decompression procedure (NON SURGICAL) designed to unload the micro-components that produce pressure on sensitive nerve fibers. This gentle, safe, and effective process focuses on the specific lesion, disc, or vertebra diagnosed as the source of the pain.
Dr. Batson can be reached for further discussion and consultation.

SCIATIC PAIN TREATED via DR. BATSON WITH CONSERVATIVE CHIROPRACTIC CARE, K-LASER THERAPY, AND LORDEX SPINAL DECOMPRESSION THERAPY


Sciatic Nerve Pain: “Sciatica”.
 
Many people suffer from leg pain known as Sciatica. Sciatica can be a very debilitating leg condition. In fact, Sciatica nerve pain is usually the direct result of lumbar spine dysfunction, vertebral misalignment, causing irritation to the spinal nerve roots and thus causing radicular pain to the affected lower extremity. Sciatic nerve pain is usually the result of lumbar spine trauma, injury, disc herniation’s, degenerative joint and disc disease, or spinal stenosis.
 
Dr. Batson, of Batson Chiropractic and a Palmer Graduate, utilizes very specific gentle chiropractic spinal manipulative procedures, Lordex lumbar spinal decompression therapy, and K-Laser therapy for treatment of this lumbar spine condition and sometimes debilitating lower extremity condition.
 
Chiropractic manipulative therapy is utilized to restore proper lumbar vertebral spinal biomechanical function, Lordex decompression therapy is utilized for therapeutic rehabilitation of the lumbar discs and relief of pressure on a spinal nerve root, and K-Laser therapy utilized for reduction of nerve root inflammation, increased circulation, reduction of pain, accelerated healing, and for the restoration of normal activities.
 
Dr. Batson is conveniently located in Willowbrook Illinois and treats the surrounding suburbs of Darien Downers Grove, Hinsdale, Burr Ridge, as well as the remaining Chicago Land and Tri-State regions.
 
Dr. Batson is always available for a personalized consultation and review of your specific spinal health concerns.

Dr. Batson of Batson Chiropractic Treats Disc herniations and Associated Spinal Dysfunction
​

DISC HERNIATION: aka: “Slipped Disc” and PAIN!!!!!
An inter-vertebral disc is the cartilaginous material between adjacent spinal vertebrae (spinal bones) and acts as a shock absorbing cushion to facilitate proper biomechanical joint function and reduce friction. The disc also acts as a spacer between adjacent vertebrae to allow the spinal nerve roots to exit the spine and supply vital nerve energy to all aspects of the body.
A disc can herniate (bulge or rupture) due to injury, repetitive stress, posture and weight gain, aging, and/or a vertebral subluxation. A vertebral subluxation is the partial dislocation of one vertebrae in relation to another causing altered biomechanical joint function which can then cause altered stress to the disc and thus disc degeneration, disc bulge, herniation, or rupture.  
Disc Herniation can be associated with:
  • Neck or Lower Back pain
  • Radicular pain to the upper or lower extremities/”Sciatica”
  • Arm or leg weakness, tingling, and numbness
  • Headaches
  • Pain ranging from dull to sharp
  • Muscle spasm and stiffness
Dr. Glen Batson, of Batson Chiropractic, of Willowbrook, Il, treats conditions of disc herniations through proper analysis; very specific chiropractic spinal manipulation techniques (Palmer/Pierce technique); K-Laser Therapy for reduction of inflammation and pain, and improvement in circulation; Lordex Lumbar Decompression Therapy for rehabilitation of the lumbar disc and surrounding structures for the decompression of a pinched nerve root; and home exercise strengthening and stabilization.
Dr. Batson is a Palmer College of Chiropractic graduate, practicing in a solo practice for over thirty three years. Dr. Batson utilizes the PALMER and PIERCE RESULTS SYSTEM of spinal analysis and treatment consisting of utilizing Examination, X-ray analysis in conjunction with Video-Fluoroscopy (motion X-Ray imaging), very specific chiropractic manipulation techniques (NO Twisting, Napping, or Jerking), Lordex lumbar decompression therapy, and the K-Laser therapy. Dr. Batson treats patients of Willowbrook and the surrounding communities of Darien, Burr Ridge, Downers Grove, Hinsdale, Oakbrook, Claredon Hills, Western Springs, Lemont, Westmont, and communities of the Tri-State regions.

K-Laser Therapy: A DRUG FREE, SURGICAL FREE SOLUTION TO HEALTH CARE
                               
Dr. Batson, at Batson Chiropractic, is utilizing the K-Laser Cube 4, a state-of-the-art, Class IV therapeutic laser which delivers specific red and near-infrared wavelengths of light to induce a photochemical and therapeutic effect on tissues.

Laser Therapy has been utilized in Europe since the 1970s and received clearance by the United States Food and Drug Administration in 2005.
 
Therapeutic Laser Effects: During each painless treatment session, laser energy applied to the specific body region increases circulation, drawing water, oxygen, and nutrients to the damaged area. This creates an optimal healing environment that reduces inflammation, swelling, muscle spasms, stiffness, and pain. As the injured area returns to normal, function is restored and pain is relieved.
