The Axiom Worldwide DRX9000 system slowly decompresses the spine and the resulting vacuum — called “negative intradiscal pressure” — is formed within the affected disc.

This vacuum relieves the disc herniation which in turn can reduce the pressure on the neighboring spinal nerve structure. The results are reduced pain and discomfort.

According to the manufacturer, this vacuum effect can also draw the herniated material back into the disc, along with water and other nutrients and thus aid healing within the disc.
