I am having DRX decompression for L4-5 issues. So this week will be 11 sessions. I decided to do the decompression because of numbness near my knee after a hip replacement.. still have numbness and knee problems with tightness and ligaments pulled and stretched up to my groin. Very painful when it happens. Don't know if it s related but
Just watching my movements.

Thanks for your reply. I did decompression table after my L5 S1 discectomy. It was excellent and had great relief.
This time when I re-herniated the L4 L5 after the discectomy, I have not had the same results, but the herniation is pretty severe. Nerve pain is level 9–10 most of the day. I’ve also tried inversion tables and chiropractic. No relief because of the severity of the herniation against the nerves.
