MedX Back and the Lumbar Spine

In addition to these well-established programs, Dallmeyer & Thomas is incorporating the MedX Lumbar Extension Machine under the supervision certified technician of Michael Berner. The MedX is the only machine capable of performing tests of strength, range of motion and muscular endurance, as well as the exercises needed to strengthen the muscles essential to relieving low back pain. The beauty of its function is its ability to stabilize the pelvis and isolate the individual back muscles, making it impossible to do the exercises incorrectly. After careful evaluation of the patient, the MedX may be used for testing, and the exercise program will be incorporated into the treatment protocol. Most patients maintain lumbar strength
following completion of the program. (A major study of 627 mine workers showed 90% maintained their improvement after one year follow-up.)
