I strongly recommend clinicians take advantage of the ddd spine models.  I find the model helps patients get a better understanding of the anatomy and the mechanics of what is happening and where the pain is coming from.  With a better understanding they can be a more active participant in their recovery and less a passive bystander hoping the problem gets better.  Especially effective at teaching about flexion intolerance and discogenic/neurogenic pain.

I’ve been using a Dynamic Disc Designs model since they first started producing them, I think 15+yrs, and my original model is just now ready to be replaced.

Thanks for the help all these years
