DRS™ therapy is a revolutionary treatment for the relief of back pain and neck pain. It is the only treatment that was developed by a team of specialists including Neurosurgeons, Orthopedic Surgeons, Physiatrists, Osteopaths, Chiropractors, Neurologists and Physical Therapists.

The DRS Protocol® is proven safe, and effective. It is painless and involves no recovery time. The procedure has been studied extensively and validated clinically. Thousands of patients in Fort Wayne and around the country have been successfully treated with the non-surgical and non-invasive DRS Protocol®. The complications from back surgery can be severe and may result in debilitating conditions.

Chronic pain is a very serious condition, yet until recently there was no satisfactory treatment. Although doctors prescribe pain killers to help relieve chronic pain conditions, they do not always work; even when they do work, they do not solve the problem.

Pain killers are not a treatment, they only mask the pain which can cause further damage. The long-term use of pain killers are associated with risks, and may cause addiction.

No. The DRS Protocol® is

  • completely non-invasive
  • non-surgical
  • involves no injections
  • pain-free
  • safe & effective

Not only is the DRS Protocol® safe and pain-free, it’s also comfortable and relaxing. Our patients who suffer with back pain or neck pain have found relief with the DRS Protocol® treatment.

Surgical procedures may relieve the pain; however, they change the anatomy of the back, are painful, may have complications and a significant rate of failure. Many patients feel much worse after surgery than before and most sugical doctors will tell you that relief may last for about 3-4 years, at which point another surgery may be needed.

Surgery is a very invasive procedure and it’s best to leave it as only a last resort. At Busch Chiropractic, we have helped thousands of patients avoid surgery and relieve their back pain and neck pain conditions. The majority of our patients remain pain-free and are able to live active lifestyles.
