BREAKTHROUGH TECHNOLOGY
DRX9000TM WITHOUT BACK SURGERY
Surgeons perform an estimated 300,000 to 400,000
back surgeries every year. Annually, neurosurgeons
perform at least 100,000 operations for lumbar disc
disease alone, and orthopedic surgeons perform a
similar number. It is estimated that between 20% and
40% of these operations are unsuccessful.
That is why doctors from all over the country
are racing to acquire and get trained to operate the
DRX9000TM, an FDA approved device that is saving
thousands of Americans suffering from chronic back
pain from going under the knife.
Dr. Melinda Keller, who treats serious back
pain without surgery explains how the DRX9000TM
works... “Over 10 years ago, NASA began to notice
an unexpected result of space travel: Astronauts
that left with back pain would come back without
it. After investigated this now phenomenon here’s
what they found: During the anti-gravity state of the
mission there were decompressive forces on the
intervertebral discs and back pain was relieved. How?
When you travel through space, the effects of gravity
are removed and you are in a weightless state. All
the pressure is taken off your spine and discs. Even
better — and this is the key — a negative pressure
is created. This negative pressure actually sucks the
herniated material back into the disc and allows it
to heal. Thanks to the DRX9000TM, disc herniation
sufferers finally have a non-surgical solution.”
The main conditions the DRX9000TM has documented
success with are back pain, sciatica, herniated
and/or bulging discs (single or multiple), degenerative
disc disease, facet syndromes and a relapse
or failure following back surgery.

FDA approved solution to back pain or to set up an

RELIEVES BACK PAIN
Local doctor treats herniated and bulging discs, sciatica, and serious lower back pain
BY JULIANNE CUBA
Talk about a soft Landing!
Locals with deep pockets
can soon rent dozens of newly
built waterfront apartments
in Brooklyn Bridge Park, now
that the developers of Pier 6’s
two controversial towers are
putting the fi nishing touches
on their shorter high-rise, new
renderings of which they released
on Dec. 12.
The 15-story tower at 15
Bridge Park Drive, which the
builders dubbed The Landing,
boasts a total of 140 units, 100 of
which are be so-called affordable
rentals doled out via the
city’s housing lottery based on
three income-based affordability
tiers , which eligible locals
could apply for through Nov. 9.
But leasing for the dozens of
other market-rate units inside
— which include studios starting
at $3,100-per month, along
with one-to-three-bedroom
units with proportionately
higher rents — is expected to
start next month, according to
reps from the building’s broker
MNS, who said residents can
move in shortly afterward.
Architects with ODA New
York — the fi rm that dreamt up
the 28-story condo-fi lled Quay
Tower at Pier 6 — also designed
the shorter high-rise.
It features a lobby staffed by
a part-time doorman, a fi tness
center with a yoga studio, a children’s
playroom, and indoor
and outdoor rooftop lounges.
Residents of the swanky
Quay Tower — where developers
RAL Development Services
and Oliver’s Realty Group recently
received a record-breaking
offer of more than $20 million
for a penthouse — are
slated to move in by next summer,
once workers complete fi -
nal touches to the property, according
to a rep.
The nearly complete towers
are the end result of a years-long
legal battle that leaders of civic
group the Brooklyn Heights
Association waged against the
park and the developers, which
ended back in February when a
judge ruled the buildings could
legally rise in the meadow.
NEARLY DONE: Residents could move into Brooklyn Bridge Park’s shorter Pier 6 highrise,
the Landing, as soon as early next year. Millarc
