NUHS Faculty Member Develops Innovative Device for Pain Management

National University of Health Sciences (NUHS) faculty are in the forefront of health care research and development. For years NUHS instructor David Hopper, DC, OMT said he has had patients report they felt great after a visit, but they needed help alleviating pain and discomfort between chiropractic visits.

Taking this concern to heart, Dr. Hopper invented a solution. The device is called the Mobility Master, because it helps chiropractors and patients keep the spine mobile between visits, a revolutionary approach to spinal health.

Mobilizing the spine helps release spinal-segment restrictions and allows proper nervous system communication, which leads to better health overall.

"The device can be adapted for specific areas of the spine where relief is needed," he said.

He further explains, "Pressure intensity can be varied and controlled easily with the patient moving their body. When a restricted area is found, the patient can apply extra pressure with the device to focus on a specific area of the spine."

The cervical traction device can be used on its own, but added traction can be applied with the attached resistance band.

National University of Health Sciences remains a leader in academic excellence and strives to broaden the knowledge necessary to improve patient care in all medical professions. For more information on Dr. Hopper's invention, visit https://spinalmobilitymaster.com/ .
