Dr. David Bass is the inventor and developer of the Antalgic-Trak® treatment system.
Professionals agree that healthcare is a constantly changing and challenging field. But through it all, the goals of superior and effective care must prevail. This was the philosophy that Dr. Bass had prior to developing what is now considered to be... the state-of-the-art system for treating spine and disc injuries without surgery.
Dr. Bass began the developoment of Antalgic-Trak in 2000. The current available equipment was too basic and unable to treat the more complicated spinal conditions.
With 5 years of research and devlopment, Antalgic-Trak was granted it's FDA-Clearence in 2005 and the first production systems was released in June 2006.
Dr. Bass is the president and founding partner with co-founder Dr. Scott Denny, of Spinetronics. Spinetronics is the company that manufactures the Antalgic-Trak. Dr. Bass is also the founder of the CORAL SPRINGS Neck & Back Pain Institute of Florida. A treatment and training facility centered around the Antalgic-Trak.
The Neck Back Pain Institute treats patients with a varitey of spinal challenges. It is also the official training facility for doctors around the world who are seeking certification in the procedures and protocols of the Antalgic-Trak and its propriatary technique called KDM therapy or Kinetic Decompression Mobilization.
Dr. Bass completed his Doctorate of Chiropractic in 1978 and began his professional practice in 1979. His New York clinic grew to become one of the largest “solo” practitioner clinics in the Northeast United States treating between 275 and 350 patients per week.
In addition to private practice, from 1995 through 2001, Dr. Bass expanded his practice boundaries into the area of integrative medicine by combining the expertise of medical physicians, chiropractors, acupuncturists and physical therapists into a group practice model. Dr. Bass created, administered and managed 24 successful multi-discipline clinics throughout New York State and Long Island.
In 1997, Dr. Bass completed a Master of Science degree in Acupuncture from the New Center College of Holistic Medicine. He had the distinct honor of graduating 2nd in his class and was further honored by receiving the “Award for Clinical Excellence.” This distinguished honor is awarded to the one graduating student who demonstrates above average patient treatment and protocols. Dr. Bass is a Board Certified Acupuncture Physician and received his board certification from the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. After graduating from the New Center College of Holistic Medicine, Dr. Bass became faculty at the New Center College for 2 years teaching students details of acupuncture practice development, protocols, procedures, ethics and management.
These combined clinical experiences enabled Dr. Bass to become acutely familiar with power traction and decompression therapy. In his opinion, these therapies were one-dimensional and overly limited in their capabilities. In 1999, Dr. Bass decided to evolve power-traction decompression into the state-of-the-art-therapy now known as the Antalgic-Trak®.
Working with a select group of engineers and health providers, Dr. Bass along with his colleague and project co-developer Dr. Scott Denny, created a range of motion decompression treatment technique they call Kinetic Decompression-Mobilization or (KDM). KDM can only be performed using the Antalgic-Trak®.
“I have always practiced using state-of-the-art equipment. I believe that the quality of your equipment enables you to clinically grow and reach an improved treatment potential. Antalgic-Trak® offers our patients a superior therapeutic instrument with features found nowhere else. It provides the practitioner the unique opportunity to become clinically superior in the field of pain management and range of motion spinal decompression."
Practitioners now have an improved and more precise instrument to deliver precise traction forces into the spine to remove pain, restore ROM and heal the disc.
Dr. Bass currently lectures and demonstrates Antalgic-Trak techniques across the country.
