Biography

Dr. Bradley Herrgord grew up in California and began his chiropractic career in 1991 in Lincoln, CA. He spent years as a volume practitioner, continually adjusting spines from morning until night, often with energy to spare (or until the spines kept coming). One day in 2008, everything changed; three herniated discs in his lower back caused debilitating “cattle prod” like spasms, “electrocuting” his lower back. The pain and persistent functional loss took away his freedom and independence. He would gradually regain the ability to walk and stand, when unexpectedly it would re-occur, once again rendering him bedridden with debilitating pain. These episodes continued for an entire year, feeling he had exhausted all options. He was about to give up! Then, a friend introduced him to a true non-surgical spinal decompression machine, the DRX9000. Although he did not understand what this brand-new technology was at the time, he made the hour drive to another small town in northern California. The disc was so bad that he had to sit in the middle console, and bent over while driving to get there. He found profound improvements after only his second treatment, possibly finding an answer to his problem. His concerns about his ability to work, sleep, and raise his children began to diminish. He is forever indebted to this amazing technology, so much so that he dedicated his career to helping those who desire an alternative option to dangerous opioids, risky epidurals, and often unnecessary neck and back surgeries. He has been master-certified multiple times in treating discs, bulges, herniated extrusions, and degenerative discs. The clinic, Atlas Spine Center in Lincoln, California, is one of the largest and most recognized of its kind on the West Coast. Additionally, he is a contributing author to the recently released Ultimate Spinal Decompression book featuring the godfather/co-inventor, Dr. Norman Shelly, M.D., Neurosurgeon from Harvard.
