“I had difficulty getting out of my car, difficulty getting into an upright position, so I was walking stooped over at about a 45% angle and my pain level was severe. I have had problems with my hips, my right ankle and I was fed up with my re-occurring condition. Even drinking a glass of water was difficult, as my head and shoulders could not move back for such a simple movement. I was very skeptical about spinal decompression and could not believe that I could just have a series of treatments and recover, because I was in such pain and whatever I tried it the past, it did not work, or only worked somewhat, or I did get some relief but the pain came back. I’ve done epidurals, nerve touch, pain killers, and bed rest.

Then I hurt my back again doing something as simple as sweeping the stairs. This pain was the most severe of the three attacks that I have had to date. I started the spinal decompression treatments and just a few weeks later, I can get up and down, move my shoulders back and do anything at all without pain. Spinal decompression has given me back my life. I really did not believe that it could, but it did, and I was in enough pain that I was willing to try. I am very glad that I did. I remain committed to the physiotherapy stretching exercises that I do to continue to develop my strength & flexibility.”
