If you're like most patients we commonly see at the Back Pain Institute, you've suffered from back, hip, leg or neck pain for a long time, maybe even decades. If you're typical patient, you've tried virtually everything: bed rest, over-the-counter medications, prescription pain killers, epidural injections, physical rehab, chiropractic, acupuncture, traction and maybe even surgery, and so far, nothing's worked. You're still in pain. And some days, your life is a living hell.

And that's not surprising. Research shows that most pain-relieving tactics and procedures aren't effective in treating chronic back pain at all, especially long term. So a fewyears ago, we began to look for an alternative - something more effective, something less reliant on chemicals, and something safer and less invasive. In other words, something that really worked.

To our amazement, we found Decompression Therapy or Vertebral Axial Decompression (VAX-D). In a leading medical journal, researchers were describing the seemingly incredible results they were getting from the therapy. Beginning our own research, we soon became convinced that the Spinal Decompression system (VAX-D) was efficacious and added the therapy to our own practice.

Most back and neck pain is caused by damage to the discs in the lower back and neck (the cushions between the bones). This leads to sciatica, back pain, neck pain, arm pain, leg cramps and a host of other symptoms. The problem has always been finding a way to treat discs without doing something invasive like surgery. Prior to Spinal Decompression, there wasn't a step between treatments like chiropractic, physical therapy, other non-invasive options and surgery. Now there is!

So we set up the Back Pain Institute. We're not a chiropractic clinic. Not a medical clinic. Not a physical therapy clinic. We're a multi-disciplinary practice where each of our patient teams consists of an on-site medical doctor, a chiropractor, and a physical therapist.

There's nothing like the Back Pain Institute anywhere else in California.

The VAX-D Spinal Decompression device is a patented FDA-approved therapy (facilitated by a computer and monitoring device) that enables a doctor to gently, precisely and safely put tension on the lower back and create a negative pressure inside the disc. The treatment is fast and completely painless. This negative pressure creates a vacuum effect that actually draws the bulging or "slipped" material back into the center of the disc. It also draws fluids into the disc-helping it rehydrate and heal and thereby decreasing your pain and helping you to function again.

Unlike other treatments for back pain, VAX-D technology actually heals the disc and makes it healthier. Many treatments only cover up the pain temporarily--until you aggravate your back or neck again. Not VAX-D. In a recent study done on previous Spinal Decompression patients 4 years after their treatment, researchers found that over 91% continued to be pain free.

Could Spinal Decompression with the VAX-D be your answer to ending your back and sciatic (leg) pain forever?
