We provide VAX-D Spinal Decompression Therapy

Our Vax-D treatment is an effective, safe and cost- effective procedure without the risks associated with drugs, surgery, injections or anesthesia. VAX-D treatment is backed by years of clinical research studies, and the only back and neck treatment that uses the patented smooth logarithmic curve method to distract the spine. Our new Genesis technology with multi-axis motion control and ‘biofeedback’ is light years ahead of the other decompression systems.

When you are ready for discharge, you will receive a personalized home exercise program to allow you to stay healthy on the job, further enhance your rehabilitation.

Description of Treatment

Description of Treatment
Our VAX-D is a non-invasive treatment for chronic back pain and neck pain from disc and facet joint disease. VAX-D is an effective and safe
procedure without any of the risks associated with surgery, injections, or anesthesia. Time off work or in recovery is minimal, and resolution of symptoms can be long lasting. A new study published in 2008 showed that patients had significantly improved pain and disability scores at end of treatment, at 30 days and at 180 days post-discharge.

Low back pain has become one of the most significant medical problems intoday’s world.  The statistics on the magnitude of the problem are overwhelming, and the number of chronic back cases continues to grow each day. In fact, low back pain that is related to work is the most common
complaint presented to primary care physicians and workers compensation.  VAX-D can relieve the pain associated with herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, posterior facet syndrome and radicular (nerve root) pain.

Patients can avoid the merry-go-round of drugs and non-specific treatments.  VAX-D clinics have been now been successfully operating for over 15 years in the US, as well as in Canada, Mexico, United Kingdom, Spain, Italy, Colombia, Guatemala, Thailand and Australia.

More than 3000 patients a day now receive VAX-D therapy in the US. Results from all of the independent sources (hospitals, private clinics, clinical studies) show levels of success in the range of 7+ out of 10 people. VAX-D therapy has been used by the best professional sports figures including those in the NBA, NFL, NHL, Olympic athletes and more. Today there is an entire industry of ‘spinal decompression’ devices, all based upon developments pioneered by VAX-D.  Prior to the research on negative disc pressures with VAX-D (in 1994), non-surgical decompression did not exist. VAX-D Medical Technologies patented the process known as ‘vertebral decompression’.

This ‘spinal decompression’ industry is so full of mis-information, unsubstantiated claims and marketing hype, that it is difficult to find credibility in any of the devices. Many use research done on VAX-D equipment – as though it applies to their device. Manufacturers masquerade articles about ‘decompression’ as clinical research studies. It is disconcerting that the industry has grown so large, when a search of the medical literature reveals there are no studies published in peer-reviewed medical journals on other devices. Many spinal decompression device manufacturers claim that their device will lower the intradiscal pressure. To this day, VAX-D is the only device shown in clinical research to decompress the discs to negative levels (Ramos G., Martin W. Journal of Neurosurgery). It makes you wonder how they all make this claim. VAX-D is the only medical device that delivers treatment with the patented logarithmic decompression curve!

The results with VAX-D are real, and based upon research (on our product) published in peer-reviewed medical journals.
Despite what other manufacturers would like you to believe, all decompression devices are not equally effective.
