I had fractured the upper part of my low back and even after surgery I was still getting excruciating pain and spasms that practically knocked me to the floor.
I couldn’t go anywhere or do anything without fear that my back would freeze up on me. I had to keep two canes close at hand in case I was suddenly unable to hold myself up.
My doctor tried epidural injections two different times, but the pain only went away temporarily. They surgeon told me I needed surgery for my discs, but I knew I didn’t want it. Even if the operation was successful, I dreaded the hospital stay and the weeks of home confinement. That’s when a friend raved to me about Dr. Ron Lavine.
My sister had had good results with Lumbar Decompression Therapy, and when Dr. Lavine told me that my condition qualified for the treatment, I was ready to give it a try.
At first I wasn ’t sure if it was helping or not, but before long I knew I had made the right choice! The pain and spasms are gone. Surgery is the last thing on my mind!
