Patient Discusses Experience With Non-Surgical Decompression In Our Clinic
I’ve written quite a bit about decompression and spinal problems for my professional point of view. I thought it might be prudent to let you hear from patient’s who once suffered serious problems… maybe just like those of you reading:
“I have been a chronic pain sufferer for well over eighteen years and although over the years I learned to cope with the pain and a reduced quality of life, within recent years my condition had become progressively worse. Due to limitations to my activities and an increased pain level, coupled with my reluctance to explore a surgical solution, I began a search for a non-surgical procedure with the hope of relieving my now very severe condition. My search led me to Dr. Podell at the Waterfront Institute for Spine and Joint Rehabilitation. I had an initial consultation early in 2009 and although I was very impressed with what I learned about spinal decompression from Dr. Podell, I still procrastinated and did not begin treatment until 6 months later.”
“MRI imaging technology confirmed that I had three herniated discs in the lumbar region of my back, with one of the disc being dehydrated. At the time the pain was excruciating. It was difficult to walk and it was especially painful to sit. Recreational activities and common chores around the house were out of the question. My pain level at the time was at 10 on a scale of 1-10. After the second week of decompression and other therapy procedures, the results were remarkable. My pain level was down to about a 3-4 and I was now able to move in ways hitherto too painful to accomplish. My response to the decompression was phenomenal.”
“I am now in the third phase of my treatment, the strengthening phase, and my pain level is down to about a 2. I started off the strengthening phase managing about 40 pounds on the machine and now I am up to 280 pounds. WOW! The progress I have made is nothing short of a miracle when I look back at my condition a few months ago. The procedure is revolutionary and its results extraordinary!”
“The staff at the Institute is remarkable. They are welcoming, caring and really concerned about their patients. Each member of the staff is devoted to the care of the patients and makes resolute efforts to ensure each patient’s comfort. Without reservation, I will recommend the Waterfront Institute of Spine and Joint Rehabilitation to anyone suffering from lower back pain.”
