What is Vax-D Treatment Treatable and Non-Treatable Conditions Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT IS VAX-D?

VAX-D, not to be confused with traction, lengthens and decompresses the spine, reversing the high intradiscal pressures through the application of negative pressure via a patented "slow ramp-up" process. This reversal of pressure creates a vacuum inside the discs, that not only takes pressure off of pinched nerves, but helps to reposition bulging discs and pull extruded disc material back into place. Simultaneously, nutrients, oxygen and fluids are drawn into the disc to create a revitalized environment coducive to healing.

VAX-D simulates the body's repair mechanism, providing the building blocks needed to actually mend injured and degenerated discs. VAX-D's process is the only patented treatment clinically proven to decrease disc pressure to the negative levels needed to facilitate healing!

TRUST THE ORIGINAL, PATENTED VAX-D
Vax-D's proven and patented technology is currently being utilized by leading physicians in orthopedic medicine, pain medicine, neurology and other specialties in hundreds of clinics around the world. Many doctors choose VAX-D over other devices because it employs the original, patented technology from which decompression therapy was born. VAX-D makes a commitment to back pain sufferers to offer an honest product backed by clinical research. We give you real science with real results.

VAX-D is the only medical device that delivers treatment with the patented logarithmic decompression curve. VAX-D can relieve the pain associated with herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, posterior facet syndrome and radicular (nerve root/leg) pain. Now, specialists and primary care physicians can effectively manage acute and chronic low back problems conservatively and effectively in their own offices. Patients can avoid the costly and time consuming merry-go-round of drugs and non-specific treatments like bed-rest, physical therapy, injections, and others.

It is known that the many forms of ‘traction’ and gravity inversion have not demonstrated the ability to lower the intradiscal pressure. Clinical study has now documented VAX-D’s ability to lower intradiscal pressure (Ramos G., Martin W. Journal of Neurosurgery). Decompression of the discs and spinal structures is achieved under precisely controlled, monitored conditions with no disruption of the spines normal biomechanics.

VAX-D clinics have been now been successfully operating for over ten years in the US, as well as in Canada, Puerto Rico, Mexico and Australia. More than 3000 patients a day now receive VAX-D therapy in the US. Studies on the efficacy from all of the independent sources (hospitals, private clinics, clinical studies) consistently report similar levels of success in the range of 70%.

VAX-D therapy has been used by the best professional sports figures including those in the NBA, NFL, NHL, Major League Baseball, Olympic athletes and many others. Public recognition and demand for access to VAX-D therapy, along with acceptance by primary care physicians and specialists is driving the expansion of VAX-D centers, and is compelling health insurance companies to consider VAX-D as the standard of care.
