"I was having severe low back pain that caused me not to be able to stand for a long time. It was also causing me pain when I sat down in a chair for a long time. I couldn't stand or walk over 10 minutes. After that the pain would set in and my back would lock up. I had pain medication from my doctor and went to see a chiropractor. Then I had an MRI and I found out that I had a herniated disc that was pressing on a nerve. After the treatment, I have 0 pain now. I have no pain at all so I feel great. Walking, sitting and standing is back to normal now. I can walk 1 or 2 miles. When I sit it doesn't hurt anymore. I feel like I'm back to normal. I wasn't skeptical because I was in so much pain I was willing to try anything to avoid back surgery. If you're suffering from any type of back pain I would say definitely try this procedure. Back pain is definitely no joke. I couldn't comprehend what other people with back pain were going through. Now I know what they're going through". Joanne Dorsey, Stone Mountain |
"I had lower back pain and pain in the buttocks and down both legs. I couldn't stand up straight for very long. Today it's much, much better. I can get around much better than I have in quite some time. I'm at least 85 to 90% better since I started the treatment. I was skeptical about the treatment but I would rather try this than surgery. My improvement was a gradual thing- it wasn't overnight. Now I can bend and stay bent over, like if I am working on a project. I'm glad I did the treatment. I would recommend the treatment whole-heartedly for lower back pain". Baskin Colbert, Stone Mountain |
“I had an acute lumbar strain and then, later, an MRI scan which showed a herniated disc contacting the right nerve root. It was a sharp, shooting pain on the right side, just constantly, constantly down my right leg to my foot. It was constant, day in and day out. It started September of 2006- more than a year ago. I had physical therapy and anti-inflammatory medicines and saw a chiropractor and then I had 3 epidural injections. The epidurals helped very minimally and very short-lived. I have a high pain tolerance. It was an annoying, stabbing, pesky pain down my right leg. I was so used to it; I had modified the way I did all my activities. Honestly, at first I was skeptical of the decompression treatment because I had done all the other treatment options that I was aware of. I went online and had read some of the testimonials. I figured I had nothing to lose as long as it couldn’t hurt me. I think after the first five treatments I noticed a slight bit of improvement but it was still annoying. It wasn’t until I had a good 20 treatments under my belt that I noticed real improvement. I kind of plateaued at about 15 to 20 treatments. Now the pain is a 0 in my low back and an occasional 0.05 in my right leg. Now, after 28 treatments, I am upwards of 95% better but I haven’t yet started to do all my normal activities, so I’m still being careful”. Amy Goff, Tucker, GA |
"I've been experiencing back pain about 3 or 4 years. The last couple of years it's been worse and the doctors told me, "It's only going to get worse". I've got three herniated discs. And they were right. Every time it gets worse and worse. This last time it got so bad I couldn't get out of bed for at least two weeks. It took me about two months to get back to work and I was still in alot of pain. I worked for a few weeks and then it got worse again. I was told by a doctor, "Don't do back surgery until you can't stand the pain." I was told the only things I could do for my back were pain meds, epidurals or surgery. I called to look for an epidural and I found Backstrong Clinic. I came and within a week the back and leg pain went away completely- I didn't have any pain at all. It's been about two weeks now and I feel it just a little bit- that's it still there- but there's no pain at all. I'm an electrician and I crawl around houses and when I do I tell myself, "this is going to be the test". I crawl over pipes and all kinds of places and I crawl out and there's no pain! I had pain down the sciatic nerve all the way down to the top of my left foot and the back of my calf. I was all bent over and twisted when I came for treatment. I couldn't stand up straight. I was told by another doctor that only medications, epidurals and surgery were my options. I forgot what it was like to not have any pain. I think people are crazy if they don't try this treatment. I was all twisted and couldn't stand up straight. It kept me in the bed for weeks and I couldn't work. Doctors had me on all kind of medicine. Now I don't take any medicine at all. I was skeptical of the treatment but when you're facing surgery it made sense to me". Guy Bosworth, Fairburn, GA

"I was having lower back pain that went down my left leg. It was an 8-9/10 and had been like that for two to three months. I was bent over and crooked when I started treatment here. The treatment was very simple and not painful at all. In a few sessions the pain was going away. I was taking 2-3 hydrocodone daily. Now the pain has been gone for a week or so. If you want relief this is the way to go. I would recommend the treatment. I couldn't play with the kids or lift before the treatment. Now I can play with my kids." Thomas Willey, Doraville, GA

“I came here because I had, probably, a pinched nerve because I had really severe sciatica down my leg and in my hip I had some pain. I had been to other places but nothing was really helping me so I came here. Someone suggested using the decompression table. I had another problem that I went to the Mayo Clinic for, but no one could find out what it was and no one could help me. But this treatment has helped it. When I would sit down or lie down for a length of time, when I would get up my leg would just be stiff and I couldn’t even get up straight, and it would take me 3 or 4 minutes to get straight up, and it would take 5 minutes before I could really walk good. Now since I’ve had this treatment, I get up completely straight and I can walk within a minute or 30 seconds. That’s what I’m really happy about too. I still have a little bit of a problem but it’s helped tremendously. I had that problem about 4 years. I had all kinds of MRI’s and went to the Mayo Clinic and nobody seemed to know what was wrong with me. I think this is a great treatment because it has helped. The Mayo clinic said I had to live with it. They didn’t try to see if there was anything that could help it. The back pain and sciatica is 100% better. The stiffness in the leg is 60% better. I would definitely recommend the treatment to others. I was ready to try anything to see if it would help me. The treatment made sense to me, to stretch the spine. I no longer take medications. I was taking Ibuprofen several times a day. I had previous back surgery”. Betty Schulte, Tucker, GA

"When I came here I had low back and leg pain and trouble going up the stairs. My MRI scan showed a protruding disc in my low back. I did an epidural injection and it didn't help. My pain was an 8/10 and I was on pain medicine daily. This treatment is the nearest thing to a miracle I've seen in my time. I tell anyone I highly recommend it. It was well worth it. The service here was excellent- I can't find words to describe it. It was very professional, efficient and prompt". Harry Crosland, Decatur.

"I have scoliosis and I was having alot of severe, lower back pain and muscle spasms. I have had the problem since 2006. I've done physiotherapy and rehab and worked with my athletic trainer. They helped for a while. Since doing this treatment. I felt better after the first treatment here. I usually have back pain when I sit up in the morning. Now I'm not having any pain in the morning. I'm not having pain anymore. I would say this treatment is very, very, very beneficial". Nikitris Deloach, Rex. |
"I was having lower back and right leg pain down into the foot. I had a herniated disc pushing on a nerve. The pain was a constant 10 out of 10. I had the problem for three months before I came to Backstrong. This treatment was the easiest thing I ever did. You hardly feel it working but you feel the results. I had chiropractic and it didn't help. This treatment helped 95%. I am a diesel mechanic and missed about six weeks of work. I am back to work now and enjoying it. I recommend the treatment and am trying to get two friends in here now for treatment. Before treatment I couldn't bend, stand prolonged, sit or lay down comfortably. Now I can do it all". Jerome Gregory, Stone Mountain. |
“I was having excruciating pain in my hip and down my leg to my ankle. The pain was 8 to 10 out of 10 in severity. I was taking anti-inflammatory medications without any relief. The x-rays showed two degenerated discs. The treatment didn’t help right away. As time went on the pain improved. Now I only occasionally have a little soreness in the hip- nothing severe; maybe a 2 or less out of 10. Overall, I feel 99 and ¾% better”. Joanne Brenneman, Canton, GA. |
“I couldn’t walk. I was having sciatica in both legs and I was just about not able to walk. My MRI showed bulging discs at L-3-4-5. My pain was excruciating in the sciatic nerves. I had therapy and had been to several neurosurgeons and pain management doctors. Previous therapy aggravated it and I had four injections. They helped for about three or four days and then I had the same pain again. I had the pain for more than a year. This treatment has allowed me to walk again and now I have no left leg pain and my right leg is less than 1 out of 10. They’re at least 90% better. I definitely recommend the treatment to others. It’s the best treatment I’ve ever done for my back.” James West, Gainesville.

“I was having pain in my left leg that was a 10 out of 10 coming from my sciatic nerve going into my left foot. I was very limited and had constant pain when I walked. I now feel 97% better. My mobility is very good. I can walk 4 and one half miles a day now without pain. I would definitely recommend the treatment to others”. Joel Buissereth, Morrow
