I was out of options.

I would like to take a moment to thank you for exceptional treatment that has been provided to me. Your outstanding, experienced and always friendly staff has made my experience at American Back Centers a pleasant one. In particular, I would like to thank Dr. Pete who took extra steps to examine my situation and explain in extensive detail what options were available to me. I would also like to thank Tina Pracht who handled the financing and insured my treatment at American Back Centers was covered.

In addition to the help of your thoughtful staff, I would like to extend my deepest thanks to the VAX-D.

After the surgery I received in September 1997 on my lower back, I was promised by the surgeon to be pain free and I was — for about a year. After the first year, the pain slowly crept its way back in. After a few months the pain became unbearable. I sought relief from a local chiropractor who managed to help me for a few months. The pain in my lower back, however, never seemed to disappear. It wasn’t long after I began treatment that the treatment itself was failing. I was back to square one, full of pain and unable to move. It was in the beginning of April when I first heard an advertisement for American Back Centers on the radio.

At first I was skeptical. What could these people do for me? The only way to remedy failed back surgery is more surgery, right? But…

I was out of options. The pain in lower back was affecting every aspect of my life.

I called the number and explained my situation. The receptionist explained some of the procedures and emphasized their use of the Vertebral Axial Decompression (VAX-D) table. Since I’ve never heard of such a thing, she gave me a web address (www.vax-d.net) for more information. After some researching, I decided to give it a try. A wise decision.

After two weeks of therapy, I noticed a significant change in the way I felt. As therapy progressed my condition improved. After a few months of therapy with the VAX-D and regular checkups my condition is, dare I say, pain free.

I would recommend the VAX-D to anyone with low back pain, but more importantly I would recommend American Back Centers because of the personal and friendly service that was provided for me. Thank you for improving the quality of life for me.
