| "Would you buy a Hyundai based on Volvo safety rating?" |
"No! So, when someone quotes you VAX-D research and then shows you a different table, DO NOT EXPECT THE SAME RESULTS"
Due to the unprecedented success of VAX-D with low back pain there are many Copy-Cat machines quoting VAX-D research. Beware of other traditional traction tables that advertise as decompression. VAX-D is patented technology that is cleared by the FDA. It has published RESULTS and proven decompression of the disc (study #1 below.)
Ask any doctor to see the research! Every week, I see patients who have tried other so-called "decompression" tables. Be careful what they are selling you. |
VAX-D Medical Studies & Publications. |
1. Journal of Neurosurgery (Vol. 81: 350-353, 1994) Effects of Vertebral Axial Decompression on Intradiscal Pressure University of Texas, San Antonio, TX
|
| RESULTS: proof that VAX-D creates a negative intradiscal pressure force up to -160mmHg. |
|
| |
2. Journal of Neurological Research (Vol. 26, April 2004) Efficacy of Vertebral Axial Decompression on Chronic Low Back Pain Dr. Gustav Ramos, Valley Neurological Center, McAllen, Texas
|
| RESULTS: This 744 patient study showed 76% achieved remission of pain. Except in emergent conditions, VAX-D should be used on all patients before surgery is undertaken. |
|
| |
3. Canadian Journal of Clinical Medicine (Vol. 5, No.1, January 1998) The Effects of VAX-D on Sensory Nerve Dysfunction in Patients with Low Back Pain and Radiculopathy by Tilaro & Miscovich
|
| RESULTS: The average pain reduction was 77%. |
|
| |
4. Journal of Neurological Research (Vol. 20, No.3, April 1998) Vertebral Axial Decompression Therapy for Pain Associated with Herniated or Degenerative Discs or Facet Syndrome: Outcome Study of 778 Cases Gose E., Ph.D, Naguszewski w., MD, Naguszewski R, MD
|
RESULTS: The authors consider VAX-D to be a primary modality for low back pain for lumbar herniations at single and multiple levels, degenerative discs and facet arthropathy, and decreased spinal mobility. |
|
 |
5. Anesthesiology News, (Vol. 29, No.3, March 2003) VAX-D Reduces Chronic Discogenic Low Back Pain- 4 year Study Robert H Odell, M.D, Ph.D, Daniel A Boudreau, D.O.
|
| RESULTS: Four year follow-up after VAX-D treatment shows a sustained 86% reduction in pain and that 91% of patients resumed their normal activities. |
|
| |
6. Neurological Research Journal (Vol. 23, p. 706-714, October 2001) Dermatosomal Somatosensory Evoked Potential Demonstration of Nerve Root Decompression after VAX-D Therapy William K. Naguszewski, M.D, Robert K. Naguszewski, M.D, Coosa Medical Group, Earl E. Gose, Ph.D; Dept. of Neurology Dept. of Bioengineering, University of Illinois
|
| RESULTS: Pain reduction in the study group was 77% with successful decompression of the nerve roots at multiple levels. |
|

7. Neurological Research Journal (Vol. 23, p. 780-784, October 2001) A Prospective Randomized Controlled Study of VAX-D and Tens for the Treatment of Chronic Low Back Pain Department of Orthopedics, Sydney University, Eugene Sherry, MD., F.RAC.S., Peter Kitchener, MB.B.S. FRANZCR, Russel Smart, MB, ChB.
|
| RESULTS: Significant reduction in pain and improvement in functional outcome was obtained in patients with chronic low back pain treated with VAX-D. |
|
| |
8. Canadian Journal of Clinical Medicine (Vol. 6, No.1, January 1999) An Overview of Vertebral Axial Decompression by Frank Tilaro, MD.
|
| RESULTS: VAX-D is significantly capable of influencing sensory nerve dysfunction associated with a compressive radiculopathy. Complete remission was achieved by 73% of the study group. |
|
| |
9. Journal of Orthopedic & Sports Physical Therapy (Vol. 35, No.1, January 2005) Short and Long-term Outcomes Following Treatment with the Vax-D Protocol for Patients with Chronic, Activity-limiting Low Back Pain University of South Carolina, Columbia, SC; Lebanon Valley College, Lancaster, PA; Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, VA
|
| RESULTS: Significant improvements in a sample of patients with unfavorable prognosis due to chronic low back pain. |
