Everytime I saw a patient getting on or off the bed, I would ask them if they had success. Most did, which gave me hope. I personally am starting to think that maybe if the problem is caught early on, before the disc degenerates too much, it might work--or if it is just an alignment problem--it could work. I think my disc is probably "too dead" after 3 years. The Dr. first told me it would take 60 treatments. After 60 treatments, she says, "a minimum of 60 treatments" but I would think after 3-4 months I would have felt something? I'd hate it if I walked away too soon but I can't afford to keep wasting money on stuff. I'm already about 70k in the medical bills for stuff that hasn't worked. The dr. offered me the synaptic therapy for free (wants me to be the success-story spokesperson if she heals me) but I guess it is more like a stronger version of the TENS unit. My "conservative" dr. thinks it could just give temporary relief but not a cure....
