About VAX-D®

All treatments are administered with patients fully clothed. However, two-piece clothing, that separates at the waist and can be loosened at the wrists, is the most comfortable.

The VAX-D® Treatment Table is protected by patents issued in the U.S. and Internationally.

Contact your insurance provider for assistance regarding payment for VAX-D® treatment.

 


What is VAX-D® Treatment?

VAX-D® is a non-surgical treatment developed for the management of disabling low back pain.

VAX-D® Treatment is designed to relieve pressure on structures that may be causing low back pain. It relieves the pain associated with herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, posterior facet syndrome and radicular pain.

VAX-D® achieves its effects through decompression of intervertebral discs and facet joints, that is, unloading due to distraction and positioning on the VAX-D® Table.

This breakthrough was developed by Dr. Allen Dyer, former Deputy Minister of Health who pioneered research on the heart defibrillator used around the world. Research to develop the treatment was conducted over a period of six years with the combined efforts of physicians, engineers and technicians at major teaching hospitals.

 


Can VAX-D® work for you?

VAX-D® Treatment provides relief for patients suffering from the common causes of low back pain and radicular pain. These conditions include discs that are herniated or degenerated, as well as posterior facet syndromes.

Many people with these diagnoses experience relief of their pain. Posterior facet syndromes respond to distraction achieved through VAX-D® Treatment.

A VAX-D® clinic practitioner will determine your course of treatment and whether or not you are a candidate.

Patients with certain conditions such as tumors, fractures, gross osteoporosis or pars defects-grade II are not candidates for this treatment.
