My
name is Kelly Call. I came Back in Motion Spinal Decompression
Center to treat my back and leg pain. I found out
that I had a lumbar disc herniation causing the sciatica.
I decided to try the DRX9000 Spinal Decompression
program. Before the treatment my pain levels were
severe and I could not walk, sleep in my bed and it
was very difficult to do simple tasks like putting
my clothes on. In addition, I had a severe tilt of
my body to the right. I have completed the treatment
and I am relatively pain free, I have full function
and no longer have sciatica. It is nice to be able
to do the things you take for granted.

I
recently came to see Dr. DeSalvo for an injury caused
by an auto accident.
About five years ago I fell at work and injured my
neck. I found out I had a herniated disc in my neck
and this caused pain to radiate down my arm and into
my hand. The recent car accident aggravated my neck
pain and arm pain. Dr DeSalvo treated me with the
Myokinesthetic System and my neck pain and arm pain
is now 80% better after only 10 sessions.
I
am very thankful for finding Dr. DeSalvo; he has made
my life so much better. I can now move my neck, and
bend over without any trouble. I am stronger, more
flexible and work is easier. I sleep better and my
husband has noticed that I am much happier.

Before
I was a patient of Dr DeSalvo, I was in an accident
some years ago and so as a result had surgery on my
right femur. I never received physical therapy and
walked with my right foot severely pointing to the
right. Now after over 10 years my lower back started
giving me sleepless nights of pain and it hurt to
stand, sit, even lie down in certain positions. I
came to Dr DeSalvo and he immediately assessed what
was wrong, started the Myokinesthetic program and
I immediately felt relief! I sang his praises to every
body I knew who I thought could benefit and he received
2 referrals including my mom! I had treatment for
4 weeks and now I can sit and stand for long periods,
sleep soundly, and my foot is actually starting to
point straight even when the Doctors informed me that
I may never walk straight! I feel like I'm walking
on air when I leave his office.
Thanks Dr DeSalvo!

Approximately
12 years ago, I ruptured a disc at L4/L5 and had a
discectomy performed. Over the last twelve years I've
felt a large amount of scar tissue around my surgical
incision. This tissue flet very tight and sore to
the touch. Additionly, I had an MRI and was told I
have severe degenerative disc disease and several
bulging discs.
About
5 months ago I started experiencing thigh pain and
a burning sensation dowm my right leg. My lower back
has felt very tight and somewhat sore for years.
In
early December Istarted receiving back decompression
treatments. Small, but noticeable improvements started
within the first week of treatment. These improvements
continued throughout the entire 8 week program. I
attribute this treatment regime to the following:
1.
Lower back tightness and soreness-98% improved.
2. 2. Tightness from mass of scar tissue completely
eliminated.
3. Leg pain and burning sensation-95% eliminated.
Yesterday,
I had an aggressive 5 mile (2 hour) hike over very
hilly terrain. When I awoke this morning, my back
and leg felt better than they felt in over 6 months.
I haven't been able to walk over this terrain and
experience no pain in over 6 months. I can't wait
to resume golf, biking and more hiking!

"I
have been suffering for over ten years prior to coming
to your office. I was a fireman for 20+ years. I became
disabled due to 2 severe injuries causing neck and
lower back disc herniations. The worker's compensation
doctors gave up on me. Prior to starting treatment,
I was in severe pain in my neck and lower back along
with leg and arm pain. I could not function and had
to take medication to relieve my pain, which made
me very tired and irritable. I started treatment with
lumbar decompression. Dr. DeSalvo and his associate
were very helpful and my pain levels dropped over
75%. "
"Thanks for giving me my life back!"

"I
came to the clinic because I had constant lower back
pain and leg pain. I have tried pain pills, ice, and
rest. I have been to other doctors without result.
I am a teacher and have been unable to return to work.
The results of the treatment, non-surgical lumbar
decompression, have been great. My husband has noticed
and I am now able to return to some form of work.
Thanks for getting me back on my feet."

"I
had severe neck pain, and after several sessions with
Dr. DeSalvo, I can say with total confidence that
my pain is 100% gone. I believe he is very competent
in his field, and I would not hesitate to recommend
him to anyone."?- David Matsumoto, Director of
Training, USA Olympic Judo
"After I threw my neck out lifting weights, I
went to Dr. DeSalvo for a thorough exam and consultation.
He thoroughly explained his findings, and his manipulation
brought an immediate reduction in pain and spasm.
I will refer other patients to him."?- Frank

"I
would like to thank you for the help you have given
me. After suffering with my back, off and on, for
a number of years it is nice to be able to move and
train for the triathlons that I compete in. Actually
I wasn't able to train before I started coming to
your office. Coaching swimmers at the University of
California, Berkeley, we are always looking for ways
to increase performance. With my understanding of
the help that I have received personally, I understand
why so many athletes use your services to help them
in their respective sports."

"I
have been suffering with constant lower back pain
for the last five years or so. Back in the Summer
I started getting severe pains in my neck and my shoulder…
When I walked in I was impressed by the warm greeting
from the ladies at the front desk and the doctors.
My first appointment was set for the next day. The
doctor gave his explanation of my x-rays and the treatment
plan proposed convinced me that I was in the hands
of real experts…
Now, after 4 months of treatment, my pains have almost
disappeared. I'm actually feeling a little sad because
I'll miss the attention, concern, and friendship all
of you have offered me over the last few months.
Thanks again for all you've done for me. I will be
sure to let all of my friends and students know about
the wonderful work all of you do in treating mind,
body and spirit…"

"I was born with scoliosis so I've been in constant
pain for as long as I can remember. Then just recently
I was in a car accident that hurt my back worse than
it already was. After the accident I was told to go
to Dr. DeSalvo's office. On my first visit I met with
him and he went over my condition with me in great
detail. I started receiving treatment and now I feel
better than I have ever felt before. My pain is almost
gone. I am really happy I started treatment and I
wish I had done it a long time ago. I enjoy going
not only because it makes me feel better, but also
everyone there is very friendly and helpful. Thank
you guys. Keep up the good work."

"I
was told that I was going to need surgery to improve
my neck and arm pain/numbness. Dr. DeSalvo diagnosed
my problem in my spine and began treatment. Your treatment
has helped me and I am glad that I now don't have
to have surgery."
