“In November 2008 a patient of mine retired from playing professional soccer for
16 years. She returned the U.S. and presented to my office in extreme pain and antalgia.
Her lumbar MRI showed two severe herniations at L4-5 and L5-S1. I was very concerned
and decided to purchase the vertetrac after reading about it. I began to use the
vertetrac daily starting at 3 minutes at 2 mph on the treadmill after using my cold
laser and performing ART to the appropriate muscles. She also needed a trial of 3
epidural injections which gave her enough pain relief to receive the therapy (she
only felt relief after the first epidural, the remaining two did not provide any
further relief). Over several months of care she improved to the point of being able
to coach soccer and live pain free. She uses the vertetrac periodically for maintenance
care and is continuing coach.
I have used the vertetrac with many disc herniation patients with great results.
I have a small disc herniation at L4-L5 and use the vertetrac after heavy deadlifts.
Instead of feeling a bit stiff the next day, I have no pain and really feel like
I did not even lift the day before. At 50 years old, this is a great feeling.
Thank you Meditrac for a wonderful therapy!”

"I am writing to describe my personal experience with your Vertetrac product. I began
to experience acute sciatica and nearly-paralyzing low-back spasms around 1985. Since
that time I have worked or consulted with 9 chiropractors, 4 orthopedic doctors,
and 3 orthopedic surgeons. Throughout I was determined to learn to manage the weakness
and to avoid surgery. In an ongoing effort to take the pressure off my herniated
L5 disk, I have tried traction tables, tilt (gravity) tables, aggressive physical
therapy, manual traction, leg-pulling, hip blocking, and Cox tables. None of these
made any significant difference beyond a few hours of temporary relief. Around 1995,
Dr. Weinstein recommended that I try the Vertetrac device in conjunction with rehabilitation
exercises on machines that strengthen and balance the musculature of the torso. The
Vertetrac device seemed counterintuitive to me because it appeared to me (an engineer)
that more weight was being applied than was being released. So it was with genuine
astonishment when I found that the device produced profound and extended relief after
just one 15-minute session. After half a dozen Vertetrac sessions, accompanied by
the rehab program, I was virtually pain free and my back was quite stable. On the
few occasions since that time when I’ve re-injured the area, the same protocol gives
me relief and facilitates rapid healing -- within two weeks rather than four to six
months with the older treatments. I have been surprised at how few chiropractors
are aware of your product. A lot of people could avoid back surgery with this device
-- because they can find relief under their own power within two weeks and do not
have to pin their hopes on the surgeon."

"I want to thank you so much for the Vertetrac you sent me. It is such a miracle
invention for Scoliosis sufferers, it is God-send, I walk better, have much less
pain now and I can enjoy life a little more now... I feel my back (spine) is straighter
and definitely has less pressure with the brace use."
