First Good Night’s Sleep

  Posts Posted by drmark under Auto Accident, Neck Pain, Shoulder Pain, Testimonials on Friday, January 23rd, 2009 11:53 am

Before seeing Dr. Prather I was in severe pain in my neck and shoulders. Some days I was unable to perform even daily tasks. If you measure pain on a scale from 1-10 I was a 15! I was affected in a very negative way. Life was very bleak. I tried the medical route with medication, a MRI and therapy but nothing worked. There was no change in the pain level and sometimes even made it worse. Every aspect of my health is SO much improved due to Dr. Prather’s care. The quality of my life both at work and play is 100% improved. After my first visit with Dr. Prather I had my first good nights sleep in years. He is an angel.

Just Waiting To Die…Now I Have Hope

  Posts Posted by drmark under Chronic Back Pain, Hip Pain, Sciatica, Testimonials on Friday, January 23rd, 2009 11:52 am

Before hearing about LCD Spinal Rejuvenation, I had been living with this debilitating back pain for over 10 years. The pain would move from my low back to my hips and then into my sciatica nerves. The pain got so bad that I was almost in a wheel chair. I couldn’t do anything! I became very depressed, sometimes I just felt like crying. I could no longer bend or walk, I couldn’t even lay in my own bed. I spent all of my time in my recliner. So in turn I gained a lot of weight. I had been a carpenter for over 30 years. I had to retire from my job due to pain. I ended up going to Kaiser and asked them to please do surgery. The doctors told me that I was not a candidate for any surgery because I probably wouldn’t survive. I was just waiting to die. After I began my Spinal Decompression Program, I started feeling relief! Finally, I was able to walk and bend. Something I haven’t been able to do for over 10 years. I am now able to go on mile walks with my wife, Sandy. I feel like I have hope. Instead of waiting to die, I want to live!!!

Auto Accident Makes Me Feel Like An Old Man

  Posts Posted by drmark under Auto Accident, Chronic Back Pain, Neck Pain, Testimonials on Friday, January 23rd, 2009 11:49 am

After my car accident I suffered with painful movement of my head and neck everyday. Work was difficult and I couldn’t pick up weight plates at the gym. I was waking up every morning feeling like an old man. Since coming to Dr. Prather I have restored range of motion. And best of all no pain when I bend or work out at the gym. I know that thru my care I have better alignment so I can avoid arthritis at a later age. The doctors here are amazing. They were able to heal my back pains with the need for surgery. And the staff creates a warm environment for us patients.

My Doctors Failed Me

  Posts Posted by drmark under Chronic Back Pain, Hip Pain, Sciatica, Testimonials on Friday, January 23rd, 2009 11:48 am

About one year ago I began to feel some pain in my low back. It began as a mild tolerable pain, so I imagined it would go away. Then one day I felt the pain radiate down to my right hip. I couldn’t sleep properly and I couldn’t even walk like I usually did. I would always wake up having slept only a few hours. This pain really affected my mood and even made me irritable at times. I started going to my regular MD who told me I had a mild disc protrusion, but for that I only received pain medication and that didn’t seem to help much. Then when I went back to my doctor I asked for physical therapy and all he did was give me a book and no one showed me how to do the exercises. I became very upset; I felt my doctors failed to help me like they should have! Finally, I found Inland Back & Neck Pain in the newspaper and came in for a consultation. After a few treatments I began to feel some relief. I have been walking 3 to 4 blocks now and I definitely have less sciatic pain. My pain is not completely gone but I feel much better! The doctor and the staff were very caring and compassionate!

Unable to Golf

  Posts Posted by drmark under Auto Accident, Neck Pain, Shoulder Pain, Testimonials on Friday, January 23rd, 2009 11:46 am

Before coming to Dr. Prather my activity level had decreased greatly following a car accident. I had pain in my right shoulder, right knee and neck pain. The pain was so severe I was unable to do the things I love like working on my lawn, playing golf or even just walking. Since Dr. Prather’s care I’ve experienced improved posture, increased activity level and of course improvement in my pain. I can now bend and squat normally. And did I mention less pain!

Back To Normal

  Posts Posted by drmark under Neck Pain, Shoulder Pain, Testimonials on Friday, January 23rd, 2009 11:45 am

I had been suffering with severe neck pain and right arm pain for over a year. The pain radiated from the right side of my neck to my right shoulder and down my right arm. The pain was so horrible! I didn’t get any rest at all. I was so frustrated! The pain affected my life so much. I was extremely irritable. I couldn’t focus on anything or even concentrate. It hurt to write, eat, and drive. It decreased my activity because I had to depend on others to drive me to appointments and other places because of the pain medications that I was taking. I tried a variety of different things to relieve my pain. I had physical therapy but that only helped about 50%. I also tried acupressure and massage, but that gave little relief. I also took pain medication and that only relieved my pain for a short time. After beginning my treatment at Inland Back & Neck Pain Relief, I have relief from my pain! I have the ability to take care of myself again. I am back to normal now!

Cured My Back Problems

  Posts Posted by drmark under Chronic Back Pain, Testimonials on Friday, January 23rd, 2009 11:42 am

Before coming to see Dr. Prather I had a bad back which severely limited my activities. I found it very hard to get out of bed in the morning, I was unable to lift, bend over and stand from a seated position. Since I was injured on the job the insurance company sent me to an orthopedic doctor. He gave me pain pills and muscle relaxers which only gave me temporary help. My back pain has much improved. No more spasms and I’m able to get back to semi normal activities. Dr. Prather’s care has simply cured my back problems for about 2 years.

Now, 100% Better

  Posts Posted by drmark under Chronic Back Pain, Sciatica, Testimonials on Friday, January 23rd, 2009 11:41 am

In 1999, I started having severe lower back pain and right leg pain. It became so severe that I would even experience a periodic loss of leg control. The pain definitely limited my outside activities and made it harder to get tasks completed since walking and bending caused the most pain. By the spring of 2000 my pain was so severe that my doctor recommended surgery. I later canceled the surgery when a friend suggested Decompression Therapy. I made an appointment and began treatments and was completely pain free for some time. But when the pain returned I knew Decompression would help me again. I began maintenance level treatments at Inland Back & Neck Pain Relief. I am now 100% better! The LCD treatments strengthened my back muscles and my pain has decreased. I am very satisfied!

Tailored & Effective Care

  Posts Posted by drmark under Auto Accident, Neck Pain, Testimonials on Friday, January 23rd, 2009 11:39 am

Immediately following my car accident I went to see my family physician and he gave me anti-inflammatory and muscle relaxing drugs. The next day I still felt so much pain and stiffness that I couldn’t care for my children, much less be alert enough on medication to take care of accident details. I called Dr. Prather’s office and they told me to come in right away. I learned how the crash had affected my body, and I continue to receive tailored and effective care. Dr. Prather and the staff are very sympathetic and alert to my symptoms. My pain is now tolerable and I feel that I am getting better through this treatment.

Even Surgery Didn’t Help

  Posts Posted by drmark under Chronic Back Pain, Testimonials on Friday, January 23rd, 2009 11:37 am

Before discovering LCD Spinal Rejuvenation, my back hurt constantly for over 25 years. I walked with a limp and I waddled. The only way I could get any kind of relief was to take vicadin and lay down. The pain made me very tired and irritable. I had to stay home most of the time and I needed to lay down a lot. I tried so many different things to relieve my pain. I had chiropractic care, I went to an osteopath, I had epidural shots, pain medications, and I tried exercising but the relief was short lived. I even had back surgery about 6 years ago and believe it or not, it did not help at all! After starting mySpinal Rejuvenation treatment program, I started noticing a difference. I have so much more energy! After all of these years of constant pain, I was finally getting some relief. I can walk without waddling! I feel great!
