Don’t Take Our Word For It. Read What Our Patients, Who Had Pain Just Like Yours, Have To Say:

 I had been suffering with severe back pain for years and was dependant on large doses of narcotic pain killers just to make it through the day. After seeking help from 9 other doctors with no success, Dr. Shannahoff has given me my life back! I am so grateful.

In the past some doctors seemed more interested in my money than my problem. It was apparent to me from the beginning that Dr. Shannahoff was most interested in getting me the results I needed; to be pain free. He delivered. Before treatment I had to be careful about any kind of movement I made. Now I can move freely without any concern. I had a 7 mm disc herniation at L5/S1 and now I’m pain free, able to play with my children and work to support my family. I checked around and the Dr. Shannahoff’s program at the Valley Spinal Decompression Center is unique and the best!

I had back surgery in 1998 and knee replacement in 2005. I experienced pains and numbness from the knee down my right leg and ankle to the tips of my toes. Especially painful were the darting pains from the toes and razor blade stabbing along the arch. The knee, ankle and top of the foot were frozen in numbness. Medical doctors diagnosed these pains and numbness as originating in my lower back. The MRI showed herniated discs at L3, L4, L5 and an enlarged ligament. Dr. Shannahoff said, “I can’t make you twenty-one again” (I’m actually 77 years old), “but I can help you have a better quality of life”. He has done that and so much more! The shooting pains and razor blade sensations in the foot stopped during the DRX 9000 treatments. Much of the frozen numbness has eased in the knee and leg. As I work on the SpineForce machine (the second half of my program) the numbness lessens each week, and I become more and more active instead of being wheelchair bound.

I was out of work for three months. I had a MRI and was told I had 2 herniated discs. I saw an ad in the LA Times which ended up turning my life around. I had an appointment to see Dr. Shannahoff. I started on the DRX 9000 and had results right away. I had more movement and was less sore each day. Dr. Shannahoff and his assistant Sandy were always very professional and very nice. I would highly recommend this treatment for anyone who qualifies.

My name is Deena Vidaurri and for the better part of 15 years I have suffered from back pain. I am 46 years young now, thanks to the DRX9000! Eight weeks ago I was 46 years old, every move I made I felt as if I were 70! For the past 10 years the pain in my lower back was excruciating! I would have good days, which were few, but those good days when I actually felt up to doing any normal daily housewife routine chores, by the end of the day when I would sit down, I would literally have to be pulled out of the chair because my body would seize up and the back pain was unbearable. So the vicious cycle began, up and moving for 2 or 3 days, and down with excruciating pain for 4 or 5 days. But it got worse as I gained weight due to lack of exercise, the pain was just too bad, which added to the stress on my spine and already herniated and protruded discs therefore generating even more pain. To that, toss in the depression factor, which thankfully did not create anymore physical pain, but then how do you really describe emotional pain. So with the weight gain I started walking, tried to tolerate the pain, so I could lose some weight. From the walking, my knees and ankles became inflamed and unable to walk. Now I’m on a downward spiral, spinning out of control, being on prescription fat burners with terrible side effects and then on prescription antidepressants for my emotional stress, and steroid epidural block injections for pain management. The first 3 injections helped for about 6 months, the next three helped for about 2 weeks. Finally, my healthcare provider referred me to a neuro-surgeon, which to me was not an option I wanted to pursue. That’s when I responded to the newspaper ad my husband had found a few weeks prior for a “free report” for back pain sufferers. I scheduled to see if I was a candidate for Dr. Bruce Shannahoff’s proprietary DRX9000 Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Treatments. I knew the minute the minute I left Dr. Shannahoff’s office that this was a treatment worth pursuing. I had already spent several hours researching my condition from the information revealed in my MRI and the treatments available. My consultation with Dr. Shannahoff only reinforced all the information I had already accumulated. I had already sent my research information about the articles and research done on the DRX9000 to my doctor. He in turn informed me that he found the articles and research to be reputable. My doctor also spoke with Dr. Shannahoff on the phone at which time Dr. Shannahoff informed my doctor that he thought I would be a good candidate for the DRX9000. My visit with Dr. Shannahoff was so reassuring and very informative; his very presence was that of genuine care and concern. So the treatment began. Wow!!! By the third treatment I was pretty much pain free! Each session I either chatted with Dr. Bruce, watched old comedy shows, took a nap, or listened to some soothing music. A week and a half out of treatment I have walked more than 30 miles! I live in the desert north of Los Angeles near the mountains, so 30 miles is not only miles, it is miles uphill!!! And at 2 weeks out of treatment I am down 10 lbs. The weight is falling off with no change in diet, just being able to exercise is making it happen. I am so fortunate! There’s not any amount of miles I would not drive or walk for the opportunity to have a healthy back again. The DRX9000 made it possible for the healing to begin, and Dr. Bruce has given me the tools and added knowledge for continued healing and to continue to strengthen. I no longer have to learn to live with the pain; I have learned how to be pain free. The DRX9000 treatments and Dr. Bruce Shannahoff are priceless!

I had sciatica in the back and right leg. An MRI showed 3 herniated discs, one pressing on the sciatic nerve. A pain level of 8 on a scale 10. I tried traditional chiropractic treatments, but they only helped for a couple of days at a time. Spinal Decompression was a painless procedure with immediate relief. I started treatment in August 2007 and now in December 2007 I STILL HAVE NO SCIATIC PAIN. Everyone [at Valley Spinal Decompression Center] was friendly and truthful about the treatment. This is much better than surgery and I could even continue working during the period of my treatments, unlike surgery!
