Testimony of a client healed thanks to the SpineMED neurovertebral decompression table
I would like to tell you the story of my injury that led me to a family chiropractic consultation in Saint Rose.
I had sciatic nerve pain that had been going on for about 2 years. Pain in my buttocks that went all the way down to my knee as well as numbness in my toes.
The only thing that made me feel better was taking anti-inflammatories, like Laproxin combined with Tylenols.
These pains were constant and present in my daily life. They were quite disturbing, especially when sitting for a long time in the car or during meals.
At some point I got fed up, so I decided to try treatment. A friend of mine told me about the clinic and the neuro spinal decompression.
In fact, it is a treatment where the person is on a table, his pelvis and trunk fixed with velcro. This leads to small stretches at intervals with a rest to remove pressure.
Therefore, I decided to come here and meet the chiropractor Michelle Bernachez. She advised me to go for a MRI to find out exactly what my problem was. The result was that I had a herniated disc.
So I decided to go ahead and do this neuro spinal decompression treatment for relieve pain related to a herniated disc.
Besides, I knew I had nothing left to lose, because I had tried everything!
The results were instantaneous!
From the very first treatments, a first symptom which was numbness in the toes disappeared. Moreover, it has never returned to this day.
Afterwards, the pain gradually decreased. Today, I can say that I have no more pain and I am in a good mood again! If I had known this before, I would have consulted here a long time ago!
My advice to anyone who has back pain would be to stop waiting!
Come in as soon as possible for decompression treatment. We have access to new technologies.
The table of SpineMED neurovertebral decompressioncombined with our chiropractic care, is a gentle, effective, non-surgical, drug-free solution to back pain caused by herniated discs.

Thank you, I hope my testimony on the sciatic nerve treatment will help others.
What is the sciatic nerve and how can I relieve sciatic nerve pain?
The sciatic nerve is the longest and widest nerve in the human body. It runs from the lower back, across the buttock and down the back of the leg.
The sciatic nerve is composed of two smaller nerves, the tibial nerve and the common peroneal nerve. These nerves branch off from the spinal cord and join together to form the sciatic nerve.
The sciatic nerve provides sensation to the skin of the leg and foot, and muscle power to the hamstrings and calf. It also helps control bowel and bladder function.
Sciatica is a condition that can occur when the sciatic nerve is compressed or irritated. This can cause pain, numbness or weakness in the leg. Sciatica is often treated with anti-inflammatory medications, physical therapy or chiropractic care. In severe cases, surgery may be necessary to relieve pressure on the nerve.

How is neurovertebral decompression used to treat the sciatic nerve?
Neuro-vertebral decompression (NVD) is a technique used in chiropractic for sciatic nerve treatment.
The neurovertebral decompression works by gently stretching the spine and vertebrae, relieving pressure on the sciatic nerve.
This allows the nerve to heal and relieve pain. Neurovertebral decompression is usually performed in a series of treatments over a period of several weeks or months.
It's a safe and effective treatment for sciatica, providing long-term pain relief.
What are the potential benefits of neurovertebral decompression?
Neurovertebral decompression is a type of surgically assisted decompression therapy that is used to treat a variety of conditions, including herniated discsdegenerative disc disease and spinal stenosis.
The benefits of neurovertebral decompression include reduced pain, improved mobility and less nerve damage.
The procedure can help prevent further deterioration of the spine and may even improve nervous system function.
In addition, neurovertebral decompression can promote healing by increasing blood flow to the affected area.
This treatment is often used in conjunction with other therapies, such as physiotherapy or acupuncture. If you suffer from chronic pain, neurovertebral decompression may be an option to consider.
