I'll soon be 67. Starting in my 20's, I have had episodes of low grade and debilitating low back pain, herniated and ruptured disc's, annulus fibers tears, and sciatica. Finally in 2013 I had surgery for lumbar spinal stenosis.
The wear and tear on my spine is undoubtedly from the numerous sports I participated in, extreme training and conditioning protocols, lifting weights, powerlifting, surfing and bodysurfing large waves in Hawai'i for years; with a few car wrecks thrown in as well. Cumulative stress, coupled with micro and major traumas, produced increased levels of degeneration.
Through the years I have been involved with numerous methods for healing, such as-yoga, tai chi, meditation, qigong, breath work, somatic reeducation, physical and physiotherapy, Rolfing, Feldenkrais, numerous back specific rehab programs, acupuncture, prolotherapy, and epidural and prolozone injections.
The above therapies and practices would give me varying durations of relief, until my conditioned worsened in 2012-2013. I could barely walk, the pain was a constant 10. I was diagnosed with spinal stenosis at L-3-4-5/S-1.
After the surgery the debilitating pain was gone, though there was some nerve damage that affected my right foot and leg. The specialist told me one day I would need a spinal fusion due to the structural deterioration and 'uniqueness' in the lumbar spine. With the added caveat that it would be a very complicated procedure.
Fast forward to four months ago when nothing I was doing was giving me relief. After some research, a consult, and updated X-rays, and an MRI, and based on the advanced degeneration, I decided to commit to a comprehensive program of four weeks, five days a week, two hours each day.
The components of the four week program are as follows:
- 8 minutes of oxygen while doing an upper body ergometer
-VAX-D-decompression therapy while on oxygen for 30 minutes
-12 minutes concurrent laser and synaptic nerve block therapy
-30 minutes Rebuilder therapy-seated with feet in electrolyte solution with a current
-30-60 minutes of Far Infrared Therapy at home
There was a noticeable improvement after the first session, which has since grown to 80%. The sustained relief and quality of function, has been a huge surprise, and I am very, very grateful..
Three weeks into the program 2 cc's of amniotic stem cells were injected into the paraspinals at L-3-4-5. One cc intranasal and one cc slow push of umbilical stem cells.
Also, I started with TB-500 and BPC-157 injections at the same time. Got the Peptides from Ace Labs! Solid and on point I might add!
Low dose TRT with TC and MP and GH Acetropins.
Diet, supplements, and herbs have been upgraded as well.
Create the optimal healing environment and miracles do happen!! It has been so long since I have been able to move so easily, with little if any stiffness, consistent pain free days, and the constant energy drain on my mind, body and spirit!
*I am now in Phase II of the program.*
*VAX-D was developed by Allan Dyer, MD, Ph.D.*
