Degenerative Disc Disease Can Become Regenerative Disc Health With Acupuncture

Masterfully Performed Pain-Free, Safe Acupuncture Can Heal And Eliminate Your Pain...No Drugs...No Surgery!

Degenerative Disc Disease or Degenerative Disk Disease, however you spell it, need not be the beginning of a life of pharmaceutical drug addiction or dangerous surgery with its often dire consequences...and inevitable use of pharmaceutical drugs to manage your pain.

The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) recently on December 20, 2010 published an article documenting the corruption of Spinal Surgeons and the damage that spinal fusion surgery often does.

Degenerative disc disease is another back pain diagnosis that is practically and functionally meaningless when treated with effective Acupuncture.

Not Very Long Ago A Woman Came To Me Barely Able To Move With The Aid Of A Walker

This woman told me her story...and a sad one it is.

She had developed low back pain and she also had "sciatica" or "sciatic pain"...this is pain that radiates from the lower back down one or both legs...sometimes all the way to the foot.

She reported to me that prior to her spinal fusion surgery she could walk without any assistance...the pain was the problem. So, she sought surgical help for her pain.

She hooked up with an orthopedic surgeon who diagnosed her with degenerative disc disease, promised her relief and fused her spine...

...now she can hardly walk with the aid of a walker...one of those things with handle bars, a frame and two wheels in the front and skids in the back that you push to hold you up...

She told me her surgeon told her that her spinal fusion surgery had been a success...

...but every day she was losing more and more of her ability to walk...she spent most of each day in a wheel chair.

...As gently as I could I pointed out that the surgery was supposed to get her out of pain and preserve her ability to function...

and yet here she was on high doses of pain-killers and daily losing more of her ability to walk even with a walker.

How could that be "success"?
