I did the decompression table back in '09. I had sciatica BAD down my left leg all the way to the heel of my foot. Felt like an electrical shock. Went to a chiropractor as a last resort. He looked at my MRI and said I was borderline, but, he would try it. Really had nothing to lose. I did 2 treatments per week for about 4-5 weeks and it was gone!!! He told me in the beginning that, if it's gonna work, I would notice the difference overnight. After the last treatment, I woke up the next morning and actually didn't have to roll outta bed. That particular pain has not returned.

BTW, doctors don't like chiropractors. My doctors have told me that they do more harm to back pain patients than good. Well, I beg to differ!!
