I have 15 bulging discs I have one completely shut one torn I am getting better hey what's up my name is Thomas Aro so basically when I was younger I used to power lift I used to do a lot of competition weights and I thought I was going to be good forever then I my whole family does truck driving and moving services so I did that for 12 years and you know luging fridges on your back you think you're the strongest person in the world until your back breaks so basically where I'm at right now I'm at 15 um ruptured discs I didn't realize there was 15 bulging discs in my bag I just thought I dealt with the pain so as of now I'm in the stage of getting better so if you're like me and your back hurts all the time you stuff things under there you try to sleep on your side you sleep sitting up you sit in the bathtub for hours you get underneath the water nothing helps when your spine is messed up so basically what I've been doing for the past 10 years is dealing with it just chalking it up to all my back hurts I have a bad back oh my hip hurts now I have sciatic pain why does my knee hurt and I just said you know what it's probably because then you lose weight it's not CU you lose weight your discs are messed up so basically what I'm doing right now is going to spinatom to fix this because nothing else has ever worked I've been to doctors they try to give me cortisone shots they uh offer me surgery when they didn't even give me MRI yet so I've been to about 13 different chiropractors over the years just hopefully hoping something's going to be relieved going to masseuse every week thinking no she's got deep tissue it's going to work and it doesn't work you just get more sore and your back still hurts so basically when I walked in spine Anatomy I thought of it as any other place they're just going to tell me what I need to hear hopefully get me on a program but what happened was the doctor sat me down sat over what exactly goes on why your discs are messed up what happens when your disc messed up why you feel like that and exactly every single thing that they said is what I felt so what happened was I did the first program and after the first pull it felt completely different if you have hurt back all you say is I wish somebody could just pop me I wish I could just pop I feels like my hips are locked that's exactly what decompression is it is releasing that pressure I have't it feels like when you get a hang nail and you pull it out and there's like a big gap that's how I explain it like there's a big gap now like I feel taller my back feels stronger it's just you never think there's a solution because you hear surgery I friends with fuse vertebraes and spine all that stuff from injuries they always say I wish I never did surgery every single one when it gets cold I can't really move my back when it gets locked I know when it's going to start raining I don't want to be bionic so basically when I came here this is my last option and it should have been my first option so the difference is about two months after this treatment I started exercising by myself I did push-ups yesterday without my back seizing up I did I didn't do sit-ups I did a little bit of crunches it's not it's not there yet but it's way better than it was for those of you that have back problems you try to do a crunch it just locks start spazzing out you have to roll on your side it takes like four minutes to go you know this pain and I've dealt with it I have family members dealt with it I have friends that deal with it you are probably dealing with right now watching this video so I'm telling you from me to you 2 months in I I am now exercising I was in the tread yesterday I got my sauna I'm doing stuff I'm actively getting on the ground tying my shoot I just didn't think it was going to happen you know what I'm saying like once your back starts to hurt it's almost depressing cuz you can't move getting in and out of the car getting out of the car even pressing the gas my hips start hurting you know what I mean you put it on cruise control so you can put your legs back I go through all the same thing I do the road trips I'm sure you guys don't like to be in a car you can't even go to the movie theater as I said because who can sit that long you should be able to when you have a good back so spinatom is actively helping my back get back into place honestly I feel different I feel like I can jump I feel like I can tie my shoes I'm bent over and got my underwear off the ground like there's there's little things that you take for granted I don't have to kick my stuff and catch it off the floor anymore like I can bend over and grab it it's it's something that I can honestly say is making me smile when I know I'm going to be here cuz my back's going to get better every morning when I wake up and I know like oh today's I have an appointment thank God God by by noon I'm going to feel better and then I come home and I can start stretching it's not the let's get fixed till we come and get fixed it's not a Band-Aid it's get fix go make myself better go actively strengthen my back cuz I can't do it if I can't move my back so for anyone out there that has any back pain you've never had a surgery and this is your last resort and you're sweating from the pain like I was just walk in the door try it out and if it doesn't work for you I don't know what to tell you because it should work if you're a human being your spine should move just like anyone else's I've talked to other people that came in here walking like nothing like hey how long did it take 4 months like I couldn't even bend over I was at a nine in pain and I was at a 10 when I walked in here I was Dripping sweat walking in here cuz I was just trying to contain it trying to talk to the doctor you know those keeping your weight off your back when you're sitting it's just um it's a life that no one should live it's a life that no one has to live and this is an option for those of you out there with severe back pain don't get surgery don't do the quartis Zone shots at least try decompression at least look up this website from me to you as someone that thought it couldn't get better I have 15 bulging disc I have one completely shut one torn I am getting better I tied my shoes this morning I dressed myself like I don't need help putting my socks on that it becomes a time where you feel like am I an old man no you're not an old man you just didn't take care of your backing of it's not there but it can be there not everything has to be final I'll be 90 my back's hurting it can be better next month it can be better next week everything is progression good things take time and this is the best thing to invest in you're investing in yourself
