I know these two have been discussed, all the pros and cons, but have to try something. I have both these in my area and wondering if anyone has an opinion on which to try? Or are they the same?

Thanks

My doctor told me that the vax d workd on the back and the drx9000 works on both the neck and back. and she said the drx9000 would be better for me. I have both neck and back problems

i tried to get VAX-D covered by my insurance as it was very expensive out of pocket, but had no luck . it was my next shot at fixing my back pain. here in hawaii , they have an institute downtown and the doctor that invented it lives and practices here.still never got approved. good luck and hope to hear from you if you do have it .. better yet, be like the only one who reports about something that actually helped them. that is good for the morale! bshire :cool: :angel:

I have 4 herniations, stenosis and sclerosis and 4 levels of thecal sac impingement. I called about both and was told that they are not effective against spinal stenosis.

Also, from what I can gather, these machines seem to be for those with minor problems.

Thanks,

Compared to others on this board my problems are minor, but major to me, so I'm hoping this will help. I've done the PT and a few injections with no luck. I might as well give it a try. If I was in Hawaii like bshire I'd probably feel better.
