Cervical stenosis 'mystery man'

[Maria]

I have heard of it as I'm sure here in SoCal there must be machines like this but I've not actually known anyone that goes.

Tell us more if you're so inclined. What does a daily 30 minute session involve? What is the out of pocket cost?

glad to read that you are improved! I wonder if imaging would show any difference in findings after the amount of treatment to date?

I show up, heat is applied to the neck, climb on the table, 1/2 hour treatment of computer controlled cervical traction. Not painful but not 'comfortable' per se. At the end, ice is applied. I am now also doing some light leg rehab exercises.

Mine is a package, covers treatments until recovery, not totally sure what that means but they've said some folks have gone for months, approx $2K

Thanks for the answers to ?'s. Yeah I guess if you're feeling better would anyone even bother to order an MRI on you and if you have to pay cash that's a consideration in even trying to pursue getting one unless perhaps one goes outside the U.S.

Hope you continue to improve with it. Keep us posted!
