Why 99/100 Surgeons polled said they themselves would “ABSOLUTELY NOT” have a lumbar fusion surgery.

This is an actual statistic that came from a survey of surgeons attending a seminar.

Considering that 35% of the time the surgery ends up in the longterm use of painkillers, it’s no wonder that people want to avoid it...especially the ones doing the surgery.

Back pain is an industry ridden with scandal and controversy.  People are misdiagnosed more with their back pain than most any other medical problem.

When you’re in pain, you cannot think properly.  How then do you expect to make good decisions for your life…your family’s lives…your business...your finances?

Personally, I have worked with hundreds of individuals with issues that are coming from the lower back that have been misdiagnosed as another problem.

So what do you do? How do you know who to trust?

If your medical advisor tells you to consider spine surgery for a non-traumatic issue, get a second opinion… preferably from someone who spends more than 5 minutes with you.

While we are discussing that.

How does a medical professional make a major decision about someone’s health that is not a medical emergency in a matter of 5 minutes? I don't know either.

HERE'S WHAT I WANT YOU TO DO.

Hire a professional that takes a deep dive into why you're experiencing the symptoms you are.

Hint...

It must require movement and not just X-Rays or MRIs...they don't actually tell the whole story. They are one moment in time...and you live with 24 hours in a day.

If your professional isn't paying attention to how you move, research tells us and I can tell you from my clinical experience that they ARE likely missing something...

And it doesn't require a scalpel to fix it.
