Yes. In fact, a large study of 700 plus patients, with disk conditions 40 months of age and older showed a 71-73% success rate. This is a fabulous finding. |

| Q: |
I have a reverse-gravity table at home. Is it the same thing as VAX-D table? |

No. In fact, reverse-gravity tables are similar to traction, which can be harmful as it will stretch the ligaments, thus creating dependency on the table and a chronic instability of the ligaments of the spinal joints. |
