Acupressure Treatment involves applying pressure to specific points on the body along the meridian lines, which are believed to be pathways of energy flow. Practitioners use their fingers, palms, or elbows to apply rhythmic, circular, or tapping pressure to these points. This traditional healing practice is based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and is thought to balance the body’s energy flow, or “Qi,” to promote health and wellness.
Acupressure is a natural way to help relieve pain, reduce stress and tension, improve circulation, and promote relaxation. It is also believed to enhance overall well-being by boosting the immune system and improving digestion. Acupressure treatments can be performed by a trained practitioner or self-
administered using acupressure tools, such as balls or mats.
However, it is important to note that acupressure should not be used as a substitute for medical treatment. Individuals with medical conditions should consult with their healthcare provider before trying acupressure.

VAX-D—not to be confused with linear traction—lengthens and decompresses the spine. High intradiscal pressures are reversed, achieving negative pressures via a patented slow ramp-up process. Negative pressure creates a vacuum inside the discs, which not only takes pressure off of pinched nerves, but helps to re-position bulging discs and pull extruded disc material back into place.
Spinal experts surmise that nutrients, oxygen, and fluids are drawn into the disc, stimulating the body’s repair mechanism to provide the building blocks necessary to mend injured discs. VAX-D’s process is the only patented treatment clinically proven to decrease disc pressures to the negative levels needed to facilitate healing!
Over a series of relaxing treatment sessions, patients experience powerful pain reduction and healing. Some even notice an improvement in their symptoms after the first few treatments!
Leading physicians in orthopedic medicine, pain medicine, neurology, and other specialties, in hundreds of clinics around the world currently utilize VAX-D’s patented technology. Many doctors choose VAX-D over other devices because it employs the original, patented technology from which non-surgical spinal decompression therapy was born. VAX-D makes a commitment to back pain sufferers to offer an honest product backed by clinical research. VAX-D gives you real science with real results.
VAX-D: Published Credibility
The definitive reference textbook on “The Practice of Minimally Invasive Techniques,” published by the College of Physicians Publishing Division, has an editorial board comprised of several world-renowned orthopedic surgeons.
Chapter 35 of the 2005 edition of this text focuses exclusively on VAX-D. The summary concludes that, “VAX-D should not be considered traction in the traditional sense but as decompression. VAX-D is the only non-invasive treatment that has been proven to decompress the disc; with other traction devices, there has been only indirect proof.”
