Dr. Vince Leone compares spine surgery, which has a 10-46% failure rate, to his non-surgical decompression protocol with an 85-90% success rate. He argues most patients pursue surgery too quickly, and that while physical therapy eases symptoms, only decompression rehydrates the discs that actually heal the problem.
That has a 10 to 46% failure rate. We have a protocol here that has an 85 to 90% success rate. So to me, you're, you're jumping the gun. You're skipping a major step here if you don't do this protocol by going to surgery when there's a large percent chance you could have gotten relief without surgery. So those are just some of the Things that I share with people like that. And, you know, what you said about putting water into the discs, yeah, PT is good, but that doesn't put water back in the disc. So massage feels good, but it doesn't put water back in the disc. So those are some of the things you need to think through as you're answering those questions and get the patient to realize that, okay, I am in the best spot.
