I don’t know where you live.
The New England Spine and Disk Institute in Orange, CT has a special table that stretches the spine to allow the vertebrae to become re-aligned. In August I plan to schedule a session on that table.
I’ll post more info on Friday when my husband gets his next stem cell therapy treatment for arthritis in his knees.

I went to a similar place two years ago. I discovered it was run by a chiropractor. They also had special tables to realign the spine. I was sent for a CT scan because he didn't like the MRI. After the results came back, he sat down and proceeded to point out all the terrible things wrong with my spine: herniated disks everywhere (the MRI showed no such thing). It was a wonder I could walk. Now, his 30 day program involved coming in weekly to get "stretched". Also will sell you vital nutrient packs to help the disks return to their normal size and shape (any of this sounding familiar?). Normally, this amazing program is $12,000 (no insurance coverage), but today, if you sign up, the price is $9200. Why, yes, we offer financing. One stop shopping.
I said no thanks. "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably isn't". It's your money. I''m just giving you my experience.

Sorry I am late with this reply. I spoke with the technician at the Spine and Disk Institute. He said the stretching machine would not help my back issue.
Don’t know what to do now.
I have an appointment with my back doc in August. Maybe he will have an idea. The back brace he gave me doesn’t help. Maybe a 73 year old injury can’t be corrected. 😕
