This speaks volumes about the safety of OstroStrong, "The people there are not health care professionals who can make a clinical assessment about how it might impact my back issues."

While the founders, or the corporation, may have the best of intentions and a solid therapeutic plan, once it is placed in the hands of the franchisee, they have little day-to-day control of how it operates. There are many ways the message can get lost in the need to meet financial goals, including accepting people who are too high risk, pushing too hard, untrained or poorly trained staff, poorly calibrated or maintained equipment...

Once again, it is smart to be your own best advocate in choosing the right treatment for you.

PS I went through 3 years of treatment at a Neck and Back Pain clinic without marked improvement, and complaining the whole time that their equipment was not made for my 5'1" size. They just kept "modifying" my plan, when a simple x-ray would have shown the problem was my HIPS which needed to be replaced. My co-pays alone would have been the down payment on a nice car.
