"When I first came here, the back pain and sciatica was between a 9 and a 10 with 10 being the worst. I could barely sit down or walk, and I would lose my balance. It was affecting me at work, and I was taking alot of over the counter pain medicines. The sciatica and back pain are now 98% gone. Now I can sleep, do house work, bend - everything is terrific. I used to be in pain 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

For people who are suffering with severe, chronic back pain, I would tell them to come here because Dr. Frank has alot of respect for the patient as well as their pain. He respects you as a person and treats you very well here."

"When I first came in to the office, I had lower back pain when I bent forward, or did dishes or woodwork. If I tried to lift anything my low back would hurt. Almost any exertion of the entire body like twisting, turning, working over my head like painting, were difficult. Today, I can bend over, do dishes, work on my workbench, and lift things without any pain.

Right now I feel like I could go outside and wash and polish my car. I would tell people in pain to get in here and get treatment quickly. There is no reason to stay in pain. I am very pleased with the treatment, the friendliness, and the smoothness of how the office runs."

"I had severe pain in my spine and my left hip. I couldn’t do anything – couldn’t stand very well, couldn’t walk very well, couldn’t dance, couldn’ t lift – couldn’t do anything physical whatsoever.

There’s a world of difference now. Now I can walk a lot better, and I’m able to lift things a lot easier. To anyone that is suffering, I would say to go for that spinal decompression!"

"From the time I woke up until I went to bed, I had pain in my lower back. I really couldn’t do much. Even if I did the dishes I had to sit down two or three times from the pain before I could get them done. After going through the treatment program, I don’t have the pain any more, and I’m able to make my breakfast and do the dishes all the while without having to sit down.

I can bend over and pick things up off the floor which I couldn’t do before. I also don’t have numbness in my legs anymore, and I’ m able to walk more now. This treatment is worth it, it’s really worth it. I suffered a really long time and it didn’t take that long to get rid of it, and I’m very happy about that."

"Before I came for treatment, I was very stiff, feeling a lot of pain and discomfort, and very depressed because of it.  I woke up every day with pain and discomfort in my back and legs, and it affected and limited everything that I did.  I couldn’t go shopping because I couldn’t move around the store because of the pain.  I would have to sit and walk, sit and walk, because the pain wouldn’t let me walk.

After the treatment, I feel more energetic, I can do more, I can bend more, I’m more flexible, I can do yoga now, and I’m happier.  I can drive again and I can turn better to see when I’m driving.  I was always scared before when I was driving.  I can walk longer and better and with less limitations. 

To someone who is suffering I would say that this is a place that can help you, and that means they can help you be happy again."

"I had severe back pain that was not going away. After my MRI I found out that I had three bulges and two herniations, Dr. Segreto put me on the decompression table and now after my treatment program I feel fabulous.

It's so nice not to have to walk around bent over for hours every morning. Every morning was very painful, very upsetting and disturbing, and it took hours before it went away. I haven't had that since the middle of the treatment, it subsided gradually and now it is gone. I was getting very depressed from the pain, now life is wonderful. I absolutely recommend the treatment to others."

"Before the treatment I had constant pain in the lower back, unable to walk more than a block, and pain in the back and front of my left knee. After the treatment, I have absolutely no pain in the knee, whatsoever. In the back, I get only a twinge or two if I sit long, other than that, no back pain.

I'm able to walk again, so far I'm up to a half-mile at a time. I can stretch again, I can reach higher spots in the house, and I can bend easier that I ever could before. Give it a try, you won't know until you try it. I fought starting care for six months, but I succumbed and I'm thankful that I did."

"I was in agony before I came in for care. I couldn't do anything without pain. Now, I'm pretty much pain free. I would tell others who were suffering to definitely do it. This has been a marvelous experience, the whole treatment package is just awesome."

"Before my service here, I was in a lot of pain from sciatica with lower back pain and leg pain. Now I feel much, much better. I can walk further, faster, and easier, and I can relax more at home and even in the car. Come to Dr. Segreto, it's wonderful here and the service is excellent."

"The pain I had was pretty severe, it was difficult getting out of bed. Walking straight was difficult and the pain really wouldn't subside at any time during the day. After treatment I'm much better. It's a 180 degree difference, much more comfortable, I've resumed most of my daily activities. I'd tell others that this definitely something they should consider for low back pain."

"The pain was pretty bad. Sometimes I couldn't sleep, and when I would get up in the morning I had a hard time walking and the pain on my left side was pretty severe from the sciatica. Now, after finishing the treatment program, I don't have any of that pain anymore when I get up, I sleep through the night with no problem, and when I get up in the morning and start walking around I'm fine. I don't have anymore pain on that left side.

Before treatment, I had to work through the pain, now everything is much easier because I don't have the pain. I love coming here, the office is great, Dr. Segreto and Karen are great, they listen to me and I feel so much better than I did when I started."

"I’ve had unbearable pain for years in my lower spine.  I was told I had degenerative spine disease and that there was nothing that could be done about it.  In the morning I would wake up at 2 or 3 AM because of the pain and when I tried to get out of bed the pain was unbearable.  I now can sleep until 7 AM, sometimes 8 AM, because there’s no pain in my back.  I have no problem moving, the pain is 90-95% gone.  My life has improved so much, there are so many things I can do now.  In fact, I took my grandkids to the Barnegat Lighthouse and walked up to the top with them last week.

To people who are suffering I would say don’t wait!  I suffered for 30 years and now I am so much better, it’s changed my life so much."

"I was having a hard time sleeping through the night because of the pain.  Driving long distances in the car was very painful, and just standing sometimes hurt, and I was starting to give up some of the activities that I love like skiing and biking because it just hurt too much.  After treatment, I can now sleep through the night which is such a blessing, it makes everything so much better just getting a good night's sleep.  I'm much quicker on my feet because I don't have the pain in the back.  I went biking for the first time in a while and I didn't have the stiffness that I've had, and I'm looking forward to skiing again.  If you're suffering like I was, you don't have to live with the pain."
