A four-year, multi-center efficacy follow-up study* on the lasting effects of VAX-D showed remarkable levels of sustained relief from back pain in patients who had undergone therapy. Before VAX-D, patients reported an average pain level of 7.41 out of a possible 8. Four years after treatment,

• Average pain levels were reduced from 7.41 to 1.57.

• Employment status increased by 40% among those previously out of work due to back pain.

• 71% showed more than a 50% reduction in pain immediately after treatment• 86% showed a 50% or better pain reduction at four years.

• 52% of respondents reported a pain level of zero. Thus, pain relief not only lasted but improved!
