I spent mucho $$ at chiropractors with good results. A friend told me about his inversion table and decided to give one a try. Best $200 bucks Ive ever spent.

IronAss, you sure have a way with words. LOL. That is one image I could have done without.

If they are just bulging and not herniated,P/T should do the trick.With some traction,maybe.Magnets sound like total BS.

Been there and done that too. +1..., except mine was a total of 3 over a period of 3 months. Steroids are a life saver. Too bad they got a bad rap from the anabolics. They really do put out the fire. Highly recommended...

Buy your self an inverstion table .You won't believe how much pressure it can pull out of your back. Give it a couple days .I have had back trouble for 28years and my one and only back doctor told me then to buy one. He did not believe in assistants,massage tables and all the other bs you see now adays. just good personal work to get you right quickly. These tables can be bought Cheap and really work. May not fix all but does help . Have you had a CATor MRI scane?
