He finally got long-term relief of his low back pain and sciatica with the DRX 9000 non-surgical spinal decompression therapy machine, and brought the DRX 9000 and DRX 9000C to Calgary, being the first clinic in Western Canada to provide this treatment. Since then his clinic, Alberta Back and Neck Rehab, has performed approximately 5,000 decompression treatments.
