Dr. Jon Group and the Pain Relief Center are proud to announce the huge success of
the DRX9000 and DRX9000C Spinal Decompression Traction systems*. This advanced computerized form of Mechanical Traction has been proven successful in treating
spinal conditions such as disc bulges, herniations, disc degeneration, facet joint
syndrome, sciatica and even some cases of spinal stenosis. The Pain Relief Center
of Austin is conveniently located right on Highway 183 in Leander, TX just north of
Cedar Park. (*Spinal Decompression is an advanced type of computerized

Dr. Jon Group, a Native Texan and Leander, TX Chiropractor has performed over
18,000 treatments using the DRX9000 system. After extensive experience treating
patients with the Axiom DRX-9000, he knows first hand how successful this treatment
is in treating low back pain or neck pain from herniated discs, bulging discs,
degenerative discs, facet joint problems, arthritis and even stenosis. In fact, in 2004,
Dr. Jon Group was a patient himself.
"In 2004, I suffered a severe disc herniation at the L4-5 level and was experiencing
severe low back pain with pain into the left leg. After several weeks with no
improvement I had an epidural steroid injection which helped for about a week, but was
completely unsuccessful in treating my herniated disc. I then started treatment on the
DRX-9000 in Houston, Texas and have been over 95% pain free ever since."

"The pain in the back and left leg was unbearable. I literally had to be pushed in a
wheel chair through 2 different airports and I didn't know how I would ever be able to

Since completing treatment in 2004, I am pain free, able to play golf and do many other
activities I enjoy such as running and playing with my two wonderful children. I have
seen this treatment work so well on such a variety of patients that I am convinced that
this is the best treatment available today for low back and neck pain."
READ BELOW TO FIND OUT WHY DR. GROUP BELIEVES THE DRX9000 is the leader in low back and neck pain treatment technology.
"There is so much exciting research being done on the effects of decompressing the
spine using advanced forms of lumbar and cervical traction and the results are
phenomenal." Since working with the DRX9000 for over two years and extensively
studying traction-decompression research, I believe that the best treatment unit on the
market today is the Axiom DRX9000. It is also the only machine with the patented
continual feedback mechanism which allows for continual adjustments of pressure

"For these and many other reasons, I have decided to bring the best and latest in traction-decompression technology to the Leander, Liberty Hill, and Georgetown area at
the Pain Relief Center. It should be noted that this treatment is not a "Chiropractic"
treatment. Many different types of Doctors have the DRX system. In fact, there are many
orthopedic doctors and neurosurgeons that use the DRX9000. In fact, over 90 percent of
all DRX9000 units overseas are owned by Medical Doctors.

Please Read some of our many Testimonials:
"This treatment even works well on patients that have failed back surgeries. In fact, one
of my patients had 3 failed back surgeries, was completely disabled and now is working
without restrictions. Not only is he feeling great, he's playing golf twice a week!." Here
is what he had to say:

"Thanks to Dr. Group and his treatment protocol, I am no longer disabled, I am back to
work, off all pain medications, and I am playing golf 2-3 times a week. I couldn't believe
that after 3 failed back surgeries, Dr. Group's treatment would give me my life back. It is
truly amazing. It has been almost one year since treatment and my back feels stronger
than it has in many years." David Rooney, Cape Cod, MA.______________________________________________________________
"I tried decompression for my back pain last year using a VAX-D system with limited
results. Being a Medical Doctor, I was a naturally a little skeptical. After 16 treatments,
I was feeling 70-80 percent better and with complete resolution of my leg pain. After
completing treatment, I am back to my regular exercise, golfing, and just about anything
I want. Thanks Dr. Group and the Pain Relief Center. I now refer many of my patients
for this amazing treatment. I am very happy to know that I don't have to send my patients
out for low back surgery anymore!" Dr. Zadworny, M.D.
What happens when I come into the office each time for treatment?
First you will spend approximately 30-36 minutes on the DRX-9000 Spinal Traction-Decompression machine. This is followed by 15 minutes of Electrical
Muscle Stimulation with ice over the low back or neck to reduce any muscle
tension or inflammation that may occur.

Cold Low Level laser treatment is then performed using 630nm and 808 nm
wavelengths to increase cellular metabolism, reduce deep tissue swelling and
speed healing of the discs, joints and muscles of the back (Research has shown an
reduced healing time of 30-40% in patients using laser treatments). In fact, the New
England Patriots used cold laser therapy on all of their athletic injuries in 2003, the
year they won the Super Bowl.

Myofascial Release and/or massage is then performed by the doctor or a licensed
Massage Therapist to reduce muscle spasms and break up connective tissue
adhesions. Finally, low force joint manipulation/mobilization is performed to
improve joint motion, mobilize restricted areas and restore normal joint
biomechanics. After the first 2 weeks, stretching exercises are performed with
balance training to re-establish normal muscle movement patterns. After 3-4
weeks, additional resistance exercises are added to develop the back or neck
muscles. Core muscle strengthening, trunk stabilization exercises and postural
biomechanics are performed on each visit. The total treatment time each visit is
usually about an hour in the first 2-3 weeks then after starting exercises, the total
treatment time will be approximately 1 1/2 hours.
How do I get Started with treatment?The first step is to call Dr. Group at 512-260-4020 to schedule a free consultation. Dr.
Group will ask you a few questions and then schedule you to come in with your MRI
films to determine if you are a candidate for DRX-9000 treatment. If you are a
candidate, we will verify your insurance benefits and schedule you to start treatment
at the earliest possible date. If you prefer, you may also attend a FREE informational
seminar which is held every Tuesday night at 7 pm. Bring friends and relatives so
they can be informed as well.

We have many patients that travel a long way for our expertise and experience, so it
may be helpful to know that you can mail your MRI films or MRI disc for Dr. Group to
review and he will call you back to let you know if you are a candidate for treatment.
If you do not have a MRI, Dr. Group will see you for a brief examination and order one
for you at a diagnostic center of your choice.

FACT: Spinal Decompression-Traction is a corrective procedure for disc injuries
that has been proven to increase hydration of the disc, help the body to repair the
connective tissue structures of the disc, retract herniated or bulged disc material
and improve the structural integrity of the disc and surrounding tissues. This is
something that back or neck surgery cannot do. Spinal surgery only removes the
small portion of the disc that is damaged and is pressing on the pain producing
nerves. It does nothing to improve the quality of the disc or surrounding structures. That is the reason why so many back surgeries fail, because you are left with the
same bad disc minus the small piece that was surgically removed. This means you
have a high potential for re-rupturing the disc. While surgery may temporarily
reduce your back or leg pain, it does not change the integrity of the disc or improve
the quality of the disc and joints of the spine. Remember, surgery fixes the
herniated or bulged chunk of disc pressing on the nerves but not the disc itself!
Research shows that the majority of back surgeries are unsuccessful in relieving
pain. According to a study published in the June 2005 issue of SPINE journal, 39% of
low back pain patients had virtually no difference in pain after surgery.

Before and after MRI studies of Spinal Traction-Decompression patients show
retraction of herniated disc material, healed annular fibers and improved
re-hydration of the disc. This is documented in the Journal of Neuro-imaging.
