"From these encouraging initial results we have concluded that Pronex™ use is a very beneficial adjunct to conservative management for patients with a variety of cervical spine conditions. Especially significant is the apparent success we have experienced using this device with patients exhibiting chronic pain of spinal origin."

"For the independent, self directed person, the addition of the Pronex™ to their options for handling spinal dysfunction is welcomed. We see many persons using Pronex™ rather than medications, or repeat courses of physical therapy. In addition, regular application of this device often leads the user to increased awareness of muscular tension and postural imbalance."

"To compliment the rehabilitation section of our Cervical Spine symposium program we were in search of a device that could provide the benefits of axial traction to the cervical spine while improving and supporting the normal cervical lordosis. After reviewing numerous products on the market, we chose Pronex™."

"The authors conclude that all the devices tested were capable of distracting the cervical spine, attaining greater separation at the posterior disc height than the anterior....Based upon the survey results, it appears that the Pronex™ device is the clear choice among the subjects tested. It scored favorably above all the other devices."
A summary of outcome survey information...
An independent research firm interviewed 304 randomly selected patients with chronic neck- pain who had been using Pronex™ for an average of seven months each (1). These were the results:
- Patient Satisfaction
84% of the patients rated Pronex™ "Good to Excellent" for an overall rating.
Comfort and ease of use are key advantages of Pronex™ therapy.
- Pain relief and ease of use promote compliance
88% of patients rated Pronex™ "Good to Excellent" for the ability to achieve desired amount of traction.
91% of patients rated Pronex™ "Good to Excellent" for ease and convenience of use.
Pronex™ excels by utilizing a lightweight, user friendly design that encourages patient compliance and a way out of the chronic pain cycle.
- Return to work
72% of the patients reported a reduction in pain interference, enabling them to resume normal activities, including returning to work.
76% of patients reported a reduction of pain interference with daily activities.
- Reduce pain medication
59% of patients originally on pain medication reduced or eliminated its use.
Reducing pain medication improves the patient's quality of life and saves money.
Conclusion
The A&A Research patient satisfaction survey and several papers from the medical literature (1) confirm that Pronex™ therapy is highly effective for managing cervical pain. It helps minimize lost workdays, speeds the rehabilitation process, and helps restore confidence and self-esteem. It often pays for itself by reducing pharmacy bills and eliminating the need for long-term physical therapy. Over 80% of patients continue to use Pronex™ regularly to maintain cervical stability.
