Click here for the Main website. Click on the video and watch carefully: the device is only anteriorly pelvic tilting without any significant spinal traction. In fact, it actually compresses the facet joints and posterior discs of the spine!!
Click here for deceptive information concerning "FDA Cleared": this level does not indicate effectiveness at all!! It's only "not life-threatening." For a device to be "FDA Approved", it has to be shown through extensive studies that it is also effective for the medical problem(s) addressed.
Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.
