Back Pain, Neck Pain and Sciatica

One of the most common medical problems of all, back pain affects
8 out of 10 people at some point in their lives. Neck pain and
sciatica are closely related, often occurring at the same time as back
pain – and for the same reason.

Depending on the underlying condition and cause, the pain may
subside quickly or become chronic, lasting for months or years
without lasting relief. Numerous conditions associated with back,
neck or sciatica pain include:

• Bulging Disc • Scoliosis

• Herniated disc • Spondylolisthesis
• Spinal arthritis • Spinal stenosis

• Pinched nerve • Whiplash
• Piriformis syndrome • Pulled muscles

Systemic enzyme therapy with
proteolytic enzymes begins reversing
that pattern of chronic pain by shutting down the chronic
inflammation. Once inflammation is in check, other proteolytic
enzymes start breaking down the restrictive fibrin protein causing
continued restrictions and scar tissue.
