Finding Happiness on the Other Side of Pain

During his career in the Navy, Marty performed physical work. He worked where it was extremely hot and moved a lot of heavy equipment. That work took a toll, leaving him with severe back pain.

Doctors at the VA tried a variety of things to relieve the pain. Nothing worked. They eventually prescribed the RS-4i Plus and the RS -FBG Full Back Garment.

“When I first went down to the VA to get the RS-4i Plus, my pain level was probably eight or nine,” Marty recalls. “The first time I used it, it brought my pain down to a five. Then they set me up with the RS-FBG garment. Pretty soon, I told them they weren't getting it back. I love that thing. It's like a miracle.”

The RS-4i® Plus Got Roland Back on His Feet Again

Turning to the VA for treatment, Roland was prescribed medication – which he felt didn’t work. He was also given a TENS unit.

“The TENS unit worked a little bit,” he says. “Mainly it hurt more than it worked.”

Finally, he went to the VA for physical therapy on his lower back. It was there that his therapist suggested treatment with an RS-4i® Plus with Intersperse®.

“Once I started using the RS-4i Plus, the effect it had on me was amazing.”

Seth Won’t Leave Home without His RS-4i® Plus

“My injury actually ended up ending my career in the military,” says Seth, a Veteran. “It led to me being medically discharged.”

He tried numerous options, but nothing worked to quell his pain – until the RS-4i Plus.

“The original TENS the VA gave me was too small and didn’t have enough power.”

“I was having to do the nerve ablations about every 12 to 14 months. Now, it’s extended that to 16 or 18 months.”

As Seth concludes, this device has helped change his life.

“I keep it in my vehicle,” he says. “It’s like the American Express – I don’t leave home without it.”

James Gets Back on Track with the RS-4i® Plus

James originally injured his back while serving on a military deployment in Kosovo and has suffered from low back pain ever since.

He sought treatment at the VA, and he was prescribed muscle relaxants and pain medication. When those proved largely ineffective and left him feeling drugged up, he tried physical therapy and chiropractic sessions. Those treatments provided better pain relief – but he found it was only temporary.

Then he was prescribed an RS-4i Plus, and he finally found the relief he sought.

“Using this device, my pain goes down from a 9 to a 2 or a 1.”
