After 51,000 spinal decompression treatments, Dr. JD Dudum has seen it all — and he's still watching doctors make the same critical mistakes that leave patients in pain and headed toward unnecessary surgery. In this episode, Dr. JD pulls back the curtain on the three variables that separate a decompression protocol that works from one that fails.

Angle. Weight. Oscillation. Most doctors are getting at least one of these wrong — and if you're a patient who tried decompression and didn't get relief, this episode explains exactly why. With peer-reviewed research, real patient outcomes, and a 90%+ success rate to back it up, Dr. JD makes the case that if you haven't had decompression done correctly, you haven't tried everything yet. 0:00 — Why surgery should be the last resort
