Picture your spine like a stack of jelly donuts.
The vertebrae are the donuts. The discs are the jelly filling.
When you're young, those discs are plump, juicy, full of fluid. They keep your vertebrae separated and your nerves happy.
But here's what happens after age 30...
Those discs start losing fluid. Getting thinner. Flatter. Like jelly donuts left in the sun.
Your vertebrae get closer together. The space for your nerves shrinks. And your sciatic nerve?
It gets crushed like a garden hose under a truck tire.
The medical industry KNOWS this.
They've known it since 1987 when Swedish researchers proved that 91% of sciatica patients had "significant disc dehydration."
But here's the kicker...
There's no money in fixing it.
Why?
Because the solution is too simple. Too cheap. And it would put half the spine surgeons in Beverly Hills out of business.
You can't patent spinal decompression.
You can't bill insurance for teaching someone to fix their own back.
So they keep you on the hamster wheel:
Pills to mask the pain → Injections when pills stop working → Surgery when you're desperate enough → More pills for post-surgery pain → Repeat until broke or broken
It's genius, really.
If you're a sociopathic medical executive who sees human suffering as a revenue stream.
