Feb.16 2002 - Follow up letter from Neil Barry

Dear Cindy and Dino,
Among the many products I sell is the Sacro Wedgy. An account of mine in Maine bought a Sacro Wedgy for his wife who was seeing a chiropractor three times a week at $40.00 per visit. Her chiropractor told her she would need to visit him three times a week for life!! After three weeks on the Sacro Wedgy she was able to stop going to the chiropractor.
Let's add up the savings:
1. 40 x 3 = $120 a week
2. $120 x 52 = $6,240 per year
3. $6,240 x 20 (the woman began using the wedgy in her mid 40's) = $124,800
4. The Sacro Wedgy and neck pillow @ $44. will save this family over $120,000 over 20 years.

To all those who have made the Sacro Wedgy available. Last August, after experiencing sciatic pain for ten months, I was scheduled for some steroid injections at the Spine Center of the University of Pennsylvania. However, I had seen the Sacro Wedgy on the Internet and sent for it, just grasping at a last straw. After using the Sacro Wedgy for two weeks, I cancelled the injections because my sciatica and hip pain were so much reduced. I recently found the notes I had taken to the orthopedist when scheduling the injection therapy. In my own writing, I had complained: 1) I found it difficult to sit foamy length of time 2) when getting up from a lengthy sitting situation, such as in a restaurant, I could barely straighten up and walk with the pain radiating down my hip and leg. I had forgotten how bad this pain was. Because of it I had seen two chiropractors, an orthopedist, been through two courses of physical therapy and still felt I had to lie down with a heating pad several times a day. When the Sacro Wedgy came in the mail, I thought it was so small that it could never help. Somehow I had expected a big device to help with my big problem. But I consoled myself with the thought that I could fit it in my suitcase for a ten-day trip I was taking. By the end of the trip, I felt like I had a new lower back! I also understood the source of my problem better than after talking to any doctor. I now realize that I have piriformis syndrome, and that when those muscles are tight, or compressed from sitting, my sciatic nerve on my left side gets irritated. Angling the lumbar spine correctly with the help of the Sacro Wedgy and gravity helps relieve that pressure greatly. Now, I am most often without pain. But sometimes, when I forget to use the new upright posture I learned from the Sacro Wedgy, or when I do too much forward bending work, the pain comes back. I then quickly realize it's time for an extra Sacro Wedge break - even 10 minutes helps - in addition to my morning session, which I seldom miss. Within a day or two, I am back to being pain free again.

It is such a relief to know that I can do something for myself about this problem that had started to rule my life. I cannot thank you enough for the new lease on life that the Sacro Wedgy has given me. I never even take an aspirin for pain anymore. I know that it is a way of life, and not a panacea, but that's a small price to pay for relief and the joy of taking my back health into my own hands instead of hoping someone else will manipulate the pain into going away. Thank you, thank you. Call me anytime for more praise.
PS: I am too vain to state my age, but my back is now 30 years younger than it was last spring!
PPS: A little upper body strengthening helps maintain good posture too as adjunct therapy to the Sacro Wedgy.

Dear Cindy,

As I told you when you sent me the Wedgy for out trip, I would write when we got home. We spent a great month touring Switzerland, southern Germany, and Austria. Thanks to your thoughtfulness, I had a great trip and used my Wedgy almost daily. We rented a car in Munich and drove everywhere. Those Alps are high, let me tell you, and we walked among some of the prettiest scenery to be seen in the fall in Europe. As you know, living in Tucson, we don't know what altitude is about. All the castles we visited we walked at least 20 minutes to an hour walk in Gods' country. I'm a four mile a day walker but never to the extent we walked on our trip. My husband does not walk as much as I do and we now are both good hikers. Our legs were like rubber and we were plugging up what they call a small hill (neither of us are smokers) and we felt those small hills and at night I looked forward to my relaxation on my Wedgy. Unlike most hotels in North America which are carpeted, theirs are not but it did not slow me down to get the relief my body demanded. If you had not mentioned to take the Wedgy on our trip, I'm sure I would have had a miserable time. Thanks again. We returned to Houston on October 3 after our fairy tale month and my daughter was telling me how her back had been bothering her. She now has a Wedgy (which I had told her about a year ago but something so simple she was sure would not help her bad back). She uses it for 15 minutes a day and swears by it. She has told her friends about her "wonder cure" and says she will loan it to them when she feels she can let it go for one night. Using the Wedgy is the only way to convince people and hopefully you will be hearing from people in the Houston area. Thanks again, Cindy. You not only have saved me a lot grief but also my daughter and hopefully her friends. I have given away all my brochures (send more) and hope you got orders for the greatest little gadget ever.

Best Regards,
Marilyn
