How We Help Failed Back Surgery Syndrome!
Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS) refers to a condition that patients suffer following spinal surgery for back or leg pain. This condition arises, just as the name suggests, when surgery fails and the patient still suffers from the original pain. This condition does not imply that problems typically arise during surgery or that surgery does not work to correct the problem. Rather, this condition is only referring to the continued pain that patients experience after surgery and the pain that was supposed to be alleviated from the surgical procedure. The chances of continued pain after surgery rise significantly when multiple surgeries are performed on the same area of the back. According to Marc Russo who is the Executive Officer at the International Neuromodulation Society, reports have suggested that FBSS has a 20-40% chance of occurring, and “the likelihood is considered greater with repeated surgery” (neuromodulation.com, 2012).
Traditionally, failed back surgery syndrome treatments consist of pain management pills with terrible side effects or surgeries with grueling recovery periods. However, at Foothill Family Chiropractic in La Verne, we provide an effective treatment called spinal decompression that is absent of medication and invasive procedures. Spinal decompression therapy takes a holistic approach to pain relief through the utilization of a computerized table that makes precise adjustments to the spine.

Our Online Reviews
Foothill Family Chiropractic is unique in their approach to treatment. Dr. Mehr treated my back injury over 6 years ago after an auto accident. He treated me with decompression treatment, which my previous chiropractor didn't do. And I have been pain free since then. I recently saw him for an adjustment for some tightness in my lower back.
Dr. Mehr is unique because he listens to you then educates you on your issue then explains the customized treatment to help you get better. As a dentist, my back and neck are important. Dr. Mehr has kept my back and neck in good health. *
Caring staff. It is truly a family! Dr. Mehr is an amazing healer. He treated my lower back pain with decompression and laser. *

I am 71 yrs old and have never been to a chiropractor. For a year I had been suffering with chronic, sometimes crippling nerve pain. My son recommended Dr Mehr @Foothill Family Chiropractic. Dr. Mehr and his friendly, competent staff immediately put me at ease. With his decompression treatments I am able to walk better often with no pain. Here’s to more and more pain free days. I highly recommend Foothill Family Chiropractic.*

You don't have to live with pain. I went there because I suffered a chronic back pain. That made me gain weight and I was unable to do any kind of sport. After almost 3 months of spinal decompression, therapy and adjustment I can said that I'm free of pain. But you have to be committed with the program and follow their instructions. The only difficult part is the logistic of going there 3 times per week, other than that you just have to go there and relax. They will make you feel better! *

I have seen Chiropractors off and on for over 20 years. Dr Mehr is by far the best chiropractor I have ever gone to. In fact, after incurring a back injury in January 2023 I started with a particular chiropractor who was recommending surgery at my third appointment.
I was looking for a non-surgical solution.
I then came to Dr Mehr needing to use a low back brace to stand up. I brought x-rays and an MRI I had done with me. He explained what they were showing and what treatment he would recommend. Through spinal decompression and chiropractic adjustments, by April 2023 I did not need to use the back brace anymore.
Recently, September 2024, Dr Mehr took x-rays of my neck. After educating me to what they were showing, we started neck decompression treatments. Within a month of these treatments I am already seeing increased mobility, strength and balance.
Going to Dr Mehr is the best decision I ever made. He is very knowledgeable, very skilled and very friendly. He cares about his patients and does his best to help them get, and stay, healthy. I HIGHLY recommend Foothill Family Chiropractic. They are the BEST. *
