About Us

The Non Surgical Disc Treatment Center in Lancaster, California was created out of the sheer frustration of seeing patients that had opted for spinal procedures that were unsuccessful. These patients were frequently in chronic or constant pain with few alternatives except narcotic pain killers, or the thought of more surgery. Most of these patients had lost the ability to do the things they love, work or even enjoy simple pleasures like sitting in a movie theater. In other words they had tried surgery and it didn’t work.

We knew that there were options to surgery that could help a person with a herniated disc or degenerative disc disease. We knew we could help patients with secondary conditions like sciatica or numbness and tingling. As a result of our research in the art and science of preventing surgery we discovered key non surgical treatments that actually worked.

As we began working with these treatment processes, we continued to refine the treatment specific protocols for various conditions and combinations of conditions. For example, we learned how to help patients with herniated and degenerative disc disease or patients with herniated discs at multiple levels. As the number of patients we helped to avoid surgery grew, our skills and our success rates improved.
Today, we help patients from all over the Antelope Valley avoid surgery and get out of pain.  Many patients are in constant pain and they have tried just about everything. They have tried therapy, chiropractic, injections, acupuncture and some have even had surgery.  Quite a few of these patients have been told that they will need surgery.

We can’t help every patient, but we have helped so many patients that have tried all the treatments yet are still in pain. The only way to find out if we can help you is for you to schedule an appointment.

Why we have a good success rate:

We have helped so many patients over the last 20 years that we have developed a very good understanding about who will respond well to our treatment protocols. A little secret: Our very high success statistic is driven by carefully selecting patients that we believe will respond well.  We publicly share our process in the flow chart on this page.

What this means is that we don’t help every patient, in fact we don’t accept every patient that wants our care. It also means that when we accept you into this program, the odds are very good that you will have a substantial reduction in pain. Our program gets results where others have failed.

It is for this reason that patients are referred to us by spine surgeons, orthopedic surgeons and family doctors. Even though this clinic is run by Dr. Magnuson, who is a chiropractor, other chiropractors refer patients to us that they cannot help. Can we help you? The only way to find out is to spend about an hour with us. Your first step is to contact our scheduling desk for a consultation.
