Is it helping at all? Sometimes things may take a while to help us.</p> <p>Could you get sometime with your doctor to go through your condition and all possible treatments with the pros and cons. I appreciate you may have tried this already, you need them to listen to your concerns.I have been known to write a list of questions/points I need to cover with my Dr so I get some focussed time to discuss things.</p> <p>If you havent already read it this article explains more about the LTBP system for you.</p> <p>http://www.losethebackpain.com/getstarted.html</p> <p>_______________________________________________________________________________________JJ</p> <p>Jan 22, 2010 - 10:41AM</p> <p>Quote Reply<br /> Re: Spondylitis</p> <p>Thanks Ann. Greatly appreciate your help.</p> <p>Just wondering why noone from LTBP has ressponded. I can only assume this condition is not due to muscular imbalances so maybe im looking at the wrong site.</p> <p>The water therapy helps temporarily but still have discomfort with most things.<br /> _______________________________________________________________________________________<br /> Steven Hefferon</p> <p>Jan 22, 2010 - 3:04PM</p> <p>Quote Reply<br /> Re: Spondylitis</p> <p>JJ, Im sorry, I would say that correcting your muscle imbalance is the only way to manage your<br /> spondylolisthesis...</p> <p>"Click here to get more information on spondylolisthesis"</p> <p>If you have specific Questions about your condition please feel free to email me direct...</p> <p>Steve </p>
