When I came to SpinalAid, I could not walk and I was in an extreme amount of pain. After just 3 treatments I no longer needed the wheelchair. Every treatment I saw improvement. Soon I was walking with no pain and back to work. I’m so glad I came to Dr. Justin Scharer. The improvement I saw in a short period of time is nothing short of a miracle.

I heard about Spinal Aid Centers on TV before I was experiencing any back pain. I always thought I would contact them if I ever needed treatment for back pain. In November 2013, my back started giving me trouble. I could not walk and getting out of bed was almost impossible. After seeing my doctor and my chiropractor with no relief, I called Dr. Scharer. Thank God I did. After my first treatment I felt relief. My treatments are now complete and I am moving around living my life normally. I cannot thank Dr. Scharer and his fantastic staff enough. Everyone in the office is wonderful.

Dr. Scharer and his staff are very professional, helpful, and super nice! The treatments are extremely helpful and have reduced my back pain from almost a 10 at the beginning to virtually a 0 now, 2/3 of the way through treatment! I would recommend Dr. Scharer and his staff at Spinal Aid to absolutely anybody experiencing back/neck pain!

When Dr. Justin Scharer said he could help, he was right. I am very happy with my results. My neck and back feel better now than it has in the last 10 years. Very good people to work with, very friendly no waiting, appointments on time, you’re not just a number. I highly recommend Spinal Aid before surgery.

Having just completed a series of treatments for my lower back and sciatica problems, (which I’ve had for years), I can recommend the success of these treatments to anyone who may have ongoing pain and discomfort. It is extraordinary how well I feel and am able to be more active than before. Dr. Scharer and his staff are so adept and knowledgeable; it makes the treatments very smooth and seamless. If nothing else has worked for you, please try this program, you will be so glad that you did. The laser treatments are terrific too.

After years of care by a chiropractor for my neck pain, pain/numbness between my shoulder blades, I felt it was time to try to find a more permanent solution. With my insurance change – now was the time. I was pleased with my decision after noticing improvement after just a few weeks. Now that I have completed the 5 week program, I am on maintenance, but can honestly say I don’t notice pain or numbness at all anymore, even at night. I used to be bothered, tossing and turning, trying to find a comfortable position to sleep in. One that would not cause numbness down my arms or headaches. Thank you Dr. Scharer and staff. You truly are a God send!

LLLT is one of the most powerful non-surgical lasers on the market today and it gets RESULTS!
The light therapy signals Vasoendothelial Growth (VEGF), which signals the production of angiogenesis. Angiogenesis is the creation of new blood vessels, which is needed to repair nerve damage.
These blood vessels grow back around the peripheral nerves and provide them with the proper nutrients to heal and repair.
We also use state of the art digital electro therapeutic stimulation to assist in the growth of the nerves called Nerve ReEducation. This is used by the Cancers Centers of America in order to help those going through Chemotherapy rebuild the nerves. Nerve ReEducation can even be done at home, so therapy can be done daily! The results can be immediate in both pain relief and restoration of normal sensation.
Nerve cells need two things to heal...
1) Fuel
2) Activation
This makes the combination of high-powered lower level light therapy (FUEL) and Nerve Re-education (ACTIVATION) the perfect 1-2 punch for nerve regeneration!
The amount of treatment needed to allow the nerves to recover varies from person to person and can only be determined after a detailed neurological and vascular evaluation.

“My name is Roxy. I’m diabetic and my numbers were getting higher and higher; and I really was afraid my doctor was going to make me go on insulin. I knew I had to do something. I didn’t want a diet where I had to eat special foods. I went in shortly after I was done with Dr. Scharer’s program and all my numbers were where they should be. It was fantastic. I lost 38 pounds, and 15 inches. I started this last April and I have not gained the weight back. I’m feeling great and I hope to cute some more weight.”

“I would first like to thank Dr. Justin Scharer and the girls for all their help. And to anyone wanting to lose weight, “this is the real deal”. If I can do it anyone can because I ate just to eat, not because I needed it, but because I just liked to eat. I could not be happier.”

“I really enjoyed my experience with Dr. Scharer’s Wausau Weight Loss Program. It was well worth is. I was able to lose 48.8 pounds and 24.75 inches. The staff was excellent, very kind and helpful. It was truly amazing how fast the pounds melted off without any exercise. I feel this is a diet that really works, as I don’t have the cravings I’ve had after completing other diets. Scheduling was very flexible. I’d recommend this program to anyone wanting to lose weight in a healthy way!”
