You were unfortunately in the unlucky 2%-5%.

Downtown Sports Physio / Tower Physio in general are good recommendations.
Yeah I guess it doesn't work for everyone as I said. I just know that after trying everything else, and currently on the list for surgery, that's the only thing that's given me any relief. I too have tried almost every non-surgical intervention I can think of, with either limited or no results. A lot of the pain relief medications do almost nothing, and same with injections and things like that. I've kind of accepted that surgery is the only legitimate fix here, but that's also not a guarantee. There are other instabilities and issues created in the back, hardware that gets loose or causes issues and all kinds of concerns. Its frustrating in general to try to solve this problem.
