Vertebrae-Opener Apparatus

[Richard89]

A company claimed as successful in increasing its "patient"'s height by using this device (called VO apparatus).
It gives several testimonies from people who have successfully increased their heights by about 4 inches in the age older than 18 or 19 years old (which is when human skeleton stop growing)

Is it recommended or is there any implications or side effects that one may experience by doing that?


Below is the quotation that is taken from their website, http://www.ortopedi.org/science.html



Among the results of joining the ORTOPEDI written course, are:

   1. The increase in thickness of cartilage disks of the backbone, which leads to the increase of body height. *If thickness in each of the 12 cartilage disks in the backbone increases by 1 cm, it means that there will be a significant increase of 12 centimeters in the height of the body
   2. Improvement of the health of the body, because as we go along with our activities, shocks from the movements that may cause scratching of the spinal cord & nerves will not happen again.

Remember, even though the human skeleton`s growth usually stop at the age of 18 or 19 years, the Epiphyseal lines can still be stimulated to grow. This means increasing the length of the Shinbones and increasing the height of the body.

You're more than welcome to give them your money, but it's not something I would ever recommend to any of my readers.

Richard, that company could charge hundreds of thousands of dollars for that procedure if it actually increased peoples' height by 4-inches... yet they charge just $117? Plus it appears they're outside the US...

So, are you saying that their "scientific" claim is not true?
