LATEST DRX 9000 STUDY SHOWS 88.9% SUCCESS RATE

DATA FROM A RECENT MULTI-CENTER PILOT STUDY UTILIZING AXIOM
WORLDWIDE’S DRX9000™ REVEALS A DRAMATIC SUCCESS RATE OF  88.9%!

Clinical results to be presented at the 2007 annual conference of the
American Academy of Pain Management.

Tampa, FL September 5, 2007: The clinical results of an IRB-approved
prospective, multi-center, phase II, non-randomized pilot study utilizing the
DRX9000™ will be presented at the 18th Annual Clinical Meeting of the
American Academy of Pain Management in Las Vegas, NV September 27- 30,
2007. The study, authored by Dr. John Leslie of The Mayo Clinic, was
designed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the DRX9000 in the
treatment of chronic lower back pain. Patients enrolled in the study had
suffered an overall average of ten years of chronic back pain. After two
weeks of treatments on the DRX9000 there was a 50% reduction in pain
scores and upon completion of the entire six week protocol an amazing
success rate of 88.9% was documented. The patients also reported an
improvement in their Oswestry Disability score. Abstracts and copies of the
presentation will be made available following the release of the study data at
the American Academy of Pain Management.

Non-treatment or control groups were not included making efficacy outcome
versus placebo or spontaneous recovery difficult to determine. Randomized
double-blinded or comparative long-term outcome trials are needed to
further prove the efficacy of non-surgical spinal decompression systems
such as the DRX9000Ô for the routine treatment of chronic LBP. This study
was partially funded by Axiom Worldwide.

Improve Clincal Outcomes in Spinal Decompression

Spinal Decompression is the only corrective procedure for disc injuries that
has been proven to increase hydration of the disc, repair the connective
tissue structures of the disc, retract herniated or bulged disc material and
improve the structural integrity of the disc and surrounding tissues.  This is
something that back surgery cannot do.  Low back surgery only removes the
small portion of the disc that is damaged and is pressing on the pain
producing nerves.  It does nothing to improve the quality of the disc or
surrounding structures.  That is the reason why so many back surgeries fail,
because you are left with the same bad disc minus the small piece that was
surgically removed.  This means you have a high potential for re-rupturing
the disc.   While surgery may temporarily reduce your back or leg pain, it
does not change the integrity of the disc or improve the quality of the disc
and joints of the spine.

Before and after MRI studies show retraction of herniated disc material,
healed
annular fibers and improved re-hydration of the disc.  This is
documented in the
Journal of NeuroImaging
