Ollie Harbin
At 87 years old, Ollie Harbin was experiencing severe pain down her right leg. For nearly two years she struggled with intense pain that physical therapy and steroid injections did not alleviate.
As an avid bowler, Ollie holds the record for the oldest female to bowl a perfect 300 game. To keep her streak up, she knew she had to find a solution if she wanted to get back to her passion without pain.
In 2015, Ollie underwent surgery. The Axle Interspinous Fusion System was placed at L4-L5 of her lumbar spine.

“I am so happy and pain free. I am back to normal activities, and of course, bowling. I have not taken any pain medication since my surgery and feel great. This Axle surgery has changed my life.”
