Frequently Asked Questions About
Disc Restoration Therapy & Spinal Decompression

How long does Disc Restoration Therapy take?

Most patients complete their initial care program over 6 to 8 weeks, with treatments typically scheduled several times per week. The exact length depends on your condition, overall health, and how your body responds to therapy. After an initial consultation, we’ll design a plan that’s tailored specifically to your needs and goals.

Is spinal decompression therapy safe?

When properly administered, non-surgical spinal decompression is considered a low-risk therapy for many patients with disc-related issues. The DRX9000® system continuously monitors your body’s resistance during each session, making real-time adjustments to ensure safety and comfort. As always, a full evaluation is essential to determine if you’re a good candidate for this type of care.

Does spinal decompression hurt?

Most patients describe spinal decompression as a gentle, relieving stretch. In fact, most patients fall asleep during the treatment. Our team closely monitors your comfort throughout every session at both our Campbell and San Mateo offices.

What conditions can Disc Restoration Therapy help manage?

Disc Restoration Therapy may be appropriate for a range of spinal disc conditions, including:

  • Herniated or bulging discs
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Sciatica
  • Spinal stenosis
  • Chronic neck or lower back pain related to disc dysfunction

We’ll review your full history and imaging, if available, to ensure the best possible approach to care.

 

How do I know if I’m a candidate?

The best way to find out is to schedule a consultation. Dr. Ferrigno will perform a thorough evaluation, review your MRI’s and discuss your options based on your specific condition, health history, and goals.
