The course of therapy varies from person to person, but most patients will require 10-30 sessions over a 3-4 week period. The treatment sessions are brief, lasting about 20 minutes. Disc distraction is most effective when combined with chiropractic adjustments, ice, muscle stimulation, and exercises, all of which are performed in our office and coordinated with your distraction therapy. The response time is usually swift due to the timeliness of treatment.

The cost for this procedure varies based on the patient’s response and insurance coverage. As a good measure, the cost for the 3-4 week period is usually between $700 - $990, however co-payments may mean substantially less out of pocket expense. In the case of no insurance coverage, various payment plans are available which makes this treatment affordable for most people.

These prices do not include additional services that may be necessary, such as x-rays.  Exact costs are unable to determine prior to evaluation.  Please call our office for more information.
