SUFFERING WITH BACK PAIN?
TRIED MANUAL TREATMENTS?
IDD THERAPY IS FOR YOU.
IDD Therapy is the targeted disc treatment for sufferers of
back pain, neck pain and related symptoms such as sciatica.
In clinics nationwide, this non-invasive option helps to bridge
the gap between ‘hands-on’ treatments and surgery.
What is IDD Therapy?
Intervertebral Differential Dynamics
(IDD) Therapy is a non-invasive, targeted
disc treatment for unresolved back pain,
neck pain and associated symptoms such as
arm pain and leg pain (sciatica).
Available through a network of spinal
disc specialists across the UK, IDD Therapy
delivers a precise and more consistent
treatment than is possible with the hands
alone or with traditional mechanical
methods like traction.
Over 38,000 treatments
carried out in the UK
What does the programme involve?
You will be fully assessed before undergoing
treatment; this includes a review of a recent
MRI or suitable scan.
With IDD Therapy we have an advanced
non-invasive option which enables us to do much
more for patients without having to send them for
injections or surgery. It’s the perfect complement to
the work we do with our hands, helping to create
the right environment for the body to heal itself.

I suffered with excruciating
back pain and sciatica for years.
After IDD Therapy I can now get
a good night’s sleep without
constantly waking with the pain.
I would recommend it to anyone
who is suffering like I did.

You will feel totally relaxed during
the 25 minute session on the SPINA
machine. Afterwards, some cold
therapy is applied to minimise any
temporary soreness which may be
caused by muscles being worked in
a new way.
Gentle exercise and activity are
gradually introduced as treatment
progresses - essential for long-term
pain relief.
Who can benefit from IDD Therapy?
Typical candidates for IDD Therapy
are people who have had back pain,
neck pain or sciatica for some time and
have not responded to manual therapy
and exercise.
Reasons to choose IDD Therapy
• Your current treatment is not working
• You want to stop taking painkillers
• You are seeking long-term pain relief
• You want to return to normal activities

How does IDD Therapy work?
IDD Therapy uses gentle pulling forces
to distract (draw apart) specific spinal
segments where discs are damaged or
bulging, removing pressure and irritation
from targeted discs and any trapped nerves.
Patients have a structured programme of
regular IDD Therapy sessions which allows
their body to adapt to treatment whilst
progressively relieving pain and improving
movement.
Treatment is gentle and safe. Sessions
begin with some Thermedic heat therapy
on the area to be treated, warming up the
muscles and ligaments.
You will remain fully clothed throughout
treatment and be fitted with a soft, ergonomic
harness for comfort and support. The machine
tilts upright, allowing you to step on from the
standing position without pain or difficulty.
Once you are comfortably harnessed,
computer-controlled pulling forces are gently
