What is the DRX9000?
Back pain is a common ailment that affects a significant portion of the population. According to conservative estimates, up to 66% of individuals will experience severe back pain at some point. Many of these patients wish to seek non-surgical and medication-free solutions for their pain and movement dysfunction. In an attempt to avoid surgery, they may look for a holistic approach to address their symptoms and improve their overall well-being.
That’s where non-surgical DRX9000 spinal decompression treatments come in.
The DRX9000 is a medical table that is used to treat chronic back pain caused by herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, sciatica, and other spinal conditions. It does this through a process known as “spinal decompression”. Spinal decompression therapy involves gently stretching the spine to relieve pressure and allow nutrients and oxygen to flow to the affected area.
This innovative device consists of a padded bed, a computerized control system, and a set of harnesses to secure the patient during treatment. The patient lies on the bed, and the harnesses are attached to the DRX9000’s computer-controlled pulleys. Then, the pulleys gently stretch the spine, creating negative pressure within the discs and promoting healing.

Your Intouch Consultation
Our professionals at Intouch Chiropractic in San Diego, California will conduct a thorough medical evaluation to determine if you’re a suitable candidate for DRX9000 spinal decompression. During this initial intake appointment at our office in Mission Valley, we’ll discuss your symptoms and treatment goals and recommend other diagnostics if necessary.
For example, MRI scanning technology is considered the gold standard for diagnosing herniated discs and identifying degenerative changes in the neck or lower back that may be causing pain. Patients experiencing radiating pain in their arms or legs may be referred for MRI imaging following a series of X-rays.
What to Expect During Your DRX9000 Treatment Session
Here is what you can generally expect during DRX9000 spinal decompression therapy:
- A warm welcome to our San Diego office
- You’re then positioned on the DRX9000 table, which is equipped with a pelvic harness and upper body harness to stabilize you during treatment
- The table is programmed to apply a gentle, pulling force to your spine, which creates negative pressure in the affected discs, allowing them to retract and heal
- The pulling force is adjusted based on your comfort level and response to treatment
- The treatment typically lasts 26 minutes, during which you may relax, read, or listen to music
- After treatment, you may be advised to ice the treated area for 20 minutes to reduce inflammation and optimize results
We generally recommend a treatment plan of 16-24 sessions over 8-12 weeks, although each patient’s needs may vary. Treatment plans may need to be adjusted accordingly. Each visit to our Mission Valley office will typically last approximately 50-60 minutes.
We understand the value of our patients’ time and strive to ensure they receive the maximum benefit from their spinal decompression treatments with our DRX9000.

What Is the DRX9000?
The DRX9000 is a medical table used to perform non-surgical spinal decompression therapy. It uses a computerized control system and harnesses to gently stretch the spine, relieving pressure on herniated or degenerative discs and allowing nutrients and oxygen to flow to the affected area. It is used at Intouch Chiropractic in San Diego to treat chronic back pain, sciatica, degenerative disc disease, and related conditions.
What Conditions Does DRX9000 Spinal Decompression Treat?
DRX9000 spinal decompression treats chronic back pain caused by herniated discs, bulging discs, degenerative disc disease, sciatica, spinal stenosis, and other spinal conditions.
What Are the Benefits of DRX9000 Spinal Decompression Therapy?
Benefits include significant pain relief, improved mobility and range of motion, customized computerized treatment targeting specific spinal areas, no surgical downtime, minimal side effects, and cost-effectiveness compared to surgery or other medical interventions.
What Should I Expect During a DRX9000 Session?
You will be positioned on the DRX9000 table using a harness suited to the area being treated — a pelvic and upper body harness for lumbar sessions, or a cervical headpiece for neck treatment. The computerized system applies a gentle pulling force to the spine, creating negative pressure in the affected discs. Each session lasts approximately 26 minutes. After treatment, icing the area for 20 minutes is recommended. Total visit time is approximately 50–60 minutes.
How Many DRX9000 Sessions Will I Need?
A typical treatment plan consists of 16–24 sessions over 8–12 weeks, though individual needs vary. Your chiropractor at Intouch Chiropractic will develop a personalized plan based on your condition and response to treatment.
Is DRX9000 Spinal Decompression Non-Surgical?
Yes. DRX9000 spinal decompression is completely non-invasive and drug-free. It requires no surgery, no anesthesia, and typically involves no downtime, allowing most patients to return to daily activities immediately after their session.
Am I a Candidate for DRX9000 Spinal Decompression in San Diego?
Candidacy is determined through a comprehensive evaluation at Intouch Chiropractic in San Diego. During the consultation, your symptoms and treatment goals are reviewed. MRI or X-ray imaging may be recommended to confirm the diagnosis before beginning a DRX9000 treatment plan.
Who Shouldn't Use the DRX9000?
The DRX9000 isn't appropriate for every patient. It's not recommended for patients who are pregnant, have metastatic cancer, or have severe osteoporosis. Because we treat both the cervical and lumbar spine, a fracture or fusion is evaluated at that specific level — for example, a cervical fracture wouldn't rule out lumbar decompression, and vice versa. A comprehensive evaluation, including imaging, confirms candidacy before treatment begins.
