These are common disc and nerve-related patterns reviewed during a candidate evaluation.
Pain that travels from the lower back into the buttock, hip, leg, or foot may involve irritation of the sciatic nerve or related spinal structures.
Disc changes can sometimes irritate nearby nerves and create recurring back pain, neck pain, numbness, tingling, or radiating symptoms.
Narrowing around the spinal canal or nerve openings may contribute to leg pain, walking limits, or posture-related symptoms.
Age-related or wear-related disc changes can sometimes create recurring pain patterns that need a focused clinical review.
Back pain and sciatica can look similar from the outside, but the cause is not always the same.
That is why the evaluation comes first. The goal is not to place every patient into decompression care. The goal is to determine whether the problem appears disc-related, nerve-related, or better handled another way.
A focused evaluation helps determine whether you may be a candidate for non-surgical spinal decompression before a care plan is recommended.
Non-surgical spinal decompression may be considered for selected patients with disc-related back pain, neck pain, sciatica, or symptoms connected to herniated discs, bulging discs, spinal stenosis, or degenerative disc changes.
At SpinalAid Disc Center, the first step is a focused evaluation with Dr. David Nahali, D.C. to review your specific condition.
The goal is simple: determine whether you may be a candidate before recommending care.


The DRX9000 is the spinal decompression technology used at SpinalAid Disc Center to deliver controlled, targeted decompression to specific areas of the spine.
Unlike traditional traction, the system uses computer-controlled tension and relaxation cycles designed to reduce pressure on affected discs and irritated nerves while keeping treatment comfortable and precise.
Each session is adjusted based on the spinal level being treated and the patient's individual treatment plan.
A focused visit helps determine whether your symptoms, history, and imaging support a non-surgical decompression approach.

Your pain location, travel pattern, triggers, and prior care are reviewed.
Dr. David Nahali, D.C. reviews your history and MRI findings when available or clinically appropriate.
You receive guidance on whether your case appears appropriate for non-surgical spinal decompression or whether another direction may be needed.
For patients comparing non-surgical spinal decompression options, these guides explain how candidacy, MRI review, cost, and specific disc-related conditions are evaluated.
Learn how DRX9000 decompression care is reviewed for selected disc-related cases.
See how symptoms, history, exam findings, and imaging help determine whether decompression may be appropriate.
Understand why MRI findings matter when reviewing herniated discs, bulging discs, stenosis, and nerve compression.
Review how consultation cost, decompression care cost, and financing are discussed before treatment planning.
Review common signs and evaluation factors for herniated disc-related neck or back pain.
