San Francisco DRX9000 Doctor Speaks Out About Costs!

Not all SF Bay Area Spinal Decompression Doctors Are The Same

Recently, I have noticed an increase in the amount of inquiries we get by email and by phone, that have to do with the price of spinal decompression with the DRX9000.

We will hear questions like this:

1. How much is spinal decompression per session?

2. What do you charge for the DRX9000?

3. What kind of insurance do you accept for the DRX9000?

So...I would like to address some of these issues now. First of all, each case is handled differently at our clinic...Executive Express Chiropractic at the Embarcadero Center in downtown San Francisco.

Some patients may have only a single level disc herniation...while others have lumbar disc herniations at every level. Some patients are young....some are older. Some patients have both herniated discs in the lumbar spine and herniated disc in the cervical spine. Thoracic disc herniations are rare...but often times they get picked up when we order a lumbar MRI...this complicates matters.

Anyway...to just throw a price out there, without having examined the patient, seems unprofessional to me. It's not like buying a gallon of gasoline. There is an art to making proper recommendations and setting patients up on the DRX9000. And, there are decisions that need to be made throughout the DRX decompression treatment process. Experience is key... and just like with anything else...you get what you pay for.

As far as insurance goes...there are NO codes for DRX9000 spinal decompression therapy...it is still considered experimental. However, depending on your insurance plan, they may cover some of the ancillary charges such as ice, muscle stimulation, exercises, re-exams, and home care instruction.

Not every patient needs the same amount of DRX9000 treatment sessions. Some patients need less than the 20 recommended by the manufacturer...and some patients need more.

And...not everyone is a candidate...at our spinal decompression center you have to be accepted as a patient first... and this cannot be done over the telephone.

So...just be leery...because again...you get what you pay for.

Check the clinics website...go visit the doctor and their staff. Hear what they have to say...does it make sense?

Personally, I like to keep a treatment diary online...that's what this back and wrist pain blog is all about...so that prospective patients can learn about my treatment philosophy before they come in. Does the other decompression doctor do this? It takes a lot of time and effort. And,  it also takes a lot of time and effort to perfect the DRX9000 spinal decompression treatment. Come see for yourself.

If you would like to find out if you are a candidate for the DRX9000 at Executive Express Chiropractic in the SF Financial District...simply call 415-392-2225, press ext 1 (24 hour live operator). Ask for a complimentary consultation with Dr. Eben Davis.
