Pain that keeps returning means the mechanical cause was never addressed. Every week of untreated spinal dysfunction makes correction harder.
- Back pain lasting more than 2 weeks, or that keeps returning
- Pain travelling down the leg, hip or buttock (sciatica)
- Numbness, tingling or weakness in the legs or feet
- Worse when sitting, bending or standing for long periods
- Diagnosed slipped disc, disc bulge, herniated disc or spinal stenosis
- You have been advised surgery and want a second opinion
Common causes of back pain, and how they show up
Slipped / herniated disc
The soft centre of a disc pushes out and presses on a nerve. Sharp lower back pain, leg pain, numbness.
Disc bulge
The disc flattens and bulges outward without rupturing. Dull ache, stiffness, pain on sitting.
Sciatica
Irritation of the sciatic nerve, usually from a disc problem. Pain from the lower back down one leg, tingling.
Spinal stenosis
Narrowing of the spinal canal. Pain and heaviness in the legs on walking, relief on sitting.
Lumbar spondylosis
Age-related wear of the lower spine. Chronic stiffness and morning pain.
Muscle strain / postural pain
Overuse or poor posture, common in desk jobs. Localised ache, no leg symptoms.
How we treat back pain at Spine Science & Beyond
Your plan is decided after a clinical examination and a review of your MRI or X-ray. If you do not have a scan, we will tell you whether one is needed.
Non-surgical spinal decompression
A motorised table gently stretches the spine to reduce pressure inside the disc, letting a bulging or herniated disc retract and nutrients flow back in. 20–30 minutes a session; most patients need 12–20 sessions.
Digital spine analysis first
Posture analysis, movement assessment, MRI review and pain history. This tells us whether the pain is coming from a disc, a nerve, a joint or a movement pattern, so treatment targets the cause.
Spine-focused physiotherapy
Not generic exercises. Core stabilisation, extension-based work, nerve mobilisation and posture retraining, built around your scan and your movement pattern.
Supportive recovery therapies
Hydrotherapy for muscle spasm, targeted cryotherapy for swelling, pneumatic compression for circulation and HBOT to speed tissue repair. Added only when they shorten recovery.
Non-surgical treatment vs spine surgery
| Non-surgical treatment | Spine surgery | |
|---|---|---|
| Suitable for | Most disc, nerve and degenerative back pain | Severe nerve compression, instability, failed conservative care |
| Hospital stay | None, outpatient sessions | 2–5 days |
| Recovery time | Continue daily activities during treatment | 6–12 weeks |
| Risks | Minimal | Infection, nerve injury, failed back syndrome |
| Reversible | Yes | No |
Surgery is the right choice for a small number of patients, and we will tell you clearly if you are one of them. For everyone else, a structured non-surgical programme should be tried first.

Patients who avoided surgery
Real patient experiences, in their own words.
“Three herniated discs and I was told surgery was my only option. I decided to try SSB first and I am so glad I did. After 12 sessions I was back at my desk job without any pain. The team explains every step of the process which made me feel very confident.”
“After my second pregnancy I developed severe lower back pain that made it impossible to pick up my child. Within 8 sessions the pain was gone. The staff are very caring and the clinic is very clean and professional. Highly recommend to any new mothers.”
“I was sceptical about non-surgical treatment at first but my orthopaedic surgeon had a long waiting list. I am glad I gave this a try. My sciatica has reduced by about 80 percent and I can now play cricket with my kids on weekends again.”
“I have been suffering from cervical spondylosis for over 4 years. Physiotherapy and painkillers were not giving me lasting relief. The spinal decompression therapy here changed everything. Six months on and I have not needed a single painkiller.”
“The posture analysis was a real eye opener. I had no idea how badly my posture was contributing to my neck and shoulder pain. The personalised treatment plan addressed everything and I started seeing results within the first week.”
“Amazing experience, could not have been happier with the treatment.”
Frequently asked questions
Still unsure? Message us on WhatsApp and a specialist will reply.
Ask on WhatsAppCan a slipped disc be cured without surgery?
Yes, in most cases. Around 90% of disc herniations improve with non-surgical treatment such as spinal decompression and physiotherapy within 6 to 12 weeks. Surgery is considered only if there is severe or worsening nerve damage.
How many sessions of spinal decompression are needed?
Most patients need 12 to 20 sessions over 4 to 6 weeks. Pain usually starts reducing within the first 5 to 8 sessions.
How long does recovery take?
Acute back pain often settles in 2 to 4 weeks. Disc-related pain with leg symptoms usually takes 6 to 12 weeks of structured treatment.
Is spinal decompression therapy painful?
No. The stretch is gradual and controlled. Most patients find it relaxing, and many fall asleep during the session.
Do I need an MRI before starting treatment?
Not always. If you have leg pain, numbness or weakness, an MRI helps us plan treatment. For simple mechanical back pain, a clinical examination is often enough.
Is the treatment covered by insurance?
Outpatient physiotherapy and decompression are generally not covered by Indian health insurance. We provide itemised bills for any reimbursement claim.
Do I need a referral to book?
No. Book directly by phone, WhatsApp or the appointment page. Bring any MRI or X-ray reports you already have.
Can I continue working during treatment?
Yes. Treatment is outpatient and each session takes under an hour. We adjust your plan around your work.
