Frequently Asked Questions

What is IDD Therapy, and can it help with sciatica?
  • The answer is a definitive ‘yes’.
  • This is why we bought the equipment in 2016 because we realised that sciatica is so commonplace.
  • Since then, we have treated 100’s people just like you as part of The Buxton Back Care Program for Sciatica.
  • IDD Therapy is a very gentle, non-invasive treatment that uses targeted computer controlled pulling forces to relieve pressure on discs and trapped nerves.
  • It’s designed to help conditions like sciatica by reducing disc bulges, easing nerve irritation, and promoting natural healing.
  • This safe alternative to surgery or injections helps many people with sciatica regain comfort and function.

If you’re experiencing pain shooting down the leg, numbness, tingling, or weakness – it could be sciatica. At Buxton & Bakewell Osteopathy Clinic, we’re one of the few clinics in the UK to offer advanced solutions like IDD Therapy– a targeted, non-surgical treatment for disc problems and a fast and affordable referral system for MRI scans and MRI interpretation.

We also provide both Focused and Radial Shockwave Therapy, alongside expert, hands-on osteopathy. Our unique combination of advanced technology and specialist care makes us a leading destination for spine and disc pain relief.

  • Not everyone is eligible for IDD Therapy and sometimes interventional procedures (although uncommon) such as surgery may be more suitable.
  • Yes, you can often still have IDD Therapy even if you’ve had previous spinal surgery, but this does depend on the type of surgery.
  • If you have had surgery that includes spinal implants, which is uncommon, such as metal work or other devices IDD Therapy is not suitable for you.
  • For most patients with a surgical history such as a discectomy IDD Therapy is a good choice because it is a gentle, non-invasive treatment designed to target your disc and nerve issues.
  • A full assessment is essential to ensure it’s safe and suitable for you.
  • We will assess your condition during a detailed examination on an initial consultation, and if imaging is required, we’ll advise you.
