Step 1
Screen the Spine
We check symptoms, neurological signs, movement tolerance and imaging where available before deciding if DTS decompression is suitable.

At DakshinRehab in Moosapet, Hyderabad, Dr. Swapnagandhi and our spine team use the Chattanooga DTS spinal decompression system for selected disc-related back and neck pain — paired with the rehabilitation that makes the relief last. No surgery, no injections. We see patients from across Hyderabad and the Gulf.
Personalised, technology-driven rehabilitation in Moosapet, Hyderabad.
We first confirm whether your pain pattern fits decompression. Force, angle and treatment position are selected around your diagnosis, symptoms and neurological findings, not applied as a fixed machine protocol.
Decompression may open a window of reduced pain and lower guarding. We use that window for manual therapy, core retraining, posture work and graded return to activity, because the machine is only one part of rehabilitation.
We check symptoms, neurological signs, movement tolerance and imaging where available before deciding if DTS decompression is suitable.
Chattanooga DTS uses controlled traction and rest cycles, with force progressed by comfort and clinical response.
Once pain and guarding reduce, physiotherapy rebuilds spinal control, load tolerance and confidence in daily movement.
Unlike generic traction, Chattanooga DTS uses controlled cyclic traction and rest cycles. The clinician selects force, angle and segment around your diagnosis, symptoms and neurological findings — never one-size-fits-all. The goal: reduce mechanical stress around irritated discs and nerve roots so pain settles enough for the rehabilitation work that drives long-term recovery.
Cyclic, computer-guided traction. Comfort-led force progression. Always paired with physiotherapy.
Cyclic traction and rest delivered through computerised control. Force, angle and the targeted segment are individualised — never the same protocol applied to every back.
Force is introduced gradually and adjusted to your tolerance. Sharp pain, radiating pain or muscle guarding are signals to pause — not push through.
In selected disc-related cases, decompression may reduce mechanical stress around irritated discs and nerve roots — easing leg or arm pain from sciatica or radiculopathy.
Sessions are paired with manual therapy, core retraining and posture work. The technology reduces the barrier to movement; physiotherapy restores it. Decompression alone is never enough.
You lie comfortably on the Chattanooga DTS table. Most patients feel a controlled stretch — not sharp pain. A typical session is around 45-60 minutes including preparation, treatment and post-session review.
A plan that fits your diagnosis — not a generic protocol
Positioned, comfortable, in control
Therapeutic decompression delivered safely
Relief translated into movement, not just rest
Response tracked — protocol adjusted next visit if needed
A clear, flexible roadmap
Every patient progresses at their own pace. The phases below describe the principles, not the calendar — the exact session count and frequency depend on your diagnosis, symptom severity, response to treatment and rehabilitation goals.
The first priority is to calm nerve sensitivity, improve sleep and sitting tolerance, and confirm there is no progressive neurological deficit. Decompression force stays gentle. We establish safe positions and movement limits before progressing.
Decompression parameters are dialled in based on response. We pair sessions with manual therapy, pain-free core activation and graded walking. The relief from a session becomes useful only when it translates into better daily movement.
Sessions taper. Focus shifts to trunk and hip strength, bending and lifting tolerance, workstation ergonomics, and a return to sport or gym activity where relevant. Long-term recovery depends on movement confidence and load management — not the machine alone.
We screen every patient before treatment. Spinal decompression is avoided or delayed when the spine needs urgent medical review or a safer alternative.
Bladder or bowel changes, saddle numbness, or rapidly worsening leg weakness
New or progressive numbness, weakness, or nerve symptoms
Recent trauma, suspected fracture, spinal infection, tumour, or unexplained night pain
Severe osteoporosis, pregnancy, or abdominal aortic aneurysm
Cervical myelopathy signs or severe central stenosis
Prior spine surgery, fusion hardware, blood thinners, or inflammatory spine disease need individual review

“Decompression on its own is not the treatment. The Chattanooga DTS system opens a window — less pressure on the disc, less irritation around the nerve root, less muscle guarding. In that window, what you do matters more than what the machine did. Core control returns. Walking tolerance returns. Sitting tolerance returns. We use the relief to teach the spine how to handle load again — that is what protects you long after the sessions end.”

Technology-relevant recovery stories showing how different patients adopt assessment, rehabilitation devices and home programmes in real-world routines.
Sharp pain ran from my lower back into my right calf, and I kept stopping during my Miyapur to Madhapur commute. My programme combined MRI review, decompression sessions, nerve-glide work and graded core training. By week eight, I could drive both ways and sit through client calls without the leg pain taking over.

I was frightened by the word degenerative on my scan and had stopped walking outside. The team explained what the MRI meant, then started gentle decompression, heat-based pain control and balance-safe strengthening. I now walk to the temple, cook without repeated chair breaks and know exactly which exercises settle a flare.

Watch DakshinRehab Moosapet patients describe how non-surgical spine decompression, laser therapy and Redcord (Neurac) helped them recover from disc and nerve-related back pain — without surgery.
I was advised spine surgery for a severe L4-L5 disc bulge. The 21-day rehabilitation programme at DakshinRehab — combining non-surgical spine decompression, laser therapy, and Redcord — restored my mobility without an operation.
