Clinical evidence
IDD has been shown to provide effective pain relief in 60–80% of patients. In addition, it has been shown to improve patients’ overall mood and reduce the need for extra pain relief. This has helped many patients improve their quality of life and participate more fully in daily activities, in many cases returning to work.
