Intersegmental Distraction in Newport Beach, CA
For Newport Beach residents near Corona del Mar, intersegmental distraction at Aligned Health means hands-on care, not a rushed appointment. Our office is about 20 minutes from Newport Beach via CA-73 toll road to Pacific Coast Highway. Most PPO plans are accepted.
We pair intersegmental distraction with whatever else the tissue actually needs — percussion, decompression, scraping, red light — so a Newport Beach patient is not sent across town for a second stop. That only works because all 14 services live in the same Laguna Hills suite.
How it works
Inside a intersegmental distraction session.
Lie back and relax
You lie face-up on the padded table, no belts or restraints needed.
Rollers travel your spine
The rollers move slowly up and down the length of your spine, gently mobilizing each segment.
Boost tissue circulation
Mobilization drives fresh blood into the spinal muscles and discs.
Prep for the next step
Most patients use it as a warm-up before adjustments or as a cool-down after.

Questions from local patients
Newport Beach FAQs.
Can I combine intersegmental distraction with other services in one visit?
Yes. Most Newport Beach patients pair intersegmental distraction with one or two other modalities in the same appointment, so the about 20 minutes from Newport Beach via CA-73 toll road to Pacific Coast Highway trip covers more ground.
Will my PPO cover intersegmental distraction if I live in Newport Beach?
Often yes, when it is medically necessary. We verify Aetna, Anthem, Blue Shield of CA, United, Cigna, and Meritain before the first visit. Call (949) 557-7208 from Newport Beach and we will tell you the copay before you get in the car.
What should I wear to intersegmental distraction if I am driving from Newport Beach?
Clothes you can move in. Skip the suit jacket. First visits run about 45 minutes; follow-ups are shorter. If you are coming from Corona del Mar, give yourself a few extra minutes on CA-73 toll road to Pacific Coast Highway at rush hour.
Is Intersegmental Distraction the right next step if I live in Newport Beach?
Intersegmental distraction uses a table with slow-moving rollers built underneath its padded surface. We will tell you on visit one whether it is the right tool, or whether you need something else in the same office — or a referral.
Is this an adjustment?
No. It’s mobilization, not manipulation. Different mechanism, gentler force. We often use both in the same visit.
Is it safe for older patients?
Yes. It’s one of our first-choice options when a patient prefers low-force care.
