"AFTER ABOUT 12 TREATMENTS, MY SCIATICA WAS GONE"
"I have had an outstanding experience with Dr. Boelk and his staff at The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego.
They follow a very structured treatment protocol and utilize the best spinal decompression equipment available. I've been treated elsewhere using lower-quality decompression systems and never experienced meaningful improvement.
Dr. Boelk is attentive, professional, and genuinely cares about every patient. You can see it in the way he interacts with everyone who walks through the door.
After about 12 treatments, my sciatica was gone and I was nearly back to normal. Honestly, I wasn't sure I would ever heal. What surprised me most was that after my very first treatment, I experienced significant relief and was able to sleep mostly pain-free for the first time in months.
The improvement has allowed me to get back to hiking, traveling, and enjoying life again.
This treatment was one of the best investments I've ever made.
Thank you, Dr. Boelk and your entire team."

WHAT IS A HERNIATED DISC?
A herniated disc occurs when disc material extends beyond its normal boundary and begins irritating nearby spinal nerves.
Depending on severity, MRI reports may describe:
✔ Disc Bulge
✔ Disc Protrusion
✔ Disc Herniation
✔ Disc Extrusion
Common symptoms may include:
✔ Sciatica
✔ Burning Leg Pain
✔ Foot Numbness
✔ Tingling
✔ Weakness
✔ Difficulty Sitting
✔ Difficulty Driving
✔ Difficulty Sleeping
Many patients are surprised to learn that symptoms felt in the leg and foot are often originating from a problem in the lower back.
WHY DO SO MANY HERNIATED DISC PATIENTS STRUGGLE TO GET BETTER?
One of the biggest misconceptions patients have is believing spinal discs heal like muscles.
They don't.
Unlike muscles and many other tissues in the body, spinal discs have very little direct blood supply.
This is one reason disc injuries often heal much more slowly than patients expect.
Many people experience:
Relief.
Then a flare-up.
Relief again.
Then another setback.
for months—or even years.
After a while, many begin asking:
"Why does this keep happening?"
"Why does it feel like nothing is fixing the problem?"
"Will I eventually need surgery?"
These are some of the most common questions we hear every day.
WHY NON-SURGICAL SPINAL DECOMPRESSION?
One of the goals of Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression is to create a pressure gradient within the disc that may help facilitate the movement of:
✔ Water
✔ Oxygen
✔ Nutrients
✔ Blood Flow To The Surrounding Structures That Support Disc Health
For the right patient, this may help improve the disc healing environment while reducing pressure on irritated nerves.
Not every patient qualifies.
That is why every patient is carefully evaluated before recommendations are made.
WHY PATIENTS SEEK OUT DR. CASSIDY BOELK, DC
When patients are researching treatment options, they often want to know who is actually evaluating them and what experience that doctor has treating disc-related conditions.

Unlike many offices that offer spinal decompression as a small part of their practice, helping patients with herniated discs, disc bulges, sciatica, and chronic spinal conditions is a primary focus of ours.
DR. BOELK UNDERSTANDS THESE INJURIES PERSONALLY
Long before helping patients with spinal injuries, Dr. Boelk suffered a fractured L5 vertebra himself while wrestling.
Years later, additional disc injuries and chronic pain forced him to spend thousands of hours researching rehabilitation, biomechanics, spinal decompression, and non-surgical treatment options.
Those experiences ultimately helped shape the treatment philosophy used in the office today.
Many patients appreciate working with a doctor who understands not only the clinical side of these injuries, but the personal side as well.
"I NEVER ENDED UP NEEDING THE SURGERY APPOINTMENT"
"Last year, I spent three months constantly going back and forth between doctor's appointments and urgent care. The pain was unbearable—I was taking medication regularly just to get through the day. Getting out of bed was excruciating, and walking or standing felt like torture. Every step filled me with dread.
In December, my doctor finally ordered an MRI. That's when I learned I had an extruded disc pressing on my L5 nerve. My doctor scheduled two follow-up appointments: one for pain management (spinal injections), and another to evaluate me for surgery.
Then I discovered spinal decompression therapy. I was thrilled to find a non-invasive alternative.
I never ended up needing either of those appointments.
Now, I'm walking regularly, standing up straight—something I couldn't do before. When I first sought help, I was so hunched over that I had to use a cane just to move forward. Because of the pain, I hadn't exercised in months. But now, I'm doing a program called 75 Hard which requires not one but two 45-minute workouts per day, and I've even gotten back to lifting weights.
I'm so thankful I found this place. Dr. Boelk and the staff are incredibly friendly and professional, and the treatments have made a tremendous difference in my life."

"IT HURT SO BAD IT MADE ME WANT TO CRY"
"I have been dealing with back pain for several years. It got so bad that I had surgery 5 years ago for a bulging disc. About 5 months ago the disc bulged again hitting my sciatic nerve creating pain in my legs that made me want to cry it hurt so bad.
After trying so many other options I was fortunate enough to find The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego.
