Best Low Back Pain Relief Doctor in La Jolla, California

 

For anyone in La Jolla struggling with stubborn or recurring low back pain, relief can often feel just out of reach. You may have tried medications, chiropractic adjustments, stretching, or physical therapy — only to find the pain keeps coming back.

That’s when many patients discover the difference that Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) under Dr. Cassidy Boelk, DC can make.

At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, Dr. Boelk uses a rare combination of hands-on doctor oversight, advanced DRX9000 technology, and individually tailored treatment programs to help patients not only relieve pain but also restore strength and stability — all without surgery.

 

Why So Many Choose Dr. Boelk

Patients often say that what stands out most is how much care and attention they receive from Dr. Boelk and his team. Every setting on each DRX9000 session is adjusted by Dr. Boelk himself, based on your unique spinal levels, medical history, and progress — not a preset protocol.

 

“Dr. Boelk & his staff are by far the BEST at spinal decompression. I walked into his office unable to sit to do my job, where I was having to lay each day, and within a couple of weeks he helped me with being able to sit again. His attention to you & the way he will make you feel is unparalleled.

 

First of all, he has suffered from some severe back issues, so his empathy is very high. Secondly, he is extremely caring & genuinely wants to help people.

I’ve never worked with a doctor who has cared as much and made me feel like I was his only patient before. There would be four people there at the same time, and he still made me feel this way. I cannot thank him enough & cannot recommend him enough. He is an angel on earth.”
— Erin Turk. CA

 

Patients describe Dr. Boelk’s approach as a balance of clinical precision and genuine empathy — a combination that has drawn individuals from across La Jolla, Del Mar, Carmel Valley, and far beyond.

 

From Alaska to San Diego for Lasting Relief

“My name is Lynn. I am from Alaska, and I just want to say it was totally worth taking a trip to go to the Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego. I was having pain radiating down my legs, I couldn’t sleep, I could barely walk.

After treatment I am back to shoveling snow, teaching school, taking walks. So, I just want to thank Dr. Boelk and the clinic, you guys are wonderful, and you have created such a wonderful, friendly, kind and truly caring atmosphere. I highly encourage anybody that might be considering spinal decompression therapy, it really makes a difference.”
— Lynn C., Alaska

 

When people are willing to travel thousands of miles for care, it says something about the level of trust and consistency a doctor has earned.

• Combined Active & Passive Care
  Dr. Boelk pairs decompression with simple, targeted mobility and stability exercises so results last.

  With 7 DRX9000 machines and over 75,000 sessions performed, this clinic is the region’s trusted leader in Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression.

 

Understanding Low Back Pain — and Why It Lingers

The spinal discs act as shock absorbers between vertebrae. When compressed, they lose hydration and height, pinching nerves and causing pain that can spread into the hips or legs.

Typical treatments like pain pills or standard traction don’t address the core issue — pressure and nutrient loss inside the disc.

 

Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression fixes this by gently pulling nutrients and oxygen back in, creating a healthy environment for the disc to recover naturally.

 

Simple At-Home Steps for Back Pain Relief

1. Use Ice, Not Heat — 15–20 minutes each hour over a shirt to calm inflammation.
2. Short Walks 2–3× Daily — gentle movement improves disc circulation.
3. Hamstring Stretch in Chair — sit tall, extend one leg straight, toes up, and lean forward slightly for 15 seconds; repeat 3 times per side.
4. Avoid Long Sitting — stand every 45 minutes and use a lumbar support.
5. Stay Hydrated — discs need fluid to stay resilient.

These habits can ease strain and help prepare your spine for lasting healing when you begin care.
