Best Non-Surgical Treatment for Herniated Disc in Chula Vista, CA
When you’re living with a herniated disc, every movement can feel like a challenge. Whether it’s pain radiating down the leg, numbness in the hips or feet, or the constant ache in the lower back, daily activities become exhausting. Many people are told surgery is their only choice — but that’s not true for everyone.
At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, patients from Chula Vista and all across Southern California discover a proven non-surgical solution: Spinal Decompression Therapy using the DRX9000.
What Makes Spinal Decompression Different
Unlike medications or injections that only mask symptoms, spinal decompression focuses on correcting the source of the problem. The FDA-cleared DRX9000 system gently stretches the spine in a highly controlled way that:
-
Lowers pressure inside the disc to allow herniated material to move back into place.
-
Restores blood flow, oxygen, and nutrients to damaged tissue.
-
Reduces irritation and compression on spinal nerves.
-
Supports the body’s natural healing process.
This technology has been studied and supported by world-class institutions including Stanford University, Johns Hopkins, Duke Medical Center, and the Mayo Clinic.

Success Stories From Patients
Calder Pearce – San Diego, CA (3/07/25)
“Dr. Boelk and his team are the best in the business! I had lower back problems for 5+ years and saw 6 other doctors. I came in not able to bend and walking with a limp. By February, I was bending again with minimal pain, and by March I was completely pain-free. I am EXTREMELY happy I avoided surgery and found Dr. Boelk.”
Marlo Surovsky – San Diego, CA
“After two failed cortisone shots and being told surgery might be my only option, I found Dr. Boelk. I never felt rushed, I felt heard, and his treatment plan worked. After 18 treatments I am completely pain-free. No meds. Just committing to the plan. This was life-changing.”
Lisa S. – United Kingdom
“I travel from the UK to see Dr. Boelk and his team. I have 3 bulging discs and one pressing on a nerve. The DRX9000 decompression treatments keep me active and pain-free. I will not go anywhere else.”
Kaitelyn H. – San Diego, CA
“I went from needing to lay down for hours a day to living normally and exercising again. The care, the decompression, and the exercises Dr. Boelk gave me have been life-changing. One of the best decisions I’ve ever made for my back.”
