- severe sciatica
- burning leg pain
- disc bulges

Because Kearny Mesa is centrally located near several major freeways, many patients working in:

- sales
- driving-based jobs
spend long hours:
- sitting
- commuting

—all of which may aggravate irritated spinal discs and nerves.
As a Certified Spinal Decompression Doctor, Certified Pain-Free Performance Specialist, founder of the Spinal Decompression Training Academy, and a doctor who has personally performed over 100,000 spinal decompression treatments, Dr. Boelk focuses heavily on helping patients determine whether spinal disc pressure and nerve irritation may actually be contributing to symptoms.
“For the First Time in 10 Years, I Am Totally Pain Free”
“For the first time in 10 years, I am totally pain free. My sciatica is gone and I have no more back pain! I've had back pain and sciatica for over 10 years and after trying everything under the sun I was skeptical that anything could help me.
Dr. Boelk and his staff were incredibly professional and truly cared about helping me get better.
I only wish I had found this office sooner.”
— Rosa Algravez, San Diego, CA
Many patients are surprised to learn that burning leg pain may actually originate from irritated spinal nerves rather than the leg muscles themselves.

Why Does Burning Leg Pain Happen?
In many cases, burning pain may occur when spinal nerves become irritated or inflamed.
Depending on:
- disc involvement
- inflammation
- prolonged sitting
- driving stress
- spinal positioning
- movement dysfunction
patients may experience:
- burning pain
- tingling
- numbness
- electrical sensations
- calf tightness
- weakness
- foot pain
- worsening symptoms sitting
This is one reason Dr. Boelk evaluates:
- posture
- sitting tolerance
- spinal loading
- movement mechanics
- spinal stability
- hip mobility
- MRI findings if available
rather than simply treating all sciatica the same way.
2 Things Some Patients May Try at Home
⚠️ These movements are NOT appropriate for everyone.
If symptoms worsen significantly:
- stop immediately
- avoid pushing through severe pain
- seek proper evaluation
1. Relaxed Prone Lying
Some patients dealing with disc-related sciatica may temporarily feel relief laying relaxed on their stomach for several minutes.
This should be:
- passive
- relaxed
- comfortable
NOT:
- forceful
- painful
- aggressive extension stretching
2. Gentle Standing Back Bends
For SOME patients, gentle standing back bends may temporarily help reduce irritation aggravated by prolonged sitting or bending forward.
⚠️ Stop immediately if symptoms worsen further down the leg.
These movements are sometimes directional-preference based, which is why proper assessment matters.
“After Just a Few Sessions I Noticed a Difference”
“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 and chiropractic center of San Diego.
After just a few sessions I noticed a difference.
Now after being there for the past few months I'm able to go about my normal life again.
What a blessing it was to find a Dr that genuinely cares and knows how to help people in my situation.”
— Anthony K., San Diego, CA
