Chronic Low Back Pain Relief – Kearny Mesa, CA

Living with chronic low back pain can make even simple tasks—like sitting at work, picking up your kids, or getting out of bed—feel overwhelming. At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, located near the heart of Kearny Mesa, we specialize in helping patients find lasting relief without drugs, injections, or surgery.

Led by Dr. Cassidy Boelk DC, a Certified Spinal Decompression Doctor, we’ve helped thousands of patients recover from long-standing back pain through a proven, non-invasive approach that combines the latest technology with individualized care plans.

Why Chronic Low Back Pain Occurs

Many of our patients in Kearny Mesa come to us after struggling for months or even years with symptoms like:

• Dull, aching pain in the lower back
• Shooting or radiating pain down the legs
• Muscle stiffness and fatigue
• Difficulty standing, walking, or sitting for long periods

These symptoms are often the result of bulging or herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, or nerve compression. And while medications may dull the pain, they don’t fix the root cause.

Why Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) Works

We exclusively use the DRX9000 spinal decompression system—a cutting-edge technology backed by research from Stanford, Johns Hopkins, Duke Medical Center, and Mayo Clinic. Unlike general traction or inversion tables, the DRX9000 uses precision-calibrated decompression to:

• Create negative pressure inside the spinal disc
• Retract herniated or bulging disc material
• Rehydrate the disc and encourage nutrient delivery
• Relieve pressure on pinched nerves

Why Passive + Active Care Delivers Better Results

Spinal decompression is powerful, but it works best when paired with active therapy. That’s why every patient plan includes both passive treatment (DRX9000) and active components such as:

• Core stability training
• Hip mobility and strength exercises
• Postural correction
• Movement retraining

This combination helps correct the problem, stabilize the spine, and prevent future flare-ups—delivering long-term results instead of short-term fixes.

What You Can Do at Home

While your recovery plan should be guided by a professional, here are a few things you can start doing right away:

• Gentle walking (5–15 minutes a few times a day) to promote blood flow and movement
• Avoid prolonged sitting—stand and stretch at least every 30 minutes
• Use a lumbar support cushion when driving or sitting
• Engage your core by drawing your belly button toward your spine during light daily activity
• Stay hydrated—your spinal discs need water to stay healthy

Avoid aggressive stretching or twisting movements if you're in pain, and never push through sharp or shooting pain.

Why Patients Trust Dr. Cassidy Boelk DC

With over 20 years of experience and more than 65,000 decompression sessions performed, Dr. Boelk is known as one of California’s most trusted experts in Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression. He also trains doctors from across the country through his Spinal Decompression Training Academy.

Having suffered his own disc injuries—including a broken back as a teenager—Dr. Boelk understands the physical and emotional toll of spinal conditions. That’s why he creates personalized care plans, based on clinical findings and functional needs—not cookie-cutter protocols.

Real Patient Testimonials

"I want to thank Dr. Boelk DC and his staff for treating me with my lower back pain. Prior to my treatment with Dr. Boelk, I had no life. I could not dress myself; I had a hard time driving. After his series of treatments, I am back to working out and training 5 to 6 days a week. No more pain medication!"
— Victor Almazan

"I found out about Dr. Boelk on the internet while searching for a doctor for my friend. I've always had back issues, so I decided to get an MRI. I now travel from El Centro four times a week because of the amazing results. I feel better and have recommended this treatment to my family and friends. Thank you!"
— Mercedes Bautista, El Centro, CA

"Dr. Boelk & his staff are by far the BEST at spinal decompression. I walked into his office unable to sit to do my job, 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."
— Erin T., San Diego, CA
