Degenerative Disc Disease Pain Relief That Lasts In Kearny Mesa, CA

If you’ve been diagnosed with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) and are tired of temporary relief that never lasts, you’re not alone—and you do have options. At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, we specialize in helping patients suffering from disc-related conditions like DDD find long-term, non-surgical relief using Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD).

What Is Degenerative Disc Disease?

Degenerative Disc Disease isn’t technically a disease but rather a progressive breakdown of the spinal discs due to aging, injury, or repetitive stress. Over time, the discs lose hydration and flexibility, which can lead to:

• Chronic low back or neck pain

• Radiating pain down the arms or legs

• Nerve compression

• Reduced mobility and quality of life

Many patients are told that nothing short of surgery will help—or that their pain is just something they’ll have to live with. That’s simply not true.

Why We Use Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD)

At our Kearny Mesa clinic, we exclusively use the FDA-cleared DRX9000 spinal decompression machines—widely considered the gold standard in non-surgical decompression. Backed by research from institutions like Stanford, Johns Hopkins, Mayo Clinic, and Duke, the DRX9000 is the most advanced technology available for decompressing spinal discs safely and effectively.

How NSSD Helps With DDD

Degenerative Disc Disease causes compression in the spine that reduces disc space, cuts off vital circulation, and leads to inflammation and nerve pain. NSSD works by gently and precisely separating the vertebrae, creating negative pressure within the discs. This process:

1. Reduces disc pressure and inflammation

2. Increases blood and nutrient flow

3. Creates the space for disc rehydration and healing

4. Decreases nerve compression and radiating symptoms

When applied correctly and consistently, this treatment gives your spine the environment it needs to heal naturally—without drugs or surgery.

Why Our Approach Is Different

Not all decompression clinics are the same. At our office in Kearny Mesa, we don’t just put you on a machine and hope for the best. Every protocol is custom-tailored to the patient’s specific condition, history, and response to care.

In fact, our founder Dr. Cassidy Boelk, DC—a Certified Spinal Decompression Doctor and Certified Pain-Free Performance Specialist—has personally performed over 65,000 decompression treatments and spent thousands of hours rehabbing both his own spine and those of his patients. He also trains other doctors in these techniques through the Spinal Decompression Training Academy, based right here in San Diego.

Patients drive and fly in from across the country and overseas—including Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Oregon, Montana, Alaska, the U.K., Mexico, and Spain—seeking out Dr. Boelk’s results-driven care.

Home Care Tips for DDD Relief

In addition to in-office treatment, here are a few things you can do at home to support your spine:

• Daily walking: 15–30 minutes can help improve circulation and joint motion.

• Core stabilization exercises: Building strength in the deep core muscles helps unload the spine.

• Use proper sitting posture: Avoid slouching, and support your lower back when sitting.

• Avoid forward bending with locked knees: Always hinge at the hips to protect your spine.

💬 What Our Patients Say – Full Stories, Real Results

“This care has been life-changing. I gave them a second chance, and it changed my life.”
_“At first, my results weren’t what I’d hoped for, and I left a review. Dr. Boelk personally reached out, apologized, and offered a plan to move forward. I returned, and everything was different—better. I completed all 12 sessions, restarted working out, and one treatment completely stopped a pain flare-up I had from overtraining.

I haven't needed Tylenol since. My neck pain and headaches are gone. The staff is kind and truly cares. Please give them a chance—it changed my life.”_
— Julianne E., San Diego

“Dr. Boelk and his team gave me my life back.”
_“I was in so much pain I couldn’t sit down. I had to lie down just to get through work. A few weeks into treatment, I was sitting comfortably again.

Dr. Boelk is different—he’s experienced back pain himself and truly cares. Every time I came in, I felt like the only patient there. That level of attention and empathy is rare. I highly recommend him.”_
— Erin T., San Diego

“No charge. No pressure. Just integrity.”
“I came in after a motocross injury with a neck fracture and was being pressured into surgery. Dr. Boelk reviewed my MRI, explained my options, and recommended I wait until I healed before starting treatment. He didn’t charge me and advised I seek a second opinion. That’s the kind of doctor he is. I’ll be back when I’m cleared.”
— Jan H., San Diego
