Degenerative Disc Disease Treatment – Mira Mesa, CA
Lasting Relief Without Surgery Using the DRX9000**
Degenerative Disc Disease doesn’t just cause back pain — it changes your daily life. The stiffness when getting out of bed, pain when sitting longer than a few minutes, sharp jolts when bending, and constant worry about the next flare-up can make even simple tasks difficult to enjoy.
For thousands of patients throughout Mira Mesa and greater San Diego, Dr. Cassidy Boelk, DC has become the trusted expert for one reason:
his patients get lasting relief without surgery.
“As a firefighter with constant lower back and sciatica pain, I was on track for multiple shots and medications. With decompression, I’m now down to zero pain. The results have been life-changing.” – Joshua T., San Diego
“There is not enough room to explain the relief Dr. Boelk has brought to me and my entire family. After a year of sciatic pain, I couldn’t play hockey, golf, or surf. Nothing gave me lasting relief until I met Dr. Boelk. I tell people regularly — he saved my life.” – Jayson Yavorsky, San Diego
With more than 21 years specializing exclusively in Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression and over 75,000 decompression sessions performed, Dr. Boelk has helped people regain mobility, reduce pain, and finally return to the activities they love — even after years of frustration and failed treatments elsewhere.
🧠 Why Degenerative Disc Disease Keeps Coming Back
If you’ve searched “degenerative disc disease won’t heal”, “DDD Mira Mesa,” or “how to fix degenerative disc disease without surgery,”there’s a reason — most treatments don’t address the true source.
As discs degenerate, they:
- Lose hydration and height
- Collapse under spinal load
- Irritate nearby nerves
- Increase inflammation
- Create muscle guarding and spasms
- Cause pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility
Massage, adjustments, medication, and injections may reduce pain temporarily.
But if disc pressure isn’t reduced, the problem continues.
That’s exactly why True Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression is different — it treats DDD at the disc level.
💡 How True Spinal Decompression Helps Degenerative Discs Heal
Dr. Boelk uses the FDA-cleared DRX9000 True Spinal Decompression System, the most advanced and research-supported decompression technology available. It’s the same system featured in studies performed at:
- Stanford University
- Johns Hopkins University
- Duke Medical Center
- Mayo Clinic
Unlike traction or inversion tables, the DRX9000 creates a precise and measurable negative pressure inside the affected disc.
This process:
- Reduces disc bulging
- Relieves nerve compression
- Restores disc hydration
- Improves flexibility and movement
- Reduces inflammation
- Helps prevent recurrent flare-ups
This is a natural healing process — no medications, injections, or surgery required.
⭐ Real Patient Success Stories
“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
“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
Patients often travel from Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Oregon, Montana, Alaska, Mexico, Spain, and the U.K. when they cannot find relief elsewhere. Many arrive doubtful — and leave finally feeling hopeful and functional again.
⚙️ Customized Treatment Plans — Never One-Size-Fits-All
Degenerative Disc Disease varies from person to person, which is why generic decompression or “pull tables” are rarely effective.
At his clinic, Dr. Boelk personally:
- Reviews each MRI
- Determines the exact disc levels involved
- Sets individualized decompression angles, timing, and pull patterns
- Adjusts settings as the disc begins to heal
- Integrates gentle active therapy to stabilize the spine
This is the same system he used to rehabilitate his own spine — including his stable Grade-2 L5–S1 spondylolisthesisand multiple disc injuries — without surgery.
Patients describe his approach as detailed, caring, and extremely precisebecause he understands spinal pain both personally and professionally.
