Disc Injury Clinic San Diego

 

 
Looking for a disc injury clinic San Diego? We can help and have help and have been helping patients for the past 18 years get out of pain and back to enjoying life once again. Disc injuries need to be handled with care and precision and need to be individualized for each person. The cause of the disc injury needs to be addressed and this is a problem as most therapies do not address the cause but rather they are focused on trying to relieve symptoms only. Now this is not bad and natural to want to get someone out of pain, but it doesn't work well with disc injuries.
 
Let's look at why disc injuries occur in the first place and what we need to do to properly address them.
 
Pain from a disc herniation comes from disc compression. When a disc gets compressed, it means the bones in the spine have compressed down and essentially “squished” the spinal discs. The disc then presses upon the spinal nerves. The nerves then cause the pain.

 

Until the compression is addressed, pain will remain. The pain is typically not the issue and or reason why people come to see us to get relief  and avoid surgery. The reason they come to see us is how it is affecting their lioness. Missed exercise, workouts, sports events, time with friends and family, lost intimacy, lost income from work and general loss of joy of life with the high levels of pain.

 

This is why we have been specializing in NSSD, Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression for the past 18 years. We specializes in this treatment for a few specific reasons:

 

It plain works. Researched and proven highly effective by Johns Hopkins University, Stanford University, Duke Medical Center and Mayo Clinic among others.
 

Logically, it makes complete sense. If the pain is coming from compression, then to solve the pain, we need to decompress the tissues in order to get pain relief and resolve the issue.
 
Spinal decompression therapy is a painless, non-surgical treatment designed to reduce and even eliminate back pain, neck pain, sciatica and radiating arm pain. This modern treatment has shown a high success rate and helps patients avoid back surgeries they would have otherwise needed.
 
Clinical studies have shown spinal decompression to be effective in treating a number of conditions. These include pain associated with bulging and herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, sciatica, and even relapse or failed back surgery. The treatment enables most patients to return to pain-free, active lifestyles.

Neck Pain
Herniated Discs
Slipped Discs
Pinched Nerves
Disc Bulges
Degenerative Disc Disease
Sciatica
Spinal Stenosis

With spinal decompression therapy, all motion is computer-controlled to provide gentle treatment of injured spinal discs. Decompression techniques separate slowly and cycle between brief moments of pulling and relaxing. As a result, the entire treatment remains pain-free. High success rates with spinal decompression therapy lead many to prefer it to invasive back surgery, spinal injections and pain medications.

"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 & 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 4 people there at the same time, and he still made me feel this way. I guess I just cannot thank him enough & cannot recommend him enough. He is an angel on earth. If you visit him, please listen to him & follow his instructions. He knows what's best for you. " - Erin T
 
Rated the #1 Spinal Decompression office in San Diego for many reasons. Here is a quick guide to finding the best office when searching for Spinal Decompression:
 
1. Does the office specialize In Spinal Decompression or is it just one of many multiple treatments they offer? We have seen many patients come from other offices who said they are specialists and experts in spinal decompression but only treat 3 or 4 patients a day on decompression.
 
2. Is the doctor or staff actually getting the patients on the treatments? Spinal Decompression is a specialized skill and requires daily decision making and protocols vary from person to person, it is not a one size fits all approach. Many patients come from different offices and inform us they were getting decompression but it was done by the staff and many times they are in pain when on the tables. The treatments should not be painful but feel good.
 
3. Is the doctor Certified? There are many doctors who are utilizing spinal decompression who are not certified. It is best to see someone who took the time and learned the process and is certified.
 
4. Do they have a good reputation and reviews that report the doctor and office and staff are looking out for the patient and there is a common theme of the doctor caring and wanting the best for their patients?
 
5. Experience? How long has the office been utilizing spinal decompression? How many sessions have they performed? You want to see someone who has a lot of experience and knowledge in their field when looking for spinal decompression offices.

"I came in with extreme back pain, resulting in days where it was difficult to get out of bed.  There were moments where I would be walking and then my back would lock up.  I thought it was something I have dealt with in the past but this lasts the entire month of July.  I finally dedicated myself to finding the long term solution.  

 

‘I came to Dr. Boelk unsure about the process, but after he identified exactly what my ailment was, I felt confident that this was the long term solution I was looking for. I instantly felt better and Dr. Boelk kept encouraging me to trust the process and understand it will take time to feel 100%.  I am now pain free and honestly feel stronger, even a little taller.   I highly recommend you visit Dr. Boelk." - Ming T.

 

"I highly recommend Dr.Boelk to everyone who has issues with their back and neck. After 2 months of treatment I am feeling a considerable difference. Dr. Boelk's skills and experience are incredible.

I am very grateful to Dr.Boelk for his knowledgeable and professional treatment." - Olga M.
