“I DID NOT WANT SURGERY”

“My name is Ira Smith. I live in Las Vegas and found out about Dr. Boelk’s program here in San Diego and decided to start treatments with him.

I’ve had lower back problems since I was very young.

I had aggravated my lower back pretty bad again and usually I could do exercises, chiropractic treatment, rest and this time those things would no longer relieve my pain.

I would get the sciatic pain shooting down into my leg and foot and would be pretty bad.

I found out thru my MRI’s that Dr. Boelk went over with me that I had 5 protruding discs.

I did not want to get surgery as I have heard and seen that they don’t always work very well at all.

I am 2/3 of the way done with Dr. Boelk’s program and I have zero pain.

I pretty much go thru my activities with no pain.

The treatment has relieved the pain and is not painful at all.

This is the place to start.”

— Ira Smith, Las Vegas, Nevada

to seek Dr. Boelk’s expertise in:

  • Failed Conservative Treatment Cases
  • Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression

WHAT CAUSES FOOT NUMBNESS?

Foot numbness is commonly associated with:

  • irritated spinal nerves
  • disc herniations
  • inflammation
  • nerve compression
  • spinal instability
  • movement dysfunction

Depending on severity, patients may experience:
✔ Tingling Into The Toes
✔ Burning Pain
✔ Electrical Pain
✔ Foot Numbness
✔ Calf Tightness
✔ Weakness
✔ Pain Sitting
✔ Pain Driving
✔ Nighttime Symptoms

This is one reason Dr. Boelk evaluates:

  • posture
  • sitting tolerance
  • spinal stability
  • movement mechanics
  • neurological findings
  • MRI findings if available

rather than simply applying generalized treatment.


“I COULDN’T PLAY THE SPORTS I LOVED”

“There is not enough room to explain the relief Dr. Boelk has brought to me and my entire family.

I found him after a year of sciatic pain.

Couldn't play the sports I loved, no hockey, golf or surfing.

The pain shooting from my hip to my left foot was to the point of unbearable.

I had been visiting chiropractors since I was 18, temporary relief, but nothing consistent.

Acupuncture helped a bit, physical therapy was unmanageable.

I couldn't get a solid night sleep and didn't care to go on.

But Then I met the Dr!

I tell people regularly, he saved my life.”

— Jayson Yavorsky, San Diego, CA


THIS IS NOT GENERIC TRACTION

Many patients eventually discover:

NOT ALL SPINAL DECOMPRESSION IS THE SAME.

Differences may involve:

  • machine quality
  • provider experience
  • treatment progression
  • pull consistency
  • patient positioning
  • protocol customization

At our office, Dr. Boelk exclusively uses:

DRX9000 TRUE SPINAL DECOMPRESSION SYSTEMS

Treatment protocols are highly individualized based on:
✔ MRI Findings
✔ Symptom Severity
✔ Disc Involvement
✔ Nerve Irritation
✔ Sitting Tolerance
✔ Movement Patterns
✔ Patient Response

Research involving spinal decompression has been associated with:

  • Stanford University
  • Johns Hopkins University
  • Duke Medical Center
  • Mayo Clinic

NOT EVERY PATIENT IS A CANDIDATE

One of the biggest misconceptions online is:

“Foot Numbness Always Means Sciatica.”

That is simply NOT true.

Some patients may require:

  • additional imaging
  • surgical consultation
  • different conservative treatment
  • co-management
  • stabilization first

depending on:

  • instability
  • neurological findings
  • structural damage
  • progressive weakness
  • severity of compression

Dr. Boelk focuses heavily on:
✔ Honest Recommendations
✔ Proper Patient Selection
✔ Realistic Expectations
✔ Individualized Treatment Planning

rather than simply recommending treatment to everyone.


“HE RECOMMENDED ANOTHER NEUROSURGEON”

“I decided to see Dr. Boelk after a pretty gnarly motocoss neck injury.

At the Hospital I was at, I felt I was getting pressured into a surgery which I refused.

Dr. Boelk is a compassionate individual who truly cares about his patients.

He looked at my MRI images, explained what he saw and potential routes for recovery.

He could not treat me as I have to wait until the fracture in my neck heals, but the level of professionalism, compassion, caring and knowledge displayed by him was exceptional.

He also recommended to seek an additional opinion form another neurosurgeon.

My experience was that he really cares and he's not someone who would take advantage of the situation someone's in.”

— Jan H., San Marcos, CA


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

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.


“IT REALLY MAKES A DIFFERENCE”

“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
