Fast Degenerative Disc Disease Back Pain Relief in San Diego, CA

If you’ve been diagnosed with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) and are dealing with chronic neck or back pain, limited movement, or nerve pain that’s impacting your life — you are not alone. And more importantly, there is a proven, non-surgical solution available right here in San Diego.

At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, we specialize in helping patients just like you find fast, effective, and lasting relief — often when nothing else has worked.

What Is Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD)?

Despite the name, Degenerative Disc Disease isn’t technically a disease. It’s a condition that occurs when the spinal discs — the cushions between your vertebrae — begin to break down due to wear and tear, age, or injury.

Over time, the discs lose hydration, height, and flexibility. This can lead to:

• Chronic neck or back pain

• Inflammation and muscle tension

• Nerve compression, numbness, or tingling in the arms or legs

• Limited movement or pain with sitting, standing, or walking

Why Do We Get It?

DDD can develop from:

• Natural aging and disc dehydration

• Repetitive stress or improper lifting mechanics

• Poor posture or prolonged sitting

• Trauma, such as auto accidents or sports injuries

• Genetic predisposition

What You Can Do On Your Own

There are several steps you can take right away to reduce symptoms and support your spine:

✅ Stay mobile with gentle exercise like walking or swimming
✅ Drink more water to support disc hydration
✅ Avoid prolonged sitting and poor posture
✅ Strengthen your core and hips (we’ll guide you on this)
✅ Use ice or heat for pain and inflammation
✅ Avoid high-impact activities until disc pressure is reduced

How Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) Helps

At our clinic, we use the FDA-cleared DRX 9000 spinal decompression system, the most advanced technology available for disc recovery. Backed by research from Stanford, Johns Hopkins, Mayo Clinic, and Duke Medical Center, this therapy gently stretches the spine, creating negative pressure within the disc.

This allows:

• Bulging or herniated disc material to retract off the nerve

• Increased blood and nutrient flow back into the disc

• Improved disc height, hydration, and healing

• Lasting pain relief without surgery or medications

It’s non-invasive, comfortable, and incredibly effective — and we’ve seen it help thousands of patients avoid surgery and reclaim their lives.
