Fast Non-Surgical Sciatica Pain Relief – La Jolla, CA

Fast Non-Surgical Sciatica Pain Relief – La Jolla, CA

 

When sciatica strikes, it can feel like life stops. The deep ache in your lower back, the shooting pain down your leg, the numbness and tingling that make it impossible to focus—it can turn everyday moments into exhausting challenges.

For many La Jolla residents, sciatica is the result of disc compression—most often from a bulging or herniated disc. When that disc presses on the sciatic nerve, pain can radiate from your lower back through your hip, down your leg, and even into your foot.

 

While surgery may be required in a small number of severe cases, the vast majority of sciatica sufferers can find relief without it—when the right treatment is applied.

 

Why Surgery Often Isn’t the Best First Step

Surgery can be life-changing in certain situations, such as severe neurological loss or spinal instability. But for most people, it carries real risks: long recovery times, scar tissue formation, and in many cases, only temporary relief.

Many of our patients have been told surgery was their only option—yet today, they’re living without sciatica pain because they discovered Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) at our clinic.

 

Why NSSD Works Where Other Treatments Fail

NSSD, performed on the FDA-cleared DRX9000 system, is a precise, research-supported treatment designed to gently create negative pressure within the spinal disc. This can draw herniated material back into place, reduce nerve compression, and restore the nutrient flow discs need to heal.

 

But here’s the critical detail: not all decompression is the same. Every week, we meet patients who thought they were getting decompression elsewhere, only to find out they were actually getting generic traction—no customized protocols, no progression, and no active therapy to stabilize the spine.

"After suffering from debilitating sciatica for months, I found relief with Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression at Dr. Boelk's clinic. I was able to run my 50k race after we fixed me up!"  Pamela, San Diego

 

Why Patients in La Jolla Choose Dr. Boelk

Dr. Cassidy Boelk DC is a Certified Spinal Decompression Doctor and Certified Pain-Free Performance Specialistwith nearly two decades of experience and over 65,000 decompression treatments performed. He has personally recovered from serious spinal injuries, including a broken back, and brings that same determination to every patient case.

 

His protocols are trusted by patients who travel from Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Oregon, Montana, Alaska, the UK, Spain, and Mexico—many of whom were told elsewhere that nothing more could be done.

 

"Dr. Boelk & his staff are by far the BEST at spinal decompression. I walked into his office unable to sit to do my job, 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."  Erin T., San Diego

 

Built on Precision, Backed by Proof

In our La Jolla-serving clinic:

 

"Have had constant lower back and sciatica pain for over 8 plus months, no pills helped and on track for multiple shots but with the treatment given I have found relief and am down to zero pain… it’s totally worth looking into what Dr. Boelk can do for you."  Joshua T., San Diego

 

Our Selective Acceptance Policy

We don’t take every case. We only accept patients we truly believe we can help—because your time, energy, and resources are too valuable to waste. If we determine you’re not a candidate, we’ll refer you to the right specialist immediately.

Regardless of referral source—whether from neurologists, orthopedic surgeons, chiropractors, physical therapists, or massage therapists—patients are seen on a first-come, first-served basis so Dr. Boelk can dedicate the time needed to fully evaluate your case.

 

Why You Should Act Now

The longer a nerve remains compressed, the greater the risk of long-term damage. Waiting can mean a longer road to recovery—or results that aren’t as complete as they could have been. Our schedule fills quickly, and openings are limited to ensure every patient gets the attention they need.

 

"The decompression treatments, exercises, and diet adjustments Dr. Boelk recommended have so diminished my back pain that I can sleep again. Chiropractic adjustments did not help my lower back. Decompression did." Steve R., San Diego

If sciatica has been holding you back from the life you love, you have an opportunity today to change that. Your no-charge consultation is your chance to find out if NSSD can work for you—no guessing, no risk, just clear answers and a personalized plan.
