Fast Non-Surgical Spinal Stenosis Pain Relief in San Diego, CA
If you're dealing with chronic pain, numbness, or weakness caused by spinal stenosis, and you've been told that surgery is your only option, there's good news—it’s not the only solution. In fact, many people can achieve long-term, non-surgical relief with the right approach.
At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, Dr. Cassidy Boelk DC has been helping patients avoid spinal surgery for over 20 years by addressing the root causes of spinal stenosis with highly specialized and targeted treatment protocols. Through a combination of Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD), corrective exercises, and biomechanics-based movement programs, patients are often able to regain function, eliminate pain, and get back to doing the things they love.
What Is Spinal Stenosis?
Spinal stenosis is the narrowing of the spinal canal, which can lead to compression of the spinal cord or spinal nerves. This pressure often results in:
- Radiating leg or arm pain
- Numbness, tingling, or weakness
- Difficulty standing or walking
- Pain that improves when sitting or leaning forward
It’s most commonly caused by degenerative disc disease, herniated discs, arthritis, or ligament thickening—and it often worsens over time without proper treatment.
Does Everyone With Spinal Stenosis Need Surgery?
No. While there are cases that require surgical intervention—especially those involving severe neurological deficits—most people can be successfully treated without surgery.
Through customized non-surgical treatment protocols, patients often experience dramatic pain reduction, improved mobility, and increased strength—without the risks, downtime, or complications of surgical procedures.
Why Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Works
Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) is a gentle, highly effective therapy that targets the exact cause of spinal stenosis—nerve and disc compression.
Using the FDA-cleared DRX 9000 system, spinal decompression creates a precise and controlled unloading of the spine. This reduces pressure on the spinal discs and nerves, promoting:
- Increased disc hydration and height
- Improved spinal canal space
- Reduced nerve inflammation
- Enhanced blood flow and oxygen delivery
Research from institutions like Stanford University, Johns Hopkins, Duke Medical Center, and Mayo Clinic has shown significant success with this type of therapy for disc-related conditions.
More Than Just Passive Therapy: Why Active Rehab Is Essential
Dr. Boelk combines NSSD with active therapy and spinal stability trainingto create lasting results. His protocols include:
- Restoring proper spinal biomechanics
- Improving spinal mobility and flexibility
- Strengthening core and postural muscles
- Teaching patients how to move properly throughout their day
This combination of passive and active care ensures that once nerve pressure is relieved, the body can support and maintain the correction long-term.
