Fast Pinched Nerve Relief Without Surgery – Kearny Mesa, CA

Advanced DRX9000™ Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Near You
The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego (Kearny Mesa)

Pinched nerve pain can take over your life quickly — whether it’s a sharp, burning sensation traveling into the arm or leg, numbness while sitting, or shooting pain with simple movements. Many people in Kearny Mesa come to us after trying physical therapy, chiropractic adjustments, massage, and injections without lasting relief.

Most pinched nerves come from disc bulges, herniated discs, or foraminal stenosis, which reduce the space around the nerve and cause intense irritation. The real solution requires opening that space back up — safely and gently.

At our Kearny Mesa clinic, Dr. Cassidy Boelk DC specializes exclusively in Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) using the advanced DRX9000™ system, the most researched and highly effective decompression technology available. With nearly 21 years of experience and over 75,000 decompression treatments performed, Dr. Boelk is one of the most experienced spinal decompression doctors in California.

How DRX9000™ Decompression Helps Pinched Nerves

The DRX9000 gently reduces pressure inside the spinal discs, allowing bulging or herniated material to retract off the nerve. This helps restore disc height, calm inflammation, and relieve nerve pressure.

Patients often notice:

This technology is far more precise than traction or inversion, and is used by clinics associated with Stanford, Duke, Johns Hopkins, and Mayo Clinic research.

Real Patient Results

⭐ Cliff G.

“Dr Boelk saved my life! I was diagnosed with Multi-level Degenerative Back Disease. The medical back specialists recommended fusing my Cervical Spine and performing a Discectomy on my bulging disc in lower spine. They insisted on scraping Discs - C5: C6: C7 insert cadaver bones and secure my Cervical Vertebrates with a Titanium Plate & Screws.

Dr Boelk treatments on the DRX 9000 & 9000C have resulted in me avoiding any evasive operations and restored the Health of my Cervical and Lumbar Discs. I am now PAIN FREE!

I returned to my Back Surgeons and presented them with new MRI's. They concluded I didn't need any operation and wanted to know what I did. When I told them I have received treatments on the DRX 9000 they were Not Supportive and were Not Happy!

I have been extremely satisfied with my results and because of my Multi-Level Cervical and Lumbar deterioration condition, I continually receive periodic DRX 9000 treatments from Dr. Boelk to help Maintain my Pain Free Status.

Dr Boelk is one of the most Honest, Informed and Caring Spinal Doctors and human beings I have ever met. His office has an amazing caring and kind staff. I owe him and his staff a tremendous amount of Respect, Gratitude & Thanks for what they have achieved with my DRX treatments in eliminating all my Back Pain!”

Summary

Cliff’s surgeons recommended multiple operations, including cervical fusion. Decompression helped him avoid all of it and return to being pain-free — a powerful example for severe nerve compression cases.

⭐ Amanda S., San Diego, CA

“This review is long overdue. I came here initially with skepticism but also hope—they were my last resort for ongoing back issues after a whiplash injury in 2022. I had tried just about everything: sports massages, chiropractors, cupping, acupuncture—nothing gave me lasting relief.

That changed when I started spinal decompression therapy here. From the beginning, they were upfront and let me know it might take 12 or more sessions to feel significant relief. But during one visit, the doctor asked how I was doing, and I suddenly realized—I hadn’t felt pain in a while. That moment came after just six sessions.

I’m now on a maintenance program and come in as needed. While I still experience occasional flare-ups, the relief this treatment provides has been life-changing. Honestly, I’d pay even more for the results I’ve experienced.”

Summary

Amanda had been through nearly every treatment option before decompression finally gave her consistent relief — a common experience for our Kearny Mesa patients.

⭐ Calder Pearce, San Diego, CA

“Dr. Boelk and his team are the best in the business! I have had lower back problems for over 5 years and been to 6 other doctors seeking options other than surgery. I came in early January not able to bend and walking with a limp. By February I was able to bend again with minimal pain and by March I am now able to bend without any pain and am able to walk normally.

I am EXTREMELY happy I did not have surgery and found Dr. Boelk. Trust him and the process and he will get you feeling better. He also said from the beginning that if at any stage in the process he felt like progress wasn't happening he would let me know which was not the case with other specialists I have seen in the past so I appreciate that.”

Summary

Calder’s long-term nerve symptoms improved quickly once decompression reduced pressure on the irritated nerve. His story reflects how effective targeted decompression can be in severe cases.

⭐ Marlo Surovsky, San Diego, CA

“I was so tired of being in pain and felt I had tried all resources. After two unsuccessful cortisone shots in my back recommended by my primary care doctor, I began asking people about their experience with back surgery. Even my primary care doctor said it might have to be considered.

Sometimes Google is magic...I began to explore other options and found useful information on spinal decompression.

After the consultation where I never felt rushed and I FELT HEARD I decided to commit to a treatment plan.

I am now pain free after 18 treatments. I’m finally feeling zero discomfort. No meds. Just committing to the recommended plan.”

Summary

Marlo was close to surgery before decompression helped her become completely pain-free. Many Kearny Mesa patients come in at this exact stage — discouraged but hopeful.
