Lasting Back Pain Relief in San Diego, California

 

For many people in San Diego, back pain has become a constant, frustrating part of daily life — affecting work, sleep, and the simple activities that make life enjoyable. If you’ve tried chiropractic adjustments, stretching, medications, or physical therapy with only temporary relief, it’s time to experience what makes Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) with Dr. Cassidy Boelk, DC different.

 

At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, Dr. Boelk and his team specialize in helping patients find lasting relief from back pain by targeting the root cause — compressed spinal discs and irritated nerves — not just the symptoms.

 

Why So Many Patients Choose Dr. Boelk for Back Pain Relief

Patients consistently describe their experience with Dr. Boelk as personal, compassionate, and deeply effective. Every detail — from your evaluation to each decompression session — is directed by Dr. Boelk himself. No two treatment plans are ever the same, and no patient is ever placed on a preset machine setting without doctor oversight.

 

“Dr. Boelk & his staff are by far the BEST at spinal decompression. I walked into his office unable to sit to do my job, where I was having to lay each day, 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.

First of all, he has suffered from some severe back issues, so his empathy is very high. Secondly, he is extremely caring & genuinely wants to help people.

I’ve never worked with a doctor who has cared as much and made me feel like I was his only patient before. There would be four people there at the same time, and he still made me feel this way. I cannot thank him enough & cannot recommend him enough. He is an angel on earth.”
— Erin Turk, CA

 

Patients describe Dr. Boelk’s approach as a balance of clinical precision and genuine empathy — a combination that has drawn individuals from La Jolla, Del Mar, Carmel Valley, and far beyond.

 

From Alaska to San Diego for Lasting Relief

“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

What Causes Most Back Pain — And Why It Persists

Your spine’s discs act as cushions between each vertebra. Over time, or through injury, these discs can compress — losing height and hydration — which puts pressure on spinal nerves and causes pain, numbness, or tingling down the legs.

 

Traditional treatments often focus on surface symptoms. However, without restoring proper disc spacing and nutrient flow, the pain often returns.

That’s exactly what Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression does — it gently relieves pressure and pulls oxygen and nutrients back into the disc, allowing it to heal and rehydrate naturally.

 

Simple At-Home Steps for Relief

Here are a few proven ways to start easing back pain and supporting your spine at home:

1. Use Ice, Not Heat – Apply ice for 15–20 minutes per hour (with a shirt or cloth barrier) to calm inflammation.
2. Take Gentle Walks – 5–10 minute walks several times per day help increase circulation and reduce stiffness.
3. Stretch Hamstrings and Hips – Tight hips and hamstrings can worsen disc compression; light stretches can help restore motion.
4. Avoid Long Sitting – Take standing breaks every 30–45 minutes. Use lumbar support if you must sit for long periods.
5. Stay Hydrated – Spinal discs are mostly water; dehydration makes them more vulnerable to injury.

 

These steps support your recovery and prepare your spine for long-term healing when combined with professional decompression care.
