Lasting Degenerative Disc Disease Relief – Chula Vista, CA
Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) is one of the most common causes of chronic back and neck pain. For many people in Chula Vista, it begins with mild stiffness or soreness, only to worsen over time until even simple daily activities like walking, sitting, or standing for too long become painful. Too often, patients are told their only options are surgery or long-term pain medications. Fortunately, there is a proven non-surgical solution available just minutes away: lasting degenerative disc disease pain relief in Chula Vista, CA through advanced spinal decompression therapy.
At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, Dr. Cassidy Boelk, DC, has spent nearly 21 years helping patients avoid invasive procedures and reclaim their lives. As a Certified Spinal Decompression Doctor, Certified Pain-Free Performance Specialist, and Founder of the Spinal Decompression Training Academy, Dr. Boelk has personally performed over 75,000 spinal decompression treatments. His clinic houses 7 DRX9000 spinal decompression machines, the most advanced and researched decompression systems available, making it the largest known spinal decompression provider in California. Patients routinely travel from across the U.S., Mexico, the U.K., and Spain for this specialized care.
Why Spinal Decompression for DDD?
The DRX9000 system works by gently and precisely creating negative pressure inside damaged discs, which reduces pressure on nerves, restores hydration, and encourages natural healing. Unlike inversion tables or generic traction devices, the DRX9000 is FDA-cleared and designed specifically for spinal decompression.
This treatment has been shown to help patients with:
-
Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD)
-
Herniated or bulging discs
-
Sciatica and pinched nerves
-
Chronic back and neck pain
-
Failed back surgery syndrome (no metal present)
What You Can Do at Home Right Now
While spinal decompression offers targeted relief that can’t be duplicated at home, there are steps you can take starting today to reduce stress on your spine and support your recovery:
-
Stay Active – Light walking helps keep circulation flowing to your discs and reduces stiffness.
-
Gentle Stretching – Focus on hamstrings, hip flexors, and low-back mobility to ease pressure.
-
Core Engagement – Simple exercises like bird-dogs, bridges, or planks (done carefully) support the spine and reduce disc strain.
-
Use Heat or Ice Wisely – Ice for acute flare-ups, heat for stiffness.
-
Posture Awareness – Avoid slouching when sitting; keep your screen at eye level.
-
Change Positions Often – Don’t sit or stand in one place for more than 30–40 minutes at a time.
These self-care steps don’t replace treatment, but they set the foundation for better long-term results — and patients who do them consistently often see faster, more lasting progress when paired with decompression therapy.
Proof from Real Patients
“I had really bad back problems to the point I couldn’t sleep, also had pain radiating along the sciatic nerve which ran down one leg from the lower back—caused by an accident.
I came in and talked to Dr. Cassidy about my back problems. He evaluated me and mentioned I was a good candidate for this treatment. After the first 2 decompression sessions my sciatic pain was gone and we were able to work on the root of the problem. I did a total of 24 sessions, after which I was able to start rehabilitation training to strengthen my core.
The office is super nice and the staff’s customer service is above and beyond. Back and neck issues are horrible to live with—trust me, I know firsthand. I gained weight, took pain killers, went into depression, and had major anxiety. I’m over it now—feeling better, walking, sleeping well, and starting to have a better social life as well.
The experience for me has been nothing but excellent. Dr. Cassidy Boelk is hands down amazing—super glad I came here.”
