Lasting Pain Relief for Sciatica In Kearny Mesa, CA

Lasting Pain Relief for Sciatica In Kearny Mesa, CA

Living with sciatica can be frustrating, limiting, and downright painful. That radiating leg pain, often accompanied by numbness or burning, is typically caused by pressure on the sciatic nerve—and in most cases, that pressure stems from spinal disc issues. At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, located just minutes from the heart of Kearny Mesa, we help patients get real, lasting relief—without surgery or endless medications.

Understanding Sciatica – What’s Really Causing the Pain?

Sciatica isn’t the actual condition—it’s the symptom of something deeper going on. And for many people, that “something” is a compressed or damaged spinal disc.

Whether it’s a disc bulge, herniated disc, or degenerative disc disease, these disc problems can press directly onto the nerve roots that form the sciatic nerve. This leads to symptoms like:

Unfortunately, many treatments only focus on temporarily reducing the pain, not actually solving the root problem—the compressed disc.

Why Thoughtful Treatment Is Critical

Not all sciatica cases are the same, so the approach shouldn’t be either. Some clinics offer cookie-cutter programs or rush patients into injections and surgery. But lasting relief only comes from addressing the cause and rebuilding proper spinal health.

An effective sciatica recovery program should NOT rely on:

Instead, it must include:

How Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) Can Help

We specialize in Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) using the DRX9000 system, which is the most advanced and researched decompression technology available. Clinical studies from top institutions like Stanford, Johns Hopkins, Mayo Clinic, and Duke Medical Center have validated the effectiveness of this FDA-cleared system.

By gently pulling and relaxing the spine at precise intervals, the DRX9000 helps relieve pressure within the spinal disc, allowing it to rehydrate and begin to heal—while easing pressure off the sciatic nerve.

This is often the missing link for patients who’ve tried everything else without success.

A Whole-Body, Results-Driven Approach

While NSSD is a powerful therapy, it is not enough on its own. That’s why Dr. Boelk combines it with a full, strategic care plan that includes:

This integrated approach is designed not only to relieve your current pain, but also to prevent it from coming back.

“Dr. Boelk and His Team Are the Best in the Business”


“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.”

“I was so tired of being in pain and felt I had tried all resources. After two unsuccessful cortisone shots in my back (cash out of pocket) recommended by my primary care doctor who assured me that would do the trick, 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 many useful pieces of information on spinal decompression. It is not a quick fix. Healing takes time and patience. I am so grateful I found Dr. Boelk and staff at the Spinal Decompression and Chiropractic Center. Of course, his 5-star reviews intrigued me (and he deserves every one of those 5-star reviews).

After a 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 plan to continue a maintenance routine as part of my self-care goals moving forward and I'm finally feeling zero discomfort.
No meds. Just committing to Dr. Boelk's recommended treatment plan.”

“I travel from the UK to see Dr. Boelk and his wonderful team. I have 3 bulging discs and one is touching the nerve. I have the spinal decompression treatment and it really helps keep me in my active life. I will not go to anyone else for back treatment—this place is number one and they genuinely care about their patients.”

“The care I received at Dr. Boelk’s office was so wonderful. I went from having to lay down for several hours a day to being able to live my life normally and even began working up my exercise capacity. I always felt cared about, and there was a lot of feedback. The exercise and information Dr. Boelk provides is so critical to maintaining positive results and pain reduction with increased mobility and freedom.

All the staff are so caring, and it’s one of the best decisions I made for my back!”
