Lasting Sciatica Pain Relief Without Surgery in Kearny Mesa, CA

If you're dealing with severe sciatica pain in Kearny Mesa, CA and want to avoid surgery, you're not alone. Sciatica can be excruciating and limit your ability to sit, sleep, work, or simply enjoy life. At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, we specialize in helping people just like you find lasting relief through proven non-surgical methods.

What Causes Sciatica?

Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve is compressed or irritated, most commonly from herniated or bulging discs in the lower back. This pressure can cause sharp, burning pain that radiates from the lower back down one or both legs, often accompanied by numbness or tingling. Sitting, bending, or even sleeping can become difficult.

How Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) Helps

At our Kearny Mesa location, we exclusively use the DRX9000—the most researched, FDA-cleared spinal decompression system available. Supported by research from Stanford University, Johns Hopkins, Duke Medical Center, and the Mayo Clinic, the DRX9000 gently and precisely stretches the spine, creating negative pressure inside the discs.

This allows bulging or herniated disc material to retract and relieves pressure on the sciatic nerve, providing natural pain relief without drugs or surgery.

Why We Use the DRX9000 Only

Unlike general traction or inversion tables, the DRX9000 provides computerized, highly controlled decompression tailored to each patient. It’s the gold standard for spinal decompression treatment and delivers superior outcomes when paired with our full-body rehabilitation protocols. With over 65,000 decompression sessions performed, we’ve seen firsthand how effective this technology is for our patients.

Home Care Tips for Sciatica Relief

While in-office care is essential, here are some helpful things you can do at home:

• Avoid prolonged sitting: Get up every 20–30 minutes to relieve pressure on the nerve.

• Gentle stretching: Focus on hamstrings and piriformis muscles to ease tension.

• Ice therapy: Apply an ice pack to the lower back for 15–20 minutes to calm inflammation.

• Strengthen your core: Stabilizing your spine helps reduce future flare-ups.

Real Testimonials from Real Patients

"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 & 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."
— Eren Turk

"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."
— Calder Pearce

"I want to thank Dr. Boelk DC and his staff for treating me with my lower back pain. Prior to my treatment with Dr. Boelk, I had no life. I could not dress myself; I had a hard time driving. Also, I had a hard time walking, standing and sitting. After his series of treatments, I am back to working out and training 5 to 6 days a week. No more pain medication for pain!"
