Lasting Sciatica Pain Relief in San Diego, CA 

Here's What Actually Works

 

If you're living with sciatica, you know how exhausting it can be. The shooting pain, numbness, and burning discomfort that runs down your leg can disrupt your sleep, work, and quality of life. The good news? You don’t have to rely on pain medications, injections, or surgery to find lasting relief.

At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, Dr. Cassidy Boelk DC, a Certified Spinal Decompression Doctor, has helped thousands of patients get back to living pain-free—without surgery or drugs—using a breakthrough treatment called Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD).

 

Why NSSD Works for Long-Term Sciatica Relief

Sciatica is almost always caused by compression of the sciatic nerve, typically from a herniated disc, bulging disc, spinal stenosis, or degenerative disc disease. Most treatments—including pain medications, injections, and chiropractic adjustments—only treat the symptoms, not the source of the problem.

Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) works differently. It targets the root cause of sciatica by gently and precisely decompressing the spinal discs, allowing the pressure on the sciatic nerve to be released.

How NSSD Helps:

• Reduces nerve compression by creating negative pressure inside the disc
• Pulls herniated or bulging disc material back into place
• Restores proper disc height and hydration
• Improves blood flow and oxygen to the area, promoting healing
• Relieves pain, numbness, and tingling naturally

It’s comfortable, relaxing, and patients often fall asleep during treatment. There are no side effects, no medications, and no needles—just relief.

 

Backed by World-Renowned Research

The DRX 9000 spinal decompression machines used at Dr. Boelk’s office are the most advanced and researched decompression systems available. They’ve been studied and validated by top institutions, including:

• Johns Hopkins University
• Stanford University
• Duke Medical Center
• Mayo Clinic

These studies confirm that true spinal decompression—when performed correctly—can significantly relieve disc-related conditions, including sciatica.

 

Not All Spinal Decompression Is the Same

Here’s where it gets critical: not all decompression therapy is created equal.
Many clinics offer “decompression” that is nothing more than basic traction or outdated equipment. Unfortunately, this ineffective or generic approach can waste time and money—and lead to frustration.

What Makes Our Approach Different?

At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego:

• We use only the DRX 9000 machines—the gold standard in decompression therapy.
• Dr. Cassidy Boelk DC customizes the treatment with very specific, patient-tailored settings for each individual’s body type, disc level, and condition.
• Each session is part of a complete care plan that combines both passive therapy (decompression) and active therapy (rehabilitation exercises).

This combination of precision decompression and strengthening therapy is key to achieving long-lasting results, not just temporary relief.

 

Why Active Therapy Matters for Lasting Results

Passive therapy like NSSD is essential for healing the disc and removing nerve pressure—but if you stop there, the pain may return. That’s why active therapy is just as important.

Dr. Boelk designs specific rehab exercises to:

• Strengthen the core, glutes, and hips
• Correct muscle imbalances and posture issues
• Improve stability and spinal alignment
• Reduce the chances of re-injury

Combining these two strategies gives your spine the support it needs to stay pain-free—even after treatment ends.
