Non-Surgical Disc Herniation Pain Relief In San Diego, CA

Non-Surgical Disc Herniation Pain Relief In San Diego, CA

 
If you are dealing with disc herniation pain then you know how frustrating it can be. Pain that prevents you from enjoying life, being able to get comfortable sitting, sleeping, standing. Work, family, social and intimate life surfers. Gym and workout and sports come to a stand still. It's no fun to say the least. What do you do? Who do you see, how do you decide?
 
Let's discuss what options may make the most sense. When dealing with disc, we want to match the treatment to the source of the pain. Therefore if we are focusing on treating the muscles and or joints then the discs are not really going to be treated and the underlying cause of the pain will remain even if we see a decrease in the pain levels.
 
This is why therapies such as massage therapy, acupuncture, acupressure, physical therapy, chiropractic adjustment, pain medications, spinal injections will not typically provide much pain relief if any with disc herniations.
 
What happens with disc herniations?
 
Causes of Disc Herniations:

Spinal Compression: Disc herniations often occur due to prolonged spinal compression. Factors like poor posture, heavy lifting, or repetitive motions can increase pressure on the discs, causing them to bulge or rupture.

Aging Process: As we age, the discs in our spine can degenerate, becoming less flexible and more susceptible to damage. This natural aging process can contribute to disc herniations.

Trauma or Injury: Accidents, sports injuries, or sudden trauma can also lead to disc herniations. The forceful impact can cause the disc to rupture or displace, pressing on nearby nerves.

 
Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD)
How NSSD Works to Help Disc Herniations:
NSSD therapy is a non-invasive and drug-free approach to treating disc herniations. It works by addressing the root causes of the condition and facilitating the body's natural healing processes. Here's how it helps:

Spinal Decompression: NSSD involves the use of specialized equipment, such as the DRX 9000, to gently and precisely decompress the spine. This process relieves pressure on the affected disc, allowing it to retract and heal.

Restoring Disc Health: By reducing spinal compression, NSSD helps improve the flow of oxygen, nutrients, and fluids into the damaged disc. This aids in the healing process, promoting disc health and reducing inflammation.

Pain Relief: As the pressure on nerves is alleviated, patients often experience significant pain relief. NSSD is a comfortable and relaxing treatment that encourages the body's natural pain-relieving mechanisms.

"This place is amazing, the staff is friendly and I'd recommend this place to anyone who needs it.
I recently discharged from the military with quite a few injuries, and extremely bad back pain. Since then I have seen dozens of incompetent doctors that have had no real interest in treating me, only interest is selling me the next pill or vaccine.
Dr. Boelk is not one of those doctors, this man is professional/ knowledgeable and truly cares about his patients. I have had nothing short of a great experience in this office. His nurse Megan is also very polite and caring for their patients.
These days it is very difficult to find a genuine medical professional, so when I do find them I feel that the world needs to know. This man is a good dude." - Donnie M., san Diego,CA

"I decided to see Dr. Boelk after a pretty gnarly motocross neck injury. At the Hospital I was at, I felt I was getting pressured into a surgery which I refused. A friend of a friend referred him after Dr. Boelk successfully treated his broken back.


Dr. Boelk is a compassionate individual who truly cares about his patients. He looked at my MRI images, explained what he saw and potential routes for recovery. He could not treat me as I have to wait until the fracture in my neck heals, but the level of professionalism, compassion, caring and knowledge displayed by him was exceptional. He also recommended seeking an additional opinion from another neurosurgeon. My experience was that he really cares and he's not someone who would take advantage of the situation someone's in (unlike some other doctors). I will definitely be back and have already recommended him to others as well! Thank you Dr. Boelk!" - Jan H., San Marcos, CA

"Dr Boelk saved my life! I was diagnosed with Multilevel Degenerative Back Disease. The medical back specialists recommended fusing my Cervical Spine and performing a Discectomy on my bulging disc in my lower spine. They insisted on scraping Discs - C5: C6: C7 insert cadaver bones and secure my Cervical Vertebrates with a Titanium Plate & Screws. Dr Boelk treatments on the DRX 9000 & 9000C have resulted in me avoiding any evasive operations and restoring the Health of my Cervical and Lumbar Discs. I am now PAIN FREE! I returned to my Back Surgeons and presented them with new MRI's. They concluded I didn't need any operation and wanted to know what I did. When I told them I have received treatments on the DRX 9000 they were Not Supportive and were Not Happy! I have been extremely satisfied with my results and because of my Multi-Level Cervical and Lumbar deterioration condition, I continually receive periodic DRX 9000 treatments from Dr. Boelk to help Maintain my Pain Free Status.

Dr Boelk is one of the most Honest, Informed and Caring Spinal Doctors and human beings I have ever met. His office has an amazing caring and kind staff. I owe him and his staff a tremendous amount of Respect, Gratitude & Thanks for what they have achieved with my DRX treatments in eliminating all my Back Pain! - Cliff G, San Diego, CA
