“I COULDN’T PLAY SPORTS OR EVEN SLEEP”

“There is not enough room to explain the relief Dr. Boelk has brought to me and my entire family. I found him after a year of sciatic pain. Couldn't play the sports I loved, no hockey, golf or surfing. The pain shooting from my hip to my left foot was to the point of unbearable.

I had been visiting chiropractors since I was 18, temporary relief, but nothing consistent. Acupuncture helped a bit, physical therapy was unmanageable. I couldn't get a solid night sleep and didn't care to go on. But Then I met the Dr! I tell people regularly, he saved my life.”

— Jayson Yavorsky, San Diego, CA

WHAT DOES A “PINCHED NERVE” ACTUALLY MEAN?

A “pinched nerve” is often associated with irritation or compression affecting spinal nerves.

In many cases, patients may also be dealing with:

  • disc herniations
  • disc bulges
  • inflammation
  • spinal compression
  • movement dysfunction

Symptoms may include:
✔ Burning Pain
✔ Tingling
✔ Numbness
✔ Electrical Pain
✔ Weakness
✔ Pain Sitting
✔ Pain Driving
✔ Foot Symptoms
✔ Calf Tightness

This is one reason Dr. Boelk evaluates:

  • posture
  • spinal stability
  • sitting tolerance
  • movement mechanics
  • neurological findings
  • MRI findings if available

rather than simply applying generalized treatment.


“THE FIRST NIGHT I WAS ABLE TO SLEEP THROUGH THE NIGHT”

“I herniated my L4-L5 disc. MRI showed it was 0.9 centimeters out of place, which is, they were surprised I was even walking.

I had terrible sciatica. I could barely sleep.

I went to a different decompression clinic first, but they had really bad tables that were inferior, and they actually got worse.

After wasting a bunch of money there, I came here.

The first night I was here, I was able to sleep throughout the night. I didn't have any pain.”

— Michael Langsdale, San Diego, CA


THIS IS NOT GENERIC TRACTION

Many patients eventually discover:

NOT ALL SPINAL DECOMPRESSION IS THE SAME.

Differences may involve:

  • machine quality
  • provider experience
  • treatment progression
  • pull consistency
  • patient positioning
  • protocol customization

At our office, Dr. Boelk exclusively uses:

DRX9000 TRUE SPINAL DECOMPRESSION SYSTEMS

Treatment protocols are highly individualized based on:
✔ MRI Findings
✔ Symptom Severity
✔ Disc Involvement
✔ Nerve Irritation
✔ Sitting Tolerance
✔ Movement Patterns
✔ Patient Response

Research involving spinal decompression has been associated with:

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

NOT EVERY PATIENT IS A CANDIDATE

One of the biggest misconceptions online is:

“Every Pinched Nerve Can Heal Without Surgery.”

That is simply NOT true.

Some patients may require:

  • surgical consultation
  • additional imaging
  • different conservative treatment
  • co-management
  • stabilization first

depending on:

  • instability
  • neurological findings
  • structural damage
  • progressive weakness
  • severity of compression

Dr. Boelk focuses heavily on:
✔ Honest Recommendations
✔ Proper Patient Selection
✔ Realistic Expectations
✔ Individualized Treatment Planning

rather than simply recommending treatment to everyone.


“HE HONESTLY TOLD ME SURGERY WAS MY BEST OPTION”

“I met with the doctor and after an honest and forthright conversation, we both determined that surgery was my only option to correct my back issues.

My experience was that he really cares and he's not someone who would take advantage of the situation someone's in.”

— Jeff J., Tucson, AZ

That honesty is one reason many patients specifically seek Dr. Boelk for:

  • second opinions
  • failed treatment cases
  • severe sciatica
  • spinal decompression evaluation
  • surgical alternatives

2 THINGS SOME PATIENTS MAY TRY AT HOME

⚠️ These movements are NOT appropriate for everyone.

If symptoms worsen significantly:

  • stop immediately
  • avoid pushing through severe pain
  • seek proper evaluation

1. RELAXED PRONE LYING

Some patients dealing with disc-related sciatica may temporarily feel relief laying relaxed on their stomach for several minutes.

This should be:

  • passive
  • relaxed
  • comfortable

NOT:

  • forceful
  • painful
  • aggressive

2. GENTLE STANDING BACK BENDS

For SOME patients, gentle standing back bends may temporarily help reduce irritation aggravated by prolonged sitting or bending forward.

⚠️ Stop immediately if symptoms worsen further down the leg.


“AFTER JUST A FEW SESSIONS I NOTICED A DIFFERENCE”

“The disc bulged again hitting my sciatic nerve creating pain in my legs that made me want to cry it hurt so bad.

After trying so many other options I was fortunate enough to find the spinal decompression and chiropractic center of San Diego.

After just a few sessions I noticed a difference.

Now after being there for the past few months I'm able to go about my normal life again.”

— Anthony K., San Diego, CA
