Pinched Nerve in Neck Won’t Go Away – San Diego, CA
Lisa S., San Diego, CA (June 2024)
“I came to Dr. Boelk’s office after years of neck pain, headaches, and nerve pain radiating into my arm. I had tried everything—physical therapy, adjustments, injections—but nothing lasted. Within weeks of starting spinal decompression, my pain began to fade. The headaches stopped, and for the first time in years, I could sleep comfortably. Dr. Boelk and his staff are incredible. They genuinely care and explain everything clearly. I’m so thankful I found this place.”
🧠 Why Your Pinched Nerve in the Neck Won’t Go Away
If you’ve been searching “pinched nerve in neck won’t go away San Diego”, you’re likely frustrated—and for good reason. When a cervical nerve stays compressed for weeks or months, it causes persistent pain, tingling, or weakness that no amount of stretching or medication can fix.
The root issue is often a herniated or bulging cervical disc pressing directly on the nerve root. Until that disc pressure is relieved, inflammation continues and the nerve can’t heal properly.
Common symptoms include:
- Shooting or burning pain in the neck, shoulder, or arm
- Numbness or tingling in the hand or fingers
- Stiffness, loss of motion, or muscle weakness
- Pain that worsens with head movement or sleeping positions
💡 How Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Works
At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, led by Dr. Cassidy Boelk, DC, we specialize in helping patients recover naturally—without injections, drugs, or surgery.
We use the FDA-cleared DRX 9000 True Spinal Decompression System, the most advanced and researched decompression technology available. It has been studied and validated by Stanford University, Johns Hopkins, Duke Medical Center, and Mayo Clinic.
Unlike traction or inversion tables, the DRX 9000 gently and precisely creates a negative pressure within the disc space. This vacuum-like effect draws oxygen and nutrients back into the disc, helping the herniation retract and reducing direct pressure on the nerve.
Benefits of DRX 9000 Spinal Decompression:
- Relieves nerve pressure and inflammation
- Restores normal disc height and motion
- Increases nutrient exchange through spinal imbibition
- Improves posture and neck mobility
- Helps many patients avoid surgery altogether

“I’ve had a wonderful experience with Dr. Boelk and his staff. They have a great protocol and the best decompression machines. I’ve been to other places with sub-par machines and didn’t get any benefit. Dr. Boelk is very attentive and cares about each person—he listens and actually helps. After about 12 sessions, my sciatica was gone, and I’m almost back to normal. I didn’t think it would ever heal, but even my leg pain is gone now.”
💧 Restoring Natural Healing Through Decompression
Your spinal discs are living tissue that rely on movement and pressure changes to stay healthy—a process known as spinal imbibition. When discs are compressed or injured, they lose fluid and nutrients, becoming weak and inflamed.
Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression reactivates this vital healing process, allowing discs to rehydrate and nerves to recover naturally.
Patients often report better posture, restored range of motion, and lasting relief once nerve pressure is corrected at its source.
⚙️ Customized Protocols for Lasting Relief
Every patient’s spine and injury pattern is unique.
That’s why Dr. Boelk personally reviews each MRI and creates a customized decompression plan based on your disc levels, spinal curve, and tolerance.
Your plan includes:
- Consultation & Imaging Review – Identifying the exact cause of your nerve compression
- Custom DRX 9000 Treatments – Targeted decompression for your cervical discs
- Progressive Adjustments – Modified as your condition improves
- Active Stability Training – Strengthening the muscles that protect your neck and spine

“At first, I didn’t think decompression was working and even left a review saying so.
Dr. Boelk personally reached out, apologized, and invited me back to make things right. He adjusted my plan and checked in with me himself.
After completing my sessions, my neck pain and headaches were gone — and they’ve stayed gone.
The staff treated me with respect and genuine care the entire time. I’m so grateful I gave this place another chance.”
🩻 Why We Use Only the DRX 9000
Many clinics claim to offer decompression but use generic traction tables that can’t precisely target individual discs or control the pull angle and timing.
At our San Diego clinic, we use only DRX 9000 True Spinal Decompression Systems—the gold standard used in published research.
We currently operate seven DRX 9000 tables, making our office the largest and most experienced spinal decompression provider in California. This allows us to treat more patients with precision, comfort, and consistent results.

“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 lie down each day, and 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.
First of all, he has suffered from some severe back issues, so his empathy is very high. Secondly, he is extremely caring & genuinely wants to help people.
I’ve never worked with a doctor who has cared as much and made me feel like I was his only patient before. There would be four people there at the same time, and he still made me feel this way. I cannot thank him enough & cannot recommend him enough. He is an angel on earth.”
