Quick Sciatica & Leg Pain Relief – Kearny Mesa, CA
A Trusted, Non-Surgical Solution to End the Pain and Get Moving Again
If you’re suffering from sharp, burning pain running down your leg—especially from your low back into your glute, hamstring, or calf—you may be dealing with sciatica, and it’s likely coming from a herniated or bulging disc in your lower back.
In Kearny Mesa and the surrounding San Diego region, more and more people are finding fast, non-invasive relief through Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) with the DRX9000 system at The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego.
Led by Dr. Cassidy Boelk DC, a Certified Spinal Decompression Doctor and Pain-Free Performance Specialist, our clinic specializes in treating disc-related leg pain safely—without medication, injections, or surgery.
🧠 What Causes Sciatica to Start?
Sciatica develops when the sciatic nerve becomes compressed or irritated, usually by a disc in the lumbar spine. This pressure disrupts the nerve signal and causes pain, numbness, or weakness to travel down the leg. Most cases are the result of:
- A herniated or bulging disc
- Degenerative disc changes
- Spinal compression from poor posture or sitting too long
- Lifting injuries or repetitive motion
- Trauma like falls or car accidents
When left unaddressed, the pain often worsens, spreading further down the leg or affecting movement and sleep.
🏠 What You Can Do Right Now at Home
While long-term relief typically requires professional care, you can take steps at home to minimize symptoms:
- Apply ice to your low back (not the leg) for 15–20 minutes
- Use gentle walking to reduce pressure and stimulate circulation
- Sit upright with lumbar support and avoid slouching
- Avoid lifting, twisting, or long periods of sitting
- Perform gentle stretches if they don’t worsen the pain
These methods may help for now—but if you have a disc issue, the only true fix is reducing the disc pressure itself.
💡 Why NSSD with the DRX9000 Works So Well
Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) is not general traction or an inversion table. At our Kearny Mesa facility, we exclusively use the FDA-cleared DRX9000, which has been studied and supported by top institutions including Stanford, Johns Hopkins, Duke, and Mayo Clinic.
The DRX9000 gently and precisely pulls the vertebrae apart just enough to:
- Create a vacuum effect inside the disc
- Allow bulging or herniated material to retract away from nerves
- Improve disc hydration and healing
- Alleviate pressure on the sciatic nerve
- Reduce inflammation and promote mobility
Treatments are comfortable, highly effective, and require no downtime.

— Jessica C., San Diego San Diego Spinal Decompression Therapy
"Dr. Boelk has been a life saver. Have had constant lower back and sciatica pain for over 8 plus months, no pills helped and on track for multiple shots but with the treatment given I have found relief and down to zero pain. As a firefighter that relies on his body to help others and the results I have experienced it's totally worth looking into what Dr. Boelk can do for you."
— Joshua T. San Diego Spinal Decompression Therapy
"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."
