Relief from Degenerative Disc Disease in Kearny Mesa, CA

Finding Relief from Degenerative Disc Disease in Kearny Mesa, CA
If you're dealing with the discomfort of Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD), you're not alone. This common condition can be a source of persistent pain and limited mobility. But there's good news – there's an effective, non-surgical solution right here in San Diego.

Understanding Degenerative Disc Disease
First, let's demystify DDD. It's a condition that affects the rubbery discs between your vertebrae, causing them to break down and lose their cushioning ability over time. This can result in pain, stiffness, and reduced flexibility in the spine. While it's often associated with aging, DDD can affect people of all ages.

The Role of NSSD
So, how do you find relief from DDD without resorting to drugs, injections, or surgery? Enter Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD). This innovative chiropractic technique is a game-changer for DDD.

1. Targeting the Root Cause
NSSD doesn't just mask the pain – it addresses the exact cause of DDD. By gently stretching the spine, NSSD creates negative pressure within the discs. This encourages the retraction of bulging or herniated disc material, reducing pressure on nerves and promoting natural healing.

2. A Safe Alternative
Unlike surgery, which can be invasive and carry risks, NSSD is a non-invasive and safe alternative. It eliminates the need for medications and injections that may have side effects or offer temporary relief.

3. Proven Effectiveness
NSSD's effectiveness isn't just anecdotal – it's backed by scientific research and studies. Renowned institutions like Johns Hopkins University, Duke Medical Center, Mayo Clinic, and Stanford University have conducted research confirming its success.

4. Tailored Treatment
One of the strengths of NSSD is its adaptability. Your treatment plan is customized to your specific needs, ensuring you receive the care that's right for you.

How Does NSSD Work?
Understanding how NSSD works can help demystify the process and showcase why it's a game-changer for disc-related issues:

Step 1: Decompression: NSSD gently and precisely stretches the spine. This creates negative pressure within the spinal discs, promoting the retraction of herniated or bulging disc material.

Step 2: Natural Healing: With the pressure off the nerves, the disc's natural pumping system can kick into gear, allowing nutrients and fluids to flow back into the disc. This initiates the natural healing process.

Step 3: Stabilization: We don't stop at pain relief. Our comprehensive approach includes building spinal strength and stability to prevent future recurrences.

Backed by Science:
NSSD isn't just a claim; it's backed by scientific research and studies. Renowned institutions like Johns Hopkins University, Duke Medical Center, Mayo Clinic, and Stanford University have conducted research validating the effectiveness of NSSD.

"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 lay each day & 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 4 people there at the same time, and he still made me feel this way. I guess I just cannot thank him enough & cannot recommend him enough. He is an angel on earth. If you visit him, please listen to him & follow his instructions. He knows what's best for you. " - Erin T
 
 Rated the #1 Spinal Decompression office in San Diego for many reasons. Here is a quick guide to finding the best office when searching for Spinal Decompression:

1. Does the office specialize In Spinal Decompression or is it just one of many multiple treatments they offer? We have seen many patients come from other offices who said they are specialists and experts in spinal decompression but only treat 3 or 4 patients a day on decompression.

2. Is the doctor or staff actually getting the patients on the treatments? Spinal Decompression is a specialized skill and requires daily decision making and protocols vary from person to person, it is not a one size fits all approach. Many patients come from different offices and inform us they were getting decompression but it was done by the staff and many times they are in pain when on the tables. The treatments should not be painful but feel good.

3. Is the doctor Certified? There are many doctors who are utilizing spinal decompression who are not certified. It is best to see someone who took the time and learned the process and is certified.

4. Do they have a good reputation and reviews that report the doctor and office and staff are looking out for the patient and there is a common theme of the doctor caring and wanting the best for their patients?

5. Experience? How long has the office been utilizing spinal decompression? How many sessions have they performed? You want to see someone who has a lot of experience and knowledge in their field when looking for spinal decompression offices.

Neuropathy

With true spinal decompression, we can get water, oxygen and nutrients into the disc itself while flushing out swelling and inflammation which is adding to the pain. With traction and inversion tables the spinal muscles are unable to fully relax and thus they stay somewhat activated which then prevents the discs from getting into a negative pressure and healing properly and getting rid of the pain as much as possible.

Dr Boelk is thorough, technical, and explains everything very well. Excellent bedside manner and all the staff are very nice. Decompression treatment is effective and I have no more neck pain." - Andre G.

"Dr. Boelk is professional and kind. He has the health of his patients as his top priority. The decompression treatments, exercises, and diet adjustments he recommended and administered have so diminished my back pain that I can sleep again. Chiropractic adjustments did not help my lower back. Decompression did. I highly recommend Dr. Boelk."- Steve R.

"Hi my name is Mercedes Bautista.  I found out about this treatment on the internet and I came because I was searching for a doctor for my friend.  I have always had low back problems, so Dr. Boelk suggested that I have an MRI done.  I decided to go ahead and do it and what I found out was astonishing. Dr. Boelk told me I had a bulging disc and that my discs were dehydrated.
I went home very surprised and even scared.
That night with my husband I cried.  My husband and I both talked about it and decided that the finances were worth getting my back fixed.  The next thing we had to figure out was how I was going to get here, because I live in El Centro.
So we decided we were going to rent a car and I travel here 4 times a week.  The girls here are wonderful and very awesome.  They make you feel like family, it’s an extremely relaxing environment.  I feel better and I have recommended this treatment to my family and friends.  Thank You"!
