Ruptured Disc Treatment San Diego Ca

Ruptured Disc Treatment San Diego Ca

 
If you are searching for ruptured disc treatment San Diego CA then you are most likely in some severe pain or you are searching for someone who is. We have been specializing in treating patients with disc injuries for the past 18 years. We have performed over 30,000 treatments during this time and have learned a thing or two about how to get people out of pain fast and avoid surgery.
 
A "ruptured" disc actually means that the inner jelly-like substance of the disc has migrated outside of its normal placement and most likely is pressing upon the spinal nerve or spinal cord or both and this is the cause of the pain. So rather than try to block the pain with drugs, pain medications,  injections or cut it out with surgery, we work to decompress the spinal discs to allow the disc material to come back off the nerve and spinal cord to treat the source and cause of the pain for long lasting results.
 
Spinal decompression is a well researched and proven treatment but needs to be rendered in a specific and individualized  way. There is science, art and expertise as well as extensive knowledge on how to go about treating a patient properly with spinal decompression. Unfortunately many doctors are unaware  of just how many factors need to be considered when entering the settings for each individual treatment and they haven't spent the time, energy or financials to better Theron procedures and hence their patient outcomes are poor.

 

Our clinic director, owner and founder,Dr. Cassidy Boelk DC is a certified spinal decompression doctor, has thousands of hours of research and clinical hours spent treating patients as well as thousands of hours spent in the gym, and on spinal stabilization and rehabilitation. He has performed over 30,000 spinal decompression treatments over the past 18 years and has been able to treat his own neck and beck from multiple sports injuries. 2 disc herniations in his neck, 3 in his lower back, 2 severe cases of sciatica and a broken back provided him with extensive and first hand knowledge of spinal mechanics and spinal Decompression.

 

He is very active and plays golf, baseball, hockey and works out and surfs and snowboards. He could not be this active without treating himself with spinal decompression and the spinal stabilization protocols he uses for himself.

 

He loves to share what he has learned and help his patients get and to stay out of pain.

 

We utilize science based, proven and effective treatments researched by Johns Hopkins uNiversity, Stanford University, Duke Medical Center and Mayo Clinic among others. NSSD or Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression is a comfortable treatment that is computer aided and feels great. It works by gently creating separation between the spinal vertebrae 9 back bones) which allows for pressure to come off of the disc and the nerves. With sciatica, that would be the sciatic nerve which is producing the pain. Once the discs are being decompressed they are then once again able to get water, oxygen and nutrients to aid in healing and reduction of inflammation and pain.

 

With over 30,000 spinal decompression treatments performed over the past 18 years, our office is the largest provider of spinal decompression that we know of in San Diego as well as the state of California.

 

 

 

Most of our patients fall asleep or listen to podcasts or music while on the tables and it feels great. Followed up by specific spinal stabilization protocols developed by Dr. Cassidy Boelk, DC to help ensure the pain relief lasts.

 

 

3 keys for any complete disc injury Spinal Decompression treatment protocol will consist of the following:

 

Modification- there are numerous movements through the day that are aggravating your condition and any good doctor will discuss and set a plan to remedy this.
 

Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression is extremely comfortable and takes the compression off the spinal discs which then allows the disc to come off the spinal nerves, mainly the sciatic nerve. At the same time the disc is now able to get water, oxygen and nutrients that are vital.
 

Spinal Stabilization- if not addressed and the spinal and gluteal (butt) muscles are not strengthened the the pressure will once again be placed on the spinal discs which will once again cause the pain.
 

 Our treatments we use are clinically proven highly effective and have been researched by Johns Hopkins University, Stanford University, Duke Medical Center and Mayo Clinic among others.

"I came in with extreme back pain, resulting in days were it was difficult to get out of bed.  There were moments where I would be walking and then my back would lock up.  I thought it was something I have dealt with in the past but this last the entire month of July.  I finally dedicated myself to finding the long term solution.  

 

‘I came to Dr. Boelk unsure about the process, but after he identified exactly what my ailment was, I felt confident that this was the long term solution I was looking for. I instantly felt better and Dr. Boelk kept encouraging me to trust the process and understand it will take time to feel 100%.  I am now pain free and honestly feel stronger, even a little taller.   I highly recommend you visit Dr. Boelk." - Ming T.

 

"I highly recommend Dr.Boelk to everyone who has issues with their back and neck. After 2 months of treatment I am feeling a considerable difference. Dr. Boelk's skills and experience are incredible. Especially I appreciate his "very cautious and attentive " approach to the health: no unnecessary adjustment and procedures. I am very grateful to Dr.Boelk for his knowledgeable and professional treatment." - Olga M.

 

"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

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.
