Sciatica Non Surgical Treatment Options in San Diego, CA
Avoid Surgery. Relieve Pain. Heal the Root of the Problem.

If you’re suffering from sciatica, you already know how debilitating it can be—pain radiating down your leg, numbness or tingling in your foot, and constant discomfort that makes it hard to work, sleep, or enjoy life.

The good news? You have multiple treatment options—and surgery is rarely the best place to start.

🚫 Why Surgery Should Usually Be the Last Resort

Many patients are told early on that surgery is their only hope. But in most cases, that simply isn’t true. Spinal surgery carries risks, long recovery times, and often doesn’t address the root cause of the issue.

Unless there’s a severe neurological deficit, loss of bowel/bladder control, or complete loss of function—non-surgical options should be tried first.

✅ Proven Non-Surgical Sciatica Treatment That Works

At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, we specialize in helping patients avoid surgery through a powerful, research-backed therapy called:

Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD)

We exclusively use the DRX9000 system—the gold standard in true spinal decompression, with research support from:

• Stanford University

• Johns Hopkins

• Duke Medical Center

• The Mayo Clinic

🔬 How Does NSSD Work?

Sciatica is often caused by disc issues—bulging, herniated, or degenerated discs that press on the sciatic nerve.

Here’s how NSSD helps:

• Gently stretches the spine in a controlled, computer-guided way

• Creates negative pressure inside the disc to pull material back in

• Reduces nerve compression and inflammation

• Restores motion and allows the disc to heal naturally

The DRX9000 monitors your body 13 times per second, adjusting in real-time for safety and maximum effectiveness.

💡 It’s Not Just the Machine—It’s the Entire Protocol

Not every patient gets the same treatment. That’s why we:

• Customize every NSSD protocol based on your condition and progress

• Combine passive therapy (NSSD) with active therapy, including:

  • Core and spinal stability training

  • Specific mobility work

  • Postural and movement retraining

• Tailor each plan to your unique anatomy, goals, and pain pattern

This combination is why we’ve been able to help thousands of patients get long-lasting relief—even those who had tried everything else.
