Sciatica Pain Relief – La Jolla, CA (Non-Surgical Treatment)

Long-Lasting Relief Without Surgery or Injections

If you’ve been searching for “Sciatica Pain Relief – La Jolla, CA (Non-Surgical Treatment),” you’re probably tired of chasing temporary fixes. Sciatica is more than just back pain — it’s often a deep, radiating nerve pain that can make sitting, sleeping, or even walking feel unbearable.

At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, near La Jolla, Dr. Cassidy Boelk, DC has helped thousands of patients overcome chronic sciatica pain through advanced Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) using the FDA-cleared DRX9000 — the most researched and trusted spinal decompression system available today.

As a Certified Spinal Decompression Doctor and Certified Pain-Free Performance Specialist, Dr. Boelk has performed over 75,000 spinal decompression treatments and has helped patients from across California, Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, Montana, Alaska, Mexico, Spain, and the UK avoid back surgery and regain their quality of life.

What Causes Sciatica?

Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve — which runs from the lower back through the hips and down each leg — becomes compressed or irritated, usually from a disc bulge, herniation, or spinal misalignment.

This nerve compression can cause:

Over time, untreated nerve compression can lead to chronic inflammation, muscle imbalance, and even long-term nerve damage.

Many patients searching for Sciatica Pain Relief – La Jolla, CA (Non-Surgical Treatment) come to us after trying medications, physical therapy, or injections — only to find that the pain keeps returning.

How Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Works

The DRX9000 True Spinal Decompression System is not the same as standard traction or inversion tables. Each session uses precise, computer-controlled forces to gently separate the spinal vertebrae, creating negative pressure that helps retract herniated or bulging disc material and relieve nerve compression.

This process:

  1. Reduces pressure on the sciatic nerve.

  2. Increases hydration and nutrient exchange to promote disc healing.

  3. Restores spinal alignment and mobility.

  4. Provides lasting relief without surgery or downtime.

Each protocol is customized to the patient’s height, spinal level, and condition. This level of precision is what sets the DRX9000 apart — and why it has been the subject of research at Stanford, Johns Hopkins, Duke, and Mayo Clinic.

Patients who undergo Sciatica Pain Relief – La Jolla, CA (Non-Surgical Treatment) frequently report dramatic results, even after years of chronic pain.

Real Sciatica Patient Success Stories

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Michael Langsdale – San Diego, CA
“I have had a wonderful experience with Dr. Boelk and his staff at the Spinal Decompression and Chiropractic Center of San Diego. 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, you can see it in how he interacts with everyone. Been undergoing treatment for about 12 sessions now and the sciatica is gone and I’m almost back to normal, didn’t think it would ever heal but even after the first session I had tremendous relief and could sleep mostly pain free for the first time in months. Definitely worth the investment! Thank you!”

Summary:
Michael had tried other decompression offices using lower-quality machines with no improvement. After switching to the DRX9000 with Dr. Boelk, his sciatica disappeared after just twelve sessions, restoring his quality of life.

Calder Pearce – San Diego, CA
“Dr. Boelk and his team are the best in the business! I have had lower back problems for over 5 years and been to 6 other doctors seeking options other than surgery. I came in early January not able to bend and walking with a limp. By February I was able to bend again with minimal pain and by March I am now able to bend without any pain and am able to walk normally.
I am EXTREMELY happy I did not have surgery and found Dr. Boelk. Trust him and the process and he will get you feeling better. He also said from the beginning that if at any stage in the process he felt like progress wasn't happening he would let me know which was not the case with other specialists I have seen in the past so I appreciate that.”

Summary:
Calder avoided surgery and regained full mobility in under two months. His recovery highlights how decompression can restore function and stability even in chronic cases of sciatica.

Amanda S. – San Diego, CA
“Last year, I spent three months constantly going back and forth between doctor’s appointments and urgent care. The pain was unbearable—I was taking medication regularly just to get through the day. Getting out of bed was excruciating, and walking or standing felt like torture. Every step filled me with dread.
In December, my doctor finally ordered an MRI. That’s when I learned I had an extruded disc pressing on my L5 nerve, which affects the leg and foot. My doctor scheduled two follow-up appointments: one for pain management (spinal injections), and another to evaluate me for surgery.
Then I discovered spinal decompression therapy. I was thrilled to find a non-invasive alternative. I never ended up needing either of those appointments.
Now, I’m walking regularly, standing up straight—something I couldn’t do before. When I first sought help, I was so hunched over that I had to use a cane just to move forward. Because of the pain, I hadn’t exercised in months. But now, I’m doing a program called 75 hard which requires not one but two 45-minute workouts per day, and I've even gotten back to lifting weights!
I’m so thankful I found this place. It’s conveniently located near my work, which makes it easy to fit sessions into my lunch break. Dr. Boelk and the staff are incredibly friendly and polite—it’s always a pleasure to come in.
The environment is so relaxing that I look forward to each visit. I truly thank God for leading me to this alternative. It’s made such a difference in my life.”

Summary:
Amanda went from needing a cane to walking, exercising, and living pain-free — all thanks to Sciatica Pain Relief – La Jolla, CA (Non-Surgical Treatment) and Dr. Boelk’s precision decompression care.

Abel T. – San Diego, CA
“I had really bad back problems to the point I couldn’t sleep, also had pain radiating along the sciatic nerve which ran down one leg from the lower back—caused by an accident.
I came in and talked to Dr. Cassidy about my back problems. He evaluated me and mentioned I was a good candidate for this treatment. After the first 2 decompression sessions my sciatic pain was gone and we were able to work on the root of the problem. I did a total of 24 sessions, after which I was able to start rehabilitation training to strengthen my core.
The office is super nice and the staff’s customer service is above and beyond.
Back and neck issues are horrible to live with—trust me, I know firsthand. I gained weight, took pain killers, went into depression, and had major anxiety. I’m over it now—feeling better, walking, sleeping well, and starting to have a better social life as well.
The experience for me has been nothing but excellent. Dr. Cassidy Boelk is hands down amazing—super glad I came here.”

Summary:
After an accident caused severe sciatic pain, Abel found quick and lasting relief through decompression. His pain resolved within two sessions, and his energy, sleep, and confidence returned fully.

Jayson Yavorsky – Oceanside, CA
“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.
It was a regular routine of adjustments and exercises. A change of life patterns but 110% worth every effort. I have since had my wife, daughter, mother, father and multiple friends and clients visit Dr. Boelk. All thanking me for the referral. Last one was my firefighting friend that had horrible sciatica. He is now on the recovery train.
So without a doubt, if you are on the verge of surgery, don't do it until you give this Dr. a chance to examine you first. He is honest, he will tell you if you are beyond repair. I trust him with my life and my back. So should you!”

Summary:
Jayson’s sciatica left him unable to surf, golf, or even sleep. After decompression therapy, he returned to an active lifestyle and now refers family and friends from all over Southern California.
