Severe Lower Back Pain Relief – Kearny Mesa, CA
Severe lower back pain can stop your life in its tracks. When pain is strong enough to limit walking, standing, sleeping, or even getting out of bed, most people are no longer searching for “tips” — they’re searching for real relief.
If you’re searching for Severe Lower Back Pain Relief – Kearny Mesa, CA, you’re likely dealing with disc compression, nerve irritation, or a condition that hasn’t responded to traditional chiropractic care, physical therapy, injections, or medications. Many of the patients who find our office arrive frustrated, exhausted, and often told that surgery is their only remaining option.
At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, located minutes from Kearny Mesa, Dr. Cassidy Boelk, DC specializes exclusively in Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression using the DRX9000, combined with precise rehabilitation and biomechanics correction to relieve pressure at the source of pain — not just mask symptoms.
Why Severe Lower Back Pain Often Persists
Severe lower back pain is rarely caused by “tight muscles” alone. In many cases, pain continues because:
-
Spinal discs remain compressed
-
Nerves are irritated or inflamed
-
The spine cannot unload pressure properly
-
Passive treatments are used without stabilization
-
Rehab is rushed or skipped entirely
When compression remains, pain signals continue — even after adjustments, stretching, injections, or medication.
This is why true spinal decompression must be specific, controlled, and progressive, and why outcomes vary dramatically depending on the provider and equipment used.
How DRX9000 Spinal Decompression Helps Severe Lower Back Pain
True Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression with the DRX9000 works by gently and precisely reducing pressure inside the disc, allowing improved fluid exchange, reduced nerve irritation, and a safer environment for healing.
At our Kearny Mesa-area clinic, decompression is never used alone. Dr. Boelk integrates:
-
Customized decompression force profiles
-
Disc-specific positioning
-
Gradual load progression
-
Active spinal stability and biomechanics training
-
Clear patient education so results last
This combination is why patients seek out Severe Lower Back Pain Relief – Kearny Mesa, CA at our clinic specifically — even after other options have failed.
Real Patient Experiences
**“I have been dealing with back pain for several years. It got so bad that I had surgery 5 years ago for a bulging disc. About 5 months ago the disc bulged again hitting my sciatic nerve creating pain in my legs that made me want to cry it hurt so bad. After trying so many other options I was fortunate enough to find the spinal decompression and chiropractic center of San Diego. After just a few sessions I noticed a difference. Now after being there for the past few months I'm able to go about my normal life again.
What a blessing it was to find a Dr that genuinely cares and knows how to help people in my situation. Thank you Dr Boelk!”**
— Anthony K., San Diego, CA
Why this matters: Anthony had already undergone surgery and still experienced recurring disc-related pain. His outcome highlights why proper decompression protocols and long-term stabilization are critical when severe lower back pain returns after surgery.
**“I was having pain radiating down my legs — I couldn’t sleep or walk normally.
After treatment, I’m back to shoveling snow, teaching, walking… I can live again.
It was absolutely worth traveling from Alaska to see Dr. Boelk and his team!”**
— Lynn C., Alaska
Why this matters: Lynn traveled thousands of miles because severe lower back and nerve pain limited basic daily function. Her experience reflects how targeted decompression can restore mobility even when pain has become life-altering.
**“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.”**
— Abel T., San Diego, CA
Why this matters: Abel’s case shows the importance of completing a full decompression and rehabilitation plan — not stopping once pain improves — to address the root cause and prevent relapse.
“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!”
— Michael Langsdale, San Diego, CA
Why this matters: Michael’s experience highlights how equipment quality and provider expertise directly affect outcomes. Not all decompression machines — or protocols — are equal.
