Severe Neck Pain Relief Without Surgery In San Diego, CA

Severe Neck Pain Relief Without Surgery In San Diego, CA

If you’re suffering from severe neck pain, the discomfort can be life-altering. Whether it's keeping you from sleeping, working, driving, or enjoying time with your family, the pain can become relentless. The good news? Many cases of neck pain can be effectively treated without surgery, injections, or long-term medication.

At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, Dr. Cassidy Boelk DC has helped thousands of patients suffering from chronic and severe neck pain using a comprehensive, non-surgical approach. The key is understanding the true cause of the pain — and then treating it with a combination of the most advanced technology and active, functional rehabilitation.


🔍 Why Most Severe Neck Pain Comes From the Discs

In many cases, severe or chronic neck pain stems from:

These conditions can compress or irritate nearby nerves, leading to not just neck pain but also radiating symptoms such as numbness, tingling, arm weakness, or headaches. That said, not all neck pain comes from a disc issue — which is why guessing simply doesn’t work.


🧠 We Don’t Guess — We Assess

At our San Diego clinic, every patient begins with a thorough review of their health history, a detailed consultation, and a precise physical examination. If needed, we refer for advanced diagnostic imaging (such as MRI) to accurately identify the root cause of your pain.

Only after we determine the source of your neck pain can we recommend the most appropriate treatment — and if we don’t believe we can help, we’ll let you know right away.


💡 If It’s Disc Compression, Here’s Why Our Approach Works

If your pain is caused by a compressed or damaged disc, we may recommend Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) using the DRX9000 cervical decompression system.

How NSSD Works:

The DRX9000 is FDA-cleared and backed by research from institutions like Stanford, Johns Hopkins, Mayo Clinic, and Duke Medical Center.


🧠 Why Dr. Boelk Is Considered a Leading Expert

Dr. Cassidy Boelk DC is not only a Certified Spinal Decompression Doctor, but also a Certified Pain-Free Performance Specialist who has performed over 65,000 decompression sessions over the last 20+ years. He is the founder of the Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Training Academy, where he trains doctors nationwide in advanced decompression protocols and patient care systems.

Patients drive and fly in from across the U.S. and internationally — including from Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Oregon, Mexico, Spain, and the UK — seeking his expertise in non-surgical spinal care.


🔄 It's Not Just Passive Therapy — It's Active Recovery

What sets our clinic apart is that we don’t rely on passive decompression alone. Our high success rates come from combining:

This comprehensive approach helps us correct the cause of the problem, stabilize the spine, and give patients long-lasting relief — often helping them avoid spinal surgery altogether.

“I was in constant pain and could barely walk. My MRI showed a disc extrusion pressing on my L5 nerve, and I had appointments scheduled for injections and a surgical evaluation.

Then I found Dr. Boelk’s spinal decompression program and canceled both appointments. I didn’t need them.

Now, I’m back to walking, standing straight, and doing two workouts a day. I’ve even returned to weightlifting. This treatment changed my life.”
 Amanda, San Diego

 

"Dr. Boelk & his staff are by far the BEST at spinal decompression. I walked into his office unable to sit to do my job, and 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."

"I found out about Dr. Boelk on the internet while searching for a doctor for my friend. I’ve always had back issues, so I decided to have an MRI. Dr. Boelk discovered I had a bulging disc and dehydrated discs. At first, I was scared, but my husband and I decided the investment in my health was worth it. I now travel from El Centro four times a week because of the amazing results. The staff makes you feel like family. I feel better and have recommended this treatment to my family and friends. Thank you!"
