Severe Sciatica & Hip Pain Treatment In San Diego, CA
Customized, Proven, Non-Surgical Relief at The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego
If you’re suffering from severe sciatica or hip pain in San Diego, you know how quickly it can interfere with your ability to walk, sit, sleep, or enjoy daily life. The burning, radiating pain from your lower back into your hip and down your leg is not only frustrating—it’s often misunderstood and mistreated.
At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, Dr. Cassidy Boelk DC, a Certified Spinal Decompression Doctor and Certified Pain-Free Performance Specialist, has helped thousands of patients find lasting relief from severe sciatica without the use of drugs, injections, or surgery. With nearly 20 years of experience and over 65,000 decompression sessions performed, Dr. Boelk is known for his targeted, personalized, and highly effective approach to resolving sciatic nerve pain.
🔍 Why Does Sciatica Happen?
Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve becomes compressed or irritated, often due to:
-
Herniated or bulging discs
-
Degenerative disc disease
-
Spinal misalignment
-
Muscle imbalance or inflammation
-
Postural strain or previous injuries
This nerve compression leads to pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness that may begin in the lower back and travel through the hip, buttocks, and leg, sometimes all the way down to the foot. The pain can be sharp, burning, or electric—varying in intensity and frequency.
💡 Why Typical Treatments Often Fail
While many treatments offer temporary relief—such as medications, injections, or massage—they don’t address the root cause: the pressure on the nerve itself. Without resolving the underlying disc or structural issues, symptoms tend to return or worsen over time.
That’s why Dr. Boelk’s approach is different.
✅ Why Dr. Boelk’s Approach Works
Dr. Boelk uses a unique combination of Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) and targeted rehab therapy to not only relieve pressure on the sciatic nerve but also correct the contributing factors causing the problem in the first place.
What sets Dr. Boelk apart?
-
🔹 Exclusive Use of the DRX9000: Our clinic only uses this FDA-cleared, research-backed decompression system—not general traction or inversion tables. The DRX9000 has been studied by Stanford, Johns Hopkins, Duke, and Mayo Clinic.
-
🔹 Customized Treatment Plans: Every patient receives a plan tailored to their condition, history, and lifestyle.
-
🔹 Passive AND Active Treatment: Spinal decompression (passive) relieves nerve pressure, while custom stability and mobility rehab (active) helps prevent future flare-ups.
-
🔹 Decades of Experience: Dr. Boelk has spent thousands of hours rehabilitating both his own injuries and his patients'—including many who travel from out of state and internationally to seek his care.

– Modesto Z., Oceanside, CA"Super knowledgeable, genuinely caring, and results-driven. Dr. Boelk helped me when nothing else did."
– Toni W., Lake Elsinore, 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."
– Calder Pearce, San Diego, CA"I was so tired of being in pain and felt I had tried all resources. After two unsuccessful cortisone shots, my primary doctor told me surgery might be my only option. I wanted to avoid surgery at all costs. After committing to Dr. Boelk’s spinal decompression plan, I am now completely pain-free! I plan to continue maintenance sessions to keep myself feeling great."
– Marlo Surovsky, San Diego, CA"I travel from the UK to see Dr. Boelk and his wonderful team. I have 3 bulging discs, and one was pressing on my sciatic nerve. The spinal decompression treatments have kept me active and pain-free. I wouldn't go anywhere else!"
