Spinal Decompression Near Me – San Diego, CA
Non-Surgical Relief for Herniated Discs, Sciatica & Chronic Back Pain With the DRX9000
When someone types “spinal decompression near me” into Google, they’re usually in pain, frustrated, and hoping to avoid injections or surgery. At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, Dr. Cassidy Boelk, DC has spent nearly 21 years specializing exclusively in true Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) using the DRX9000, the most researched and verified spinal decompression system available.
Patients come to our San Diego clinic with disc herniations, bulges, sciatica, pinched nerves, and chronic low back or neck pain—often after trying physical therapy, chiropractic adjustments, massage, medications, or injections without lasting relief. Many are told surgery is their next step, yet end up avoiding it entirely through the proper use of NSSD.
Dr. Boelk, DC is a Certified Spinal Decompression Doctor, a Certified Pain-Free Performance Specialist, and the founder of the Spinal Decompression Training Academy, where he trains other doctors in the same protocols used in his private practice. With over 75,000 decompression sessions performed, 7 DRX9000 tables, and patients flying in from across the U.S., Mexico, Spain, and the UK, he is one of the most experienced decompression providers in the country.
⭐ How Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Works
True spinal decompression using the DRX9000 creates a controlled unloading force into the disc, reducing pressure to negative levels proven in research from Stanford, Johns Hopkins, Duke Medical Center, and the Mayo Clinic.
This reduction in intradiscal pressure helps:
- Rehydrate the disc
- Reduce disc bulges and herniations
- Improve nutrient exchange
- Reduce nerve compression
- Relieve sciatica, numbness, tingling, and sharp back or neck pain
Unlike traction or inversion tables, the DRX9000 uses advanced computerized algorithms, angle adjustments, and dynamic cycling forces that allow the disc to respond and heal rather than spasm or resist.
Not all decompression is the same — and not all equipment is capable of true decompression.
Dr. Boelk uses only DRX9000 systems because they are consistently shown to be the most effective and reproducible.

⭐ Real Patient Success Stories
Every testimonial below is 100% real and taken directly from patients treated by Dr. Boelk, DC.
**“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
“I travel from the UK to see Dr Boelk and his wonderful team. I have 3 bulging discs and one is touching the nerve. I have the spinal decompression treatment and it really helps keep me in my active life. I will not go to anyone else for back treatment, this place is number one and they genuinely care about their patients.”
— Lisa S., United Kingdom
**“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.
In December, my doctor finally ordered an MRI. That’s when I learned I had an extruded disc pressing on my L5 nerve. They referred me for injections and surgery, but I found spinal decompression instead—and I never ended up needing either appointment.
Now, I’m walking normally again, standing up straight, and doing the 75 Hard program with two 45-minute workouts daily. I thank God for leading me here. This treatment changed my life.”**
— Amanda, San Diego, CA
