Lasting Relief Without Surgery

If you’re living with chronic back pain, disc bulges, or sciatica and want a real solution without drugs or surgery, spinal decompression therapies in Kearny Mesa, CA may be exactly what you’ve been searching for.

At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, located just minutes from central Kearny Mesa, Dr. Cassidy Boelk, DC, has helped thousands of patients avoid surgery and return to pain-free, active lives through advanced Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) treatments using the DRX9000 True Spinal Decompression System — the most researched and trusted technology available today.

What Are Spinal Decompression Therapies?

Spinal decompression therapy is a safe, gentle, and highly effective treatment designed to reduce disc and nerve pressure. The process creates negative pressure within spinal discs, allowing herniated or bulging material to retract while restoring oxygen, hydration, and circulation to the affected area.

Unlike standard traction or inversion tables, the DRX9000 True Spinal Decompression System uses advanced computer-controlled sensors to adjust in real time to your body’s tension, preventing muscle guarding and allowing for deeper, more effective disc decompression.

The system is FDA-cleared and supported by research from Stanford University, Johns Hopkins, Duke Medical Center, and the Mayo Clinic, confirming its safety and success in helping patients achieve long-term relief.

“This review is long overdue. I came here initially with skepticism but also hope—they were my last resort for ongoing back issues after a whiplash injury. I had tried just about everything: sports massages, chiropractors, cupping, acupuncture—nothing gave me lasting relief.
That changed when I started spinal decompression therapy here. From the beginning, they were upfront and let me know it might take 12 or more sessions to feel significant relief. But during one visit, the doctor asked how I was doing, and I suddenly realized—I hadn’t felt pain in a while. That moment came after just six sessions.
I’m now on a maintenance program and come in as needed. While I still experience occasional flare-ups, the relief this treatment provides has been life-changing. Honestly, I’d pay even more for the results I’ve experienced.”

Why Patients in Kearny Mesa Choose Our Spinal Decompression Therapies

Each patient’s condition is unique, which is why Dr. Boelk personally evaluates every case before recommending treatment. Every decompression protocol is individually programmed — including angle, force, and timing — to match each patient’s exact needs.

With over 75,000 decompression treatments performed and seven DRX9000 systems in one facility, Dr. Boelk’s office is the largest known provider of spinal decompression therapies in California. His decades of focused experience allow him to achieve results that many patients were told were impossible elsewhere.

“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 two 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.”

“My first few sessions did not seem promising so I stopped going and wrote an honest review. I honestly did not think any action would result after my review.
But I have to give kudos to Dr. Cassidy. He was not aware of what had happened, emailed me personally with a heartfelt apology, and addressed my concerns moving forward. He genuinely wanted me to get better and provided several options to ensure I got the care I needed.
After going over the options, I decided to return. I was skeptical but the staff treated me as if I had never written the review, and I saw my concerns addressed right away. Dr. Cassidy had a small follow-up meeting with me that same day, apologized, and made sure my plan was right.
I continued to finish the 12 sessions as originally planned. The pain improved but there was still slight discomfort, so he suggested a two-week follow-up while continuing my workout routine. When I returned after two weeks, my pain was at a 9/10 but after the session I felt instantly better.
It’s been 2.5 weeks since that last treatment and I have not had any headaches or severe neck pain. I’m now able to work out without severe pain. I cannot stress how nice and caring the staff really is, especially the doctor—they genuinely want you to get better. Please, please give this place a chance.”
