Spinal Decompression for Degenerative Disc Disease In San Diego, CA

Avoid Surgery and Relieve Pain with a Proven, Non-Invasive Treatment

Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) is one of the most common spinal conditions affecting adults over 35. Many people in San Diego are told it’s simply part of aging—or worse, that surgery is their only option. Fortunately, that’s no longer true.

At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, patients are finding powerful, lasting relief without surgery, injections, or medications through a specialized approach called Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD)—led by Dr. Cassidy Boelk, DC, one of the nation’s top Certified Spinal Decompression Doctors.

At our San Diego clinic, we use the DRX9000 system exclusively, the most advanced and research-backed decompression machine available—proven effective through studies at Stanford, Johns Hopkins, Mayo Clinic, and Duke Medical Center.

The DRX9000 uses a computerized, logarithmic pull pattern to gently stretch the spine, reduce disc pressure, and create a vacuum-like effect. This draws fluid, oxygen, and nutrients back into the discs—helping rehydrate and heal damaged tissue.
