🧠 What Is Spinal Stenosis?
Spinal stenosis is a condition where the space inside the spine narrows, compressing the nerves that travel through it. This can occur anywhere along the spine, though it’s most common in the lower back (lumbar) and neck (cervical) regions.
Common causes include:
-
Degenerative disc disease
-
Bulging or herniated discs
-
Bone spurs or arthritis
-
Thickened ligaments
-
Prior injuries or chronic postural strain
This nerve compression often results in:
-
Sharp, aching, or burning pain in the back or legs
-
Numbness, tingling, or weakness in the legs or feet
-
Pain that worsens with walking or standing
-
Relief when bending forward or sitting
-
Reduced balance or coordination
Over time, these symptoms can worsen — but with early, proper care, most patients can avoid surgery and restore function naturally.
💡 How Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Helps
Our clinic in San Diego, serving nearby Chula Vista, uses the DRX9000 True Spinal Decompression System, the most advanced non-surgical technology available for treating spinal stenosis.
During treatment:
-
The DRX9000 gently and precisely separates the vertebrae, creating negative pressure within the disc space.
-
This reduction in pressure allows bulging or herniated discs to retract and relieve pressure on the nerves.
-
Nutrient-rich fluids flow back into the discs, supporting healing and improved spinal function.
-
Each treatment is individually customized based on your MRI, spinal condition, and comfort level.
This process not only helps reduce nerve compression but can also improve mobility, posture, and circulation — often providing noticeable relief within just a few sessions.
💬 Patient Success Stories
Calder Pearce – San Diego, CA (3/07/25)
“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. Trust him and the process and he will get you feeling better. He also said from the beginning that if at any stage in the process he felt like progress wasn't happening he would let me know which was not the case with other specialists I have seen in the past so I appreciate that.”
Summary: Calder avoided surgery, regained full range of motion, and was pain-free within three months after years of failed treatment elsewhere.
Marlo Surovsky – San Diego, CA
“I was so tired of being in pain and felt I had tried all resources. After two unsuccessful cortizone shots in my back (cash out of pocket) recommended by my primary care doctor who assured me that would do the trick, I began asking people about their experience with back surgery. Even my primary care doctor said it might have to be considered. I wanted to stay as far away from the knife as possible.
Sometimes Google is magic...I began to explore other options and found many useful information on spinal decompression. It is not a quick fix. Healing takes time and patience. I am so grateful I found Dr. Boelk and staff at the Spinal Decompression and Chiropractic Center. Of course his 5 star reviews intrigued me. (and he deserves every one of those 5 star reviews).
After a consultation where I never felt rushed and I FELT HEARD I decided to commit to a treatment plan.
I am now pain free after 18 treatments. I plan to continue a maintenance routine as part of my self care goals moving forward and I'm finally feeling zero discomfort.
No meds. Just committing to Dr. Boelk's recommended treatment plan.”
Summary: Marlo overcame failed cortisone injections and chronic pain, becoming completely pain-free through Dr. Boelk’s individualized decompression program.
Kaitelyn H. – San Diego, CA
“The care I received at Dr. Boelk’s office was so wonderful. I went from having to lay down for several hours a day, to being able to live my life normally, and even began working up my exercise capacity. I always felt cared about, and there was a lot of feedback. The exercise and information Dr. Boelk provides is so critical to maintaining positive results and pain reduction with increased mobility and freedom. All the staff are so caring, and it’s one of the best decisions I made for my back!”
Summary: Kaitelyn regained independence and mobility after struggling with pain that once left her lying down for hours daily.
Michael Langsdale – San Diego, CA
“I have had a wonderful experience with Dr. Boelk and his staff at the Spinal Decompression and Chiropractic Center of San Diego. They have a great protocol and the best decompression machines. I’ve been to other places with subpar machines and didn’t get any benefit. Dr. Boelk is very attentive and cares about each person, you can see it in how he interacts with everyone. Been undergoing treatment for about 12 sessions now and the sciatica is gone and I’m almost back to normal, didn’t think it would ever heal but even after the first session I had tremendous relief and could sleep mostly pain free for the first time in months. Definitely worth the investment! Thank you!”
Summary: After trying inferior machines elsewhere, Michael finally achieved relief from sciatica and long-term back pain through DRX9000 decompression therapy.
🏡 At-Home Tips to Support Spinal Stenosis Relief
Here are a few safe, simple ways to start supporting your spine health at home before or during your treatment plan:
-
Postural Reset: Every 30 minutes of sitting, stand tall and take a few slow steps to reduce nerve pressure.
-
Gentle Movement: Walk short distances multiple times daily — motion increases nutrient flow to the discs.
-
Controlled Extension Exercise: Lie face-down and gently lift your chest with your hands under your shoulders (press-up stretch) 5–8 times daily.
-
Heat & Ice Rotation: Apply moist heat for 10 minutes, then switch to ice for 10 minutes to reduce inflammation.
-
Hydration: Aim to drink half your body weight in ounces of water daily to keep discs hydrated and flexible.
These steps don’t replace professional care but can make a meaningful difference in your daily comfort and mobility.
