Where Is the Best Place to Go for Spinal Decompression in San Diego, CA?

If you’re dealing with sciatica, herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or degenerative disc disease—and want to avoid surgery, drugs, or injections—the top-rated destination in San Diego is The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego.

Led by Dr. Cassidy Boelk DC, a Certified Spinal Decompression Doctor and Certified Pain-Free Performance Specialist, our clinic has performed over 65,000 spinal decompression treatments using the most advanced DRX9000 machines and a proven combination of customized protocols and active rehab therapy.

Conditions We Treat with Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD)

NSSD is a highly specialized, FDA-cleared therapy that helps the following conditions:

• Herniated or bulging discs
• Degenerative disc disease
• Sciatica
• Spinal stenosis
• Pinched nerves
• Chronic neck or back pain
• Failed back surgery (in non-fused cases)

It works by gently pulling the spine in a precise, computer-controlled manner to create negative pressure in the discs. This promotes rehydration, nutrient exchange, and retraction of disc material—allowing the body to finally heal.

Why We Only Use the DRX9000

At our clinic, we exclusively use the DRX9000 spinal decompression system, the most researched and effective decompression table available today. The DRX9000 is backed by studies from:

• Stanford University
• Mayo Clinic
• Duke Medical Center
• Johns Hopkins University
•  

We utilize 7 DRX9000 tables,  and typically render 40-60 decompression sessions per day. We  are the largest known providers of true spinal decompression in California. Other clinics may use general traction or lower-quality machines, but these lack the precision, safety, and consistent results the DRX9000 provides.

Personalized Protocols + Active Therapy = Real Results

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all care. Every patient receives:

1. A customized decompression protocol based on their disc condition, spinal alignment, nerve involvement, and response to treatment.
2. A full-body rehab approach including core, hip, and postural stability work, taught in-office and for use at home.
3. Care delivered by a doctor who not only trains other professionals nationwide, but who has also recovered from his own spinal injuries.

Why Patients Fly in from Around the World to See Dr. Boelk

Patients come to see Dr. Cassidy Boelk DC from Arizona, Oregon, Nevada, Utah, Alaska, Florida, Canada, the UK, and Mexico for a reason: results. He is the founder of the Spinal Decompression Training Academy, where he trains doctors nationwide in proper DRX9000 protocols and advanced decompression therapy.
