If you are reading this then you are either looking for help for yourself or a loved one and are in quite a bit of pain and have or suspect you may have a herniated disc. Why else would you be reading this? Unless you are researching something for a paper or another office.

We have been specializing in providing the best herniated disc treatment in San Diego CA for the past 16 years and have performed over 25,000 spinal decompression treatments during that time. We have seen some pretty amazing recoveries and witnessed first hand peoples lives completely change for the best by getting rid of their pain without undergoing injections, drugs or surgeries. 

Researched and proven highly effective for disc herniation treatment by Johns Hopkins, Stanford University and Mayo Clinic, NSSD or Nan-Surgical Spinal Decompression Therapy is repeatable and predictable. Given we have 1. The correct candidate for treatment 2. The proper protocols in place.

There are 3 main keys when dealing with a disc herniation and all are equally important and deserve proper care and respect.

1. Avoidance - there are multiple things that we do all day long that can be dramatically improved upon by all of us. For example, how do you sit to stand, how do you move your body? How do you get on and off the toilet? How do you do dishes, how do yo unload th ediswasher, how do you bend over to pick something up off the floor? These are just a couple examples of movements that can cause significant pain if done incorrectly.
2. Decompression - if the pain of a herniated disc is coming form th pressure the bones ar eplaciong on the disc and the disc then pushing upon a nerve casing the pain, then we naturally would want to “decompress” those disc to alleviate the pain. Spinal decompression is highly effective and works very well when all the factors are taken into account and before an dafter proper protocols are followed.
3. Spinal Stabilization- if we ignore that fact that the spinal muscles get weakened when we have a disc injury then we are doing our patients a disservice. Proper spinal stabilization is critical. Most doctors unfortunately do not know what to do, how often and when as far as spinal strengthening goes. 

There are multiple items in each of those 3 headings that ar not listed here and very important. IOn order to fix a disc herniation properly , the program needs to be comprehensive an detailed to allow fo Ruth proper healing to take place and get rid of th pain and keep it away.

"I found this terrific practice on social media. I followed up and did my own research so I decided to pay them a visit. The place is clean, well organized and run by a very efficient receptionist. I met with the doctor and after a honest and forthright conversation, we both determined that surgery was my only option to correct my back issues. I will return as a customer when the time is right." - Jeff J.

"Dr. Boelk & his staff are by far the BEST at spinal decompression. I walked into his office unable to sit to do my job, where I was having to lay each day & within a couple of weeks he helped me with being able to sit again. His attention to you & the way he will make you feel is unparalleled. First of all, he has suffered from some severe back issues, so his empathy is very high. Secondly, he is extremely caring & genuinely wants to help people. I've never worked with a doctor who has cared as much and made me feel like I was his only patient before. There would be 4 people there at the same time, and he still made me feel this way. I guess I just cannot thank him enough & cannot recommend him enough. He is an angel on earth. If you visit him, please listen to him & follow his instructions. He knows what's best for you. " - Erin T.

"Dr. Boelk has been a life saver. Have had constant lower back and sciatica pain for over 8 plus months, no pills helped and on track for multiple shots but with the treatment given I have found relief and down to zero pain. As a firefighter that relies on his body to help others and the results I have experienced it's totally worth looking into what Dr. Boelk can do for you." - Josh T.
