Non-Surgical Pain Relief for Spinal Stenosis in San Diego, CA
If you’ve been diagnosed with spinal stenosis and are searching for effective, non-surgical pain relief, you’re not alone. At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, we specialize in helping patients manage and overcome spinal stenosis through Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) and a comprehensive treatment approach.
What is Spinal Stenosis?
Spinal stenosis is a condition in which the spaces within your spine narrow, putting pressure on the spinal cord or nerves. This can lead to a variety of symptoms, including:
- Chronic back or neck pain
- Numbness, tingling, or weakness in the arms or legs
- Difficulty walking or standing for long periods
- Loss of balance or coordination
How Does Spinal Stenosis Develop?
Spinal stenosis often develops gradually due to aging and degenerative changes in the spine. Factors contributing to the condition include:
- Disc degeneration
- Bone spurs
- Thickened ligaments
- Herniated discs
- Trauma or injury
These structural changes can reduce the space available for nerves, causing pain and discomfort.
Why Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) Works
At our clinic, we use FDA-cleared DRX 9000 machines, the most advanced spinal decompression systems available. These machines are highly researched and have been proven effective in relieving pressure on the spine. Here's how NSSD helps:
-
Relieves Nerve Compression:
The DRX 9000 gently stretches the spine, creating negative pressure within the discs. This helps reduce bulging or herniated discs, alleviating pressure on nerves. -
Promotes Healing:
By restoring proper spinal alignment and increasing blood flow, NSSD accelerates the body’s natural healing process. -
Improves Mobility and Function:
Patients often experience significant improvements in mobility and a reduction in pain after just a few sessions.
Why We Exclusively Use the DRX 9000
While the DRX 9000 is considered the gold standard for spinal decompression, achieving excellent results requires more than just using the best machines. It’s crucial to know exactly how to use them and to personalize treatments for each patient’s unique condition.
At our clinic, we tailor every decompression session based on:
- The severity and location of spinal stenosis
- The patient’s overall health and activity level
- Progress and feedback throughout treatment
This individualized approach is why we achieve such high success rates and why patients drive and fly hundreds or even thousands of miles to seek help from Dr. Cassidy Boelk, DC.
