"To start I never thought I would say that I would be pain free.
But Dr. Boelk worked his magic.
With his expertise and specific game plan for me, he worked wonders.
During my weekly visits he made sure to check up on me from my previous visit along with my workout from the day of.
Dr. Boelk is an athlete himself, so understands the stress and everything that comes along with working out with any exercise or sport.
He made sure to modify my workouts to work for me so I wouldn't be taking steps backwards along with his treatment.

Again pain free and never going back to pain meds.
Also with the help of his wonderful staff, they made the whole process of check ins and treatments quite easy.

Even after moving across the country he keeps up with his clients and looks out for their future." - Modesto Z.
 
"Dr Boelk saved my life! I was diagnosed with Multilevel Degenerative Back Disease. The medical back specialists recommended fusing my Cervical Spine and performing a Discectomy on my bulging disc in my lower spine. They insisted on scraping Discs - C5: C6: C7 insert cadaver bones and secure my Cervical Vertebrates with a Titanium Plate & Screws. Dr Boelk treatments on the DRX 9000 & 9000C have resulted in me avoiding any evasive operations and restoring the Health of my Cervical and Lumbar Discs. I am now PAIN FREE! I returned to my Back Surgeons and presented them with new MRI's. They concluded I didn't need any operation and wanted to know what I did. When I told them I have received treatments on the DRX 9000 they were Not Supportive and were Not Happy! I have been extremely satisfied with my results and because of my Multi-Level Cervical and Lumbar deterioration condition, I continually receive periodic DRX 9000 treatments from Dr. Boelk to help Maintain my Pain Free Status.

Dr Boelk is one of the most Honest, Informed and Caring Spinal Doctors and human beings I have ever met. His office has an amazing caring and kind staff. I owe him and his staff a tremendous amount of Respect, Gratitude & Thanks for what they have achieved with my DRX treatments in eliminating all my Back Pain!" - Cliff Gonsherry
 
 
Researched & Proven Highly Successful Through Johns Hopkins University, Stanford University, Duke Medical Center & Mayo Clinic Among Others. Spinal decompression is highly successful and effective in treating a number of conditions. These include pain associated with bulging and herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, sciatica, and even relapse or failed back surgery. The treatment enables most patients to return to pain-free, active lifestyles.
 
 
How Does Spinal Decompression Therapy Work?

Spinal decompression was developed by a team of top physicians and medical engineers to bring healing through a unique method. This therapy provides relief to chronic back and neck pain sufferers by reducing the pressure within spinal discs. As the spine’s vertebrae are slowly and gently separated, pressure is slowly reduced within discs until a negative vacuum is formed. This vacuum is shown to reduce the size of existing disc bulges or disc herniations. Significant disc bulge reduction removes pressure off the spinal nerves and dramatically reduces pain and disability.

Spinal discs are not able to receive critical components vital to proper disc health when they are injured and in a compressed state. Spinal decompression allows the spinal discs to once again receive water, oxygen and nutrients in order to properly heal, decrease pain and create long term relief.

 "Dr Boelk is highly knowledgeable and has made a difference in my life.
I have a degenerative bone issue in my lower back.  Spinal decompression is the only way that gives me relief all the way to my feet.  I highly recommend
the Spinal Decompression center." - Dee M.
 
"I decided to see Dr. Boelk after a pretty gnarly motocross neck injury. At the Hospital I was at, I felt I was getting pressured into a surgery which I refused. A friend of a friend referred him after Dr. Boelk successfully treated his broken back.
Dr. Boelk is a compassionate individual who truly cares about his patients. He looked at my MRI images, explained what he saw and potential routes for recovery. He could not treat me as I have to wait until the fracture in my neck heals, but the level of professionalism, compassion, caring and knowledge displayed by him was exceptional. He also recommended seeking an additional opinion from another neurosurgeon. My experience was that he really cares and he's not someone who would take advantage of the situation someone's in (unlike some other doctors). I will definitely be back and already recommended him to others as well! Thank you Dr. Boelk!" Jan H.

Advanced, Pain-Free Technology

With spinal decompression therapy, all motion is computer-controlled to provide gentle treatment of injured spinal discs. Decompression techniques separate slowly and cycle between brief moments of pulling and relaxing. As a result, the entire treatment remains pain-free. High success rates with spinal decompression therapy lead many to prefer it to invasive back surgery, spinal injections and pain medications. Call our office today to learn more and see if you’re a candidate for this highly successful treatment!

 

Traction & Inversion Tables Are Not The Same As Spinal Decompression

There are 3 computers on each Spinal Decompression Machine. One of the computers' sole job is to ensure that the muscles in the spine are relaxed. It accomplishes this with a positive feedback loop system. 13 Times a second, the system monitors the muscles to make sure they are not attempting to tighten and cramp. If they do attempt to tighten, the computer recognizes this and adjusts the pressure and pull to lower until the muscles are once again relaxed and then it can increase the pull once again. This way we can always keep the disc in a negative pressure state which is not possible with inversion or traction machines.

With true spinal decompression, we can get water, oxygen and nutrients into the disc itself while flushing out swelling and inflammation which is adding to the pain. With traction and inversion tables the spinal muscles are unable to fully relax and thus they stay somewhat activated which then prevents the discs from getting into a negative pressure and healing properly and getting rid of the pain as much as possible.

"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
 
Rated the #1 Spinal Decompression office in San Diego for many reasons. Here is a quick guide to finding the best office when searching for Spinal Decompression:


1. Does the office specialize In Spinal Decompression or is it just one of many multiple treatments they offer? We have seen many patients come from other offices who said they are specialists and experts in spinal decompression but only treat 3 or 4 patients a day on decompression.

2. Is the doctor or staff actually getting the patients on the treatments? Spinal Decompression is a specialized skill and requires daily decision making and protocols vary from person to person, it is not a one size fits all approach. Many patients come from different offices and inform us they were getting decompression but it was done by the staff and many times they are in pain when on the tables. The treatments should not be painful but feel good.

3. Is the doctor Certified? There are many doctors who are utilizing spinal decompression who are not certified. It is best to see someone who took the time and learned the process and is certified.

4. Do they have a good reputation and reviews that report the doctor and office and staff are looking out for the patient and there is a common theme of the doctor caring and wanting the best for their patients?

5. Experience? How long has the office been utilizing spinal decompression? How many sessions have they performed? You want to see someone who has a lot of experience and knowledge in their field when looking for spinal decompression offices.

Hi my name is Mercedes Bautista.  I found out about this treatment on the internet and I came because I was searching for a doctor for my friend.  I have always had low back problems, so Dr. Boelk suggested that I have an MRI done.  I decided to go ahead and do it and what I found out was astonishing. Dr. Boelk told me I had a bulging disc and that my discs were dehydrated.

I went home very surprised and even scared.

That night with my husband I cried.  My husband and I both talked about it and decided that the finances were worth getting my back fixed.  The next thing we had to figure out was how I was going to get here, because I live in El Centro.

 

So we decided we were going to rent a car and I travel here 4 times a week.  The girls here are wonderful and very awesome.  They make you feel like family, it’s an extremely relaxing environment.  I feel better and I have recommended this treatment to my family and friends.  Thank You !
