Understanding and Treating Sciatica at The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego
Sciatica is a common condition characterized by pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve, which extends from the lower back down through the hips, buttocks, and legs. This debilitating pain can significantly impact your ability to enjoy daily activities and maintain an active lifestyle.

How Sciatica Develops
Sciatica typically arises when the sciatic nerve is irritated or compressed. The most frequent cause of this compression is a herniated disc or bone spur on the spine which presses against the nerve. Other factors such as muscle tension, spinal alignment issues, and lifestyle choices can exacerbate this condition.

The development of sciatica is closely linked to the mechanical and compressive forces within the spine. When spinal discs, which act as cushions between the vertebrae, are pushed out of their normal position or degenerate over time, they can impinge on the nearby nerves. This impingement directly irritates the nerve, causing inflammation, pain, and often, numbness along the nerve's pathway.

Why Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) Is Effective
At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, led by Dr. Cassidy Boelk, DC, a Certified Spinal Decompression Doctor and a Certified Pain Free Performance Specialist, we specialize in addressing the root cause of sciatica using Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD). This treatment approach is designed to alleviate the pressure on the spinal discs and nerves without the need for invasive procedures.

NSSD uses state-of-the-art decompression technology to gently stretch the spine, creating a negative pressure within the disc (vacuum effect). This effect helps the herniated or bulging disc material to retract, reducing pressure on the sciatic nerve and promoting the movement of water, oxygen, and nutrient-rich fluids into the discs so they can heal naturally.
