What Does A Barstool Have To Do With Your Pain?

Discover how Dr. Cassidy Boelk, DC, at The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, utilizes a comprehensive three-pronged approach to not only alleviate pain but to ensure it doesn't return. This method is akin to the stability provided by a three-legged bar stool, essential for both immediate relief and long-term wellness.

Identification and Modification: The first step involves a thorough examination to identify potential causes of the pain. Understanding that lifestyle, posture, or specific activities can contribute significantly, Dr. Boelk focuses on modifying these factors to prevent further aggravation of the condition.

Targeting the Root Cause: Unlike treatments that only address symptoms, Dr. Boelk's approach zeroes in on the actual source of the pain. By treating the root cause, whether it be a spinal misalignment, herniated disc, or other spinal issues, he ensures a more effective and lasting solution.

Stabilization: The final leg of the approach is about strengthening. Dr. Boelk works on stabilizing the surrounding muscles through targeted exercises and therapies. This reinforcement helps protect the area from future injuries, ensuring the pain doesn’t recur.

Just as a three-legged stool needs all its legs to stand, Dr. Boelk believes in a well-rounded plan that encompasses these principles for comprehensive care. A good clinician and doctor, like Dr. Boelk, will always aim for a thorough and thought-out plan that includes these crucial steps, ensuring that patients not only find relief from pain but also move towards a healthier, more stable future.

Severe Low Back & Neck Pain Relief In Kearny Mesa CA

Dear Dr. Boelk,

I very recently "graduated" from your program to help your patients with spinal problems.  After my last treatment on Thursday, March 21, I didn't get to thank you properly for all that you have done for me; namely, conquering my sciatica.

I feel blessed to have found you.  I believe you are a brilliant and knowledgeable doctor who truly cares about his patients.  You don't just tell your patients what to do (ice, ice, ice) you give the reasons why.  Your newsletters continue to be a source of knowledge and encouragement to me to keep with the program.

As an 80 year old suffering her third attack of sciatica and lower degenerated disks, I worried about "down the road" having to be in a wheelchair.  I no longer have that fear.  I know that if and when pain returns, you will be there for me and get me back on track for spinal health.

I am full of gratitude for the enthusiasm and dedication you have for all your patients and what you have done for me.

Thank you,

Deanna Bourke

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.

Chronic Lower Back Pain

Neck Pain

Herniated Discs

Slipped Discs

Pinched Nerves

Disc Bulges

Degenerative Disc Disease

Sciatica

Spinal Stenosis

Neuropathy

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.

*Due to demand, regardless of referral from family physician, neurologist, orthopedic surgeon or chiropractor, patients are seen on a first come first serve basis.

Dr Boelk is thorough, technical, and explains everything very well. Excellent bedside manner and all the staff are very nice. Decompression treatment is effective and I have no more neck pain." - Andre G.

"Dr. Boelk is professional and kind. He has the health of his patients as his top priority. The decompression treatments, exercises, and diet adjustments he recommended and administered have so diminished my back pain that I can sleep again. Chiropractic adjustments did not help my lower back. Decompression did. I highly recommend Dr. Boelk."- Steve R.

"Very nice Dr. and Honest ! I would definitely recommend anyone who hasn't had metal put in there back in a surgery to go to him and give his program a shot. I believe it would definitely help. Just not in my personal case. As I have a lot of hardware in my back. But I'm glad I took the time to meet with him. It was very informative all around." - Toni W., Lake Elsinore, CA

"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 to seek an additional opinion form 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.

"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, California

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 !
