Severe Sciatica Pain Relief in Kearny Mesa, CA
Looking for some help with your sciatica pain? If you’re suffering from severe sciatica pain, you’re not alone. Sciatica is a debilitating condition that can make even the simplest tasks feel impossible. But there’s good news: at The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, we specialize in helping patients find long-lasting relief without the need for surgery or medications.
What is Sciatica?
Sciatica refers to pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve, which runs from your lower back through your hips, buttocks, and down each leg. It’s often caused by compression or irritation of the nerve, commonly due to herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or piriformis syndrome. Symptoms can range from a dull ache to sharp, shooting pain, along with numbness, tingling, or weakness in the affected leg.
Why Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) Helps
Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) is an FDA-cleared therapy designed to relieve pressure on the spinal discs and nerves. Unlike other treatments that merely mask the pain, NSSD targets the root cause by gently stretching the spine and creating negative pressure within the discs. This process:
- Rehydrates the discs, promoting healing.
- Reduces nerve compression, alleviating pain and inflammation.
- Improves spinal alignment, addressing the mechanical issues contributing to sciatica.
Many of our patients experience significant pain relief after just a few sessions, making NSSD a game-changer for those who have tried other treatments without success.
The Importance of Active Therapy for Long-Term Relief
While NSSD is incredibly effective, it’s only part of the solution. To achieve long-term pain relief, we also incorporate active therapy into our treatment plans. Active therapy includes:
- Stability exercises to strengthen the core and hips.
- Postural correction to prevent future nerve compression.
- Flexibility and mobility work to improve spinal and hip function.
Without addressing muscle imbalances and weak areas, the pain is likely to return. Treating only the symptoms without fixing the underlying issues is like putting a band-aid on a deeper problem.

"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, San Diego
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

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.

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.

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 !
