Why Choose Our Spinal Decompression Center?

Guide to Selecting the Best Spinal Decompression Center

1. Does the Office Specialize in Spinal Decompression?
   Many clinics offer spinal decompression as just one of many treatments they provide, but specialization matters. Effective spinal decompression requires focused expertise and daily application.
   At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, we specialize in Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD). We perform 40-50 decompression sessions every day and have over 20 years of experience with more than 50,000 sessions performed.
   Beware of clinics that treat only a handful of patients a day on decompression; true expertise comes from regular, focused practice.
2. Are Treatments Performed by the Doctor or Staff?
   Spinal decompression is not a one-size-fits-all approach. The process requires individualized protocols based on the patient’s specific condition, and adjustments must be made during the treatment process.
   At our center, Dr. Cassidy Boelk DC, a Certified Spinal Decompression Doctor, personally performs every spinal decompression session. He carefully determines all settings and ensures treatments are tailored to each patient.
   Treatments should never be painful—our goal is for patients to feel relief and comfort during their sessions.
3. Is the Doctor Certified?
   Certification indicates that the doctor has taken the time to learn, understand, and master the art and science of spinal decompression.
   Dr. Cassidy Boelk DC is a Certified Spinal Decompression Doctor, and his decades of experience allow him to refine protocols to achieve the best outcomes.
   Be cautious of offices where certification is absent or where decompression treatments are handled solely by staff without proper training.
4. Does the Office Combine Active Therapy with Spinal Decompression?
   Passive therapy alone is not enough to provide long-term relief. While spinal decompression relieves pressure on the discs and nerves, active therapy is essential to stabilize the spine, strengthen core muscles, and address underlying imbalances.
   At our center, we combine spinal decompression with customized active therapy programs to prevent future issues and enhance recovery.
   Clinics that rely solely on passive decompression may not deliver the same high success rates as those that integrate active rehabilitation.
5. Does the Office Have a Good Reputation?
   Look for consistent, positive feedback from patients about the doctor, staff, and overall care.
   Check reviews for mentions of the doctor’s compassion, expertise, and dedication to helping patients achieve their goals.
   At our center, patient care is our priority, and we pride ourselves on building trust and long-term relationships with those we serve.
6. What Equipment Is Being Used?
   Not all decompression tables are created equal. For true spinal decompression to occur, the table must create negative intradiscal pressure to promote healing, rehydrate discs, and reduce herniations.
   We exclusively use DRX9000 machines, the most advanced spinal decompression systems available. With 7 DRX9000 machines (4 for the lower back and 3 for the neck), we ensure precise, customizable treatments tailored to each patient’s unique needs.
   Be cautious of clinics using inversion tables or basic traction devices that cannot create the same negative pressure or achieve the same results.
7. How Much Experience Does the Office Have?
   When it comes to spinal decompression, experience matters. The more treatments performed, the greater the expertise and understanding of how to handle a wide range of conditions.
   With over 20 years of experience, our office has conducted more than 50,000 decompression sessions, refining our protocols to deliver exceptional results.
   Beware of newer clinics or those without a proven track record of success.
8. Are They Focused on Patient-Centered Care?
   Choose a clinic where the doctor and staff prioritize your needs, focus on long-term solutions, and build trust through transparent communication.

At our center, we prioritize reasonable fees, fewer initial visits, and treatments designed to deliver real results. Our patient-first approach ensures trust, rapport, and long-term success. Avoid clinics that pressure patients into excessive visits or focus solely on high-cost treatments rather than building lasting solutions. By considering these factors, you can ensure you’re selecting a spinal decompression center that combines cutting-edge technology, personalized care, and proven expertise to help you find relief and avoid surgery.
