The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego

The center is clean, relaxing, with friendly and accommodating staff. The treatments are effective and feel very nice. They are expensive though, and aren’t discussed very transparently. Usually in hushed tones, as if not to draw attention to the fact that they aren’t typically covered by insurances. I have the privilege to afford treatment and am grateful to receive them, the cost should be discussed openly and easily so that all patients can make informed decisions. Read more >

Dr Boelk and his team are life savers. My back started hurting in August 2020 which I think could’ve been from bad posture but driving. I got a MRI and all they could tell me is that I had degenerated disk and to take Tylenol.

I then tried acupuncture (which usually works for me), physical therapy ( which helped get my stronger but I still have pain, and PRP.

I loved to San Diego in July 2021 and found Dr Boelks office. He explained everything to me very clearly and made me comfortable to try something I hadn’t. After the first session I could feel my spine improve! The exercise he gave me also helped built strength while I was using the decompression machines. After about 20 sessions I saw a major change in my day to day. I could finally bend over and pick something up off the floor, sit in my car and get out of bed without pain.

Dr. Boelke is first class. I came to him with lower back pain that from time to time would cause my back to enter into a acute stage where everyday life was a struggle. I have dealt with this for years as it only happened a couple times a year with usually a one week recovery. As the years passed, the recovery time increased. I finally decided I needed more than the normal adjustments and I was recommended to Dr. Boelke. On the first visit, he developed a plan and began treatment right away. His explanations were very common sense oriented and realistic. His plan was consistent and helped shape a better dedication to my core strength. Although I have had setbacks due to my own activities, he has constantly been there to get me back to a healthy state. He has given me the best chance to avoid surgery. Thank you Dr. Boelke for your time, effort and encouragement. Read more >
