Sciatica treatment

Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve — the longest nerve in the body — is compressed or irritated, causing pain, numbness, or tingling that radiates from the lower back through the hips and legs. It can result from a herniated disc, spinal misalignment, or muscle tightness in the piriformis. Auto accidents and sports injuries are common triggers. Chiropractic care relieves this pressure naturally without drugs or surgery.

Symptoms You May Experience

  • Shooting pain from lower back through hip and down the leg
  • Burning or tingling sensation in the leg or foot
  • Numbness or weakness in the affected leg
  • Pain that worsens when sitting
  • Difficulty standing up or walking
  • Sharp pain when coughing or sneezing

Treatment Methods

  • Spinal adjustments to relieve nerve pressure
  • Custom orthotics for alignment support
  • Targeted exercises and stretches
  • Electrical stimulation (e-stim)
  • Therapeutic ultrasound
