Sciatica
Sciatica is a condition characterised by pain radiating along the sciatic nerve, which runs from your lower back through your hips, buttocks, and down the leg. The pain can range from a mild ache to sharp, burning sensations and is often accompanied by numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness. Sciatica is usually caused by a herniated disc, or nerve compression due to muscle tightness or injury.
Chiropractic care offers a natural, non-invasive way to address the root cause of sciatica. Through spinal adjustments, your chiropractor can relieve pressure on the sciatic nerve, helping to reduce pain and improve mobility. In addition to adjustments, therapies like soft tissue massage and personalised stretching exercises are often used to relieve tension in surrounding muscles and prevent future flare-ups.
If you're dealing with lower back pain, shooting leg pain, or numbness, chiropractic care can help you find the relief you need. Schedule a consultation today to start feeling better and restore your mobility!
