Chiropractic Is Successful at Treating Sciatica

One of the main reasons a patient comes to see one of our chiropractic doctors is to treat low back pain caused by sciatica. Sciatica is when a patient experiences radiating symptoms of numbness, tingling, or pain down the length of their leg. The cause of sciatica can be from a lower lumbar disc protruding onto the sciatic nerve or from the piriformus muscle in the buttocks clamping down on it. The sciatic nerve is one of the largest and longest nerves in your body and supplies motor (musculoskeletal) innervation from your hips all the way down to your toes. Our chiropractors will assess which mechanism is causing the sciatic problem followed by precise manipulations and therapy to treat the issue. Making sure the pelvic girdle and its articulating counterparts are in balance is crucial to help treat sciatica pain and symptoms.  If this sounds like something that is happening in your body, set up an appointment today- the sooner the problem is addressed, the quicker patients respond to care.
