Treating sciatica effectively.
Radiating pain from the buttock down into the leg can severely impact daily life. We find the cause and treat it at the root.
Book appointmentWhat's behind it?
Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve — the longest nerve in the body — is irritated or compressed, often by a herniated disc or spinal canal stenosis. The pain radiates from the lower back through the buttock and into the leg. We diagnose the exact cause and create an individual treatment plan that addresses both the acute pain and the underlying problem.
Causes
- Herniated disc with nerve compression
- Narrowing of the spinal canal (spinal stenosis)
- Piriformis syndrome (muscle tension in the buttock)
- Blockages in the lumbar spine
Symptoms
- Radiating pain from the buttock into the leg
- Numbness or tingling in the leg or foot
- Pain worsening when sitting or bending
- Feeling of weakness in the affected leg
