How We Treat It
Sciatica happens when the sciatic nerve is irritated—usually at the spine, in the glutes, or along its path down the leg. Our approach focuses on calming the nerve, restoring motion, and teaching you how to move without aggravating it.
Our approach includes:
Chiropractic Adjustments: Free up stuck joints and relieve pressure on nerve roots.
Soft Tissue Therapy: Address tight muscles like the piriformis, glutes, hamstrings, and spinal stabilizers.
Dry Needling: Reduce muscle tension and irritation around the nerve pathway.
Shockwave Therapy: Useful in chronic cases involving tendinopathy or soft tissue inflammation.
Rehabilitation Exercises: Focus on nerve glides, core control, hip mobility, and safe strength progression.Benefits to you:
Reduced leg pain, numbness, or tingling
Improved comfort while sitting, walking, or sleeping
Better strength and control through the core and hips
