What causes Sciatica?

Sciatica is caused by a variety of factors including a bulging or herniation of a lumbar disc, degeneration of discs, spondylolisthesis, or spondylolysis, piriformis syndrome, or other causes. A herniated disc may be treated conservatively or surgically depending on the degree of pain and disability. Sciatica can be treated by chiropractors who specialize in this condition, like our doctors at Functional Chiropractic. Chiropractors can help people who suffer from sciatica by finding the source of the problem and correcting it.

When the spinal cord shifts out of position, it causes that compression, which then provokes inflammation in that part of the spine. That inflammation triggers pain on one side of the body. Walking, standing, or moving a leg may become difficult.

How Chiropractors Can Relieve Sciatica

Chiropractors can diagnose sciatica with a physical exam. We help patients manage pain caused by spinal stenosis and disc degeneration. Chiropractors can also help reduce back pain caused by injuries. We use chiropractic adjustments to relieve pressure on the nerves.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I have sciatica?

Sciatica is a painful condition that usually affects people who sit all day long. It usually begins slowly, but gets worse as time goes by. People who suffer from this condition might experience a sharp, burning sensation, or a shooting pain. Sciatica can also cause numbness, tingles, and muscle weakness in legs.

How is Sciatica Treated?

Chiropractic Care is the most effective and least invasive way to treat sciatica and its root causes. The therapy used in chiropractic care includes stretching exercises, traction, massages, and trigger point therapy. Treatment varies based on the severity of the condition and the cause. Chiropractors at Functional Chiropractic manipulate the spine to realign it, massage certain areas near the spine to help relax muscles, and guide physical therapy activities to strengthen the back and relieve pressure on the nerves.
