What Are Common Symptoms of Sciatica?

Sciatica is a common condition, with whose name you are probably familiar, featuring symptoms like:

  • Sharp, burning pain or a dull ache running down the length of your sciatic nerve (stemming from your lower back and down your leg)

  • Numbness or tingling that follows the path of your sciatic nerve

  • Weakness in the affected leg or foot


While this condition can and often will resolve on its own, if these symptoms are affecting your day-to-day life, we recommend seeking medical or chiropractic assistance.


Common Causes Of Sciatica

  • Irritation of the sciatic nerve

  • Narrowing of the spinal canal

  • Bone spurs

  • A herniated disk in your spine


Identifying and understanding the underlying cause of your sciatica is vital to establishing a care plan. Since sciatica can stem from a variety of different spinal and nerve conditions, treating it will vary on a case-by-case basis. Undergoing a thorough evaluation will allow Dr. Matt to identify what is inflaming or placing pressure on your sciatic nerve and create a personalized care plan to help reduce your pain, restore mobility and help you avoid future flare-ups.


How Effective Is Chiropractic Care For Sciatica?

Chiropractic care is a widely recognized care path for individuals struggling with sciatica pain, since it addresses the root cause of the condition rather than focusing solely on the symptoms. Dr. Matt can help you return to your regular range of motion and alleviate the pervasive pain this condition causes with first-class treatment options like:


  • Precise spinal adjustments—gentle adjustments on your back can help realign your spine, which can significantly reduce pain and improve nerve function.

  • Soft-tissue therapy—this therapy targets tight muscles surrounding the sciatic nerve like the piriformis and fascia, reducing compression, decreasing inflammation and improving overall blood flow in the affected area.

  • Postural and lifestyle guidance—improving your spinal alignment and strengthening the supporting muscles in your legs and back—can help you regain your full mobility, decrease pain levels and reduce your risk of re-injury.


Ultimately, chiropractic care can create a real and lasting difference in the lives of individuals dealing with sciatica. By focusing on the root cause of your pain and creating a care plan that is tailored to your body and your needs, Dr. Matt makes it possible for our patients to return to their lives without the need of surgery or a strict medication regimen.
