Sciatica is very similar to low back pain, but with one extra symptom; pain shooting down one or both of the backs of your legs. The treatment and evaluation process is very similar to low back pain except now we narrow our focus to specific vertebrae and muscle components so help speed up your progress.

Chiropractic is effective in treating low back pain and our results in helping patients with sciatica are also good. Typically, sciatica is an impingement or interference with the sciatic nerve, which is the largest nerve in your body.

When that nerve becomes irritated by a vertebra out of place or by the surrounding muscles, the pain can become quite severe. Performing chiropractic adjustments and helping with the muscles provide noticeable relief quickly.
