Who is at Risk for Sciatica?

While sciatica can occur age any age, it is more common in adults between the ages of 40 and 50. Not only that, but excess weight, jobs that require you to sit for long periods of time, and health issues like diabetes can also contribute to sciatica.

What Causes Sciatica?

Sciatica happens when the sciatic nerve becomes irritated or compressed due to a bone spur, herniated disc, or tumor.

What are the Symptoms?

Sciatica can feel like a sharp pain that runs from your lower back through your leg. You may also experience a tingling sensation or numbness in that leg. Along with that, the discomfort can get worse when sitting or coughing.

How Can a Chiropractor Help?

Chiropractic care can be highly effective for sciatica. When you visit us, we will speak with you about your symptoms and pain level to learn more about your condition. Our chiropractors will also perform a thorough evaluation to determine the root cause of your pain. Afterward, we’ll develop a customized treatment plan that can provide relief. Your treatment may include chiropractic adjustments, spinal decompression, and stretching exercises. We will also discuss lifestyle changes, such as diet, exercise, and weight loss, with you that can eliminate your discomfort and prevent injuries from reoccurring.
