What Is Sciatica?

Sciatica is not a medical condition. Rather, it is a collection of symptoms that can occur when one of your sciatic nerves is compressed or injured. Your sciatic nerves are the two largest, thickest nerves in your body. Each nerve travels from your lower back through your butt and down one leg. The most common causes of sciatica symptoms are a lower back injury, herniated disc, bone spur, arthritis of the spine, or age-related disc degeneration. Sciatica symptoms include:

  • A burning, itching pain that radiates from your lower back down one leg
  • Numbness or weakness in your lower back, hip, butt, leg, or foot
  • A “pins and needles” feeling in your back, hip, leg, or foot
  • Muscle weakness
  • Trouble standing or walking
  • Lower back pain that increases with movement or if you laugh, sneeze, or cough

Our Chiropractic Sciatica Treatments

Dr. Marsh will treat the underlying cause of your sciatica. He will perform an exam, discuss your symptoms and lifestyle, and go over your medical history to provide a diagnosis of sciatica. He may take an x-ray, MRI, or CT scan to determine if you have a herniated disc, bone spur, or other spinal condition causing your sciatica symptoms. He can then design a personalized sciatica treatment plan. Our chiropractic treatment plans are designed to relieve pain without the use of prescription painkillers, as well as improve spinal alignment and function, restore range of motion and mobility, and improve health and quality of life. We will also help you reduce your risk of future sciatica symptoms.
