What is sciatica, and how is it treated?

Sciatica is not a disease or injury. Rather, it is the unique set of symptoms that may develop when the sciatic nerve – the largest and longest nerve in the body – becomes compressed by a bulging disc, bone spur, or shifting vertebra. This nerve runs from the lower spine and splits to travel down both legs and into the feet. When the sciatic nerve is compressed, it may trigger radiating pain, numbness, tingling sensations, and muscle weakness in the low back or throughout the lower body.

Each patient’s ideal course of sciatica treatment will vary according to the severity of the nerve compression, the age and activity level of the patient, and several other factors. At Physicians Rehabilitation, our patients benefit from individualized treatment plans that include advanced methods like tailored physical therapy, chiropractic care, spinal decompression, and minimally invasive nerve block procedures. Unlike some other orthopedic centers, we avoid jumping to surgery or suggesting a never-ending regimen of potent medications.
