What is Sciatica?

Sciatica refers to pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness that travels from the lower back into the buttock and down the leg. Symptoms often include:

  • Sharp or shooting leg pain
  • Burning or electrical sensations
  • Numbness or tingling
  • Symptoms worse with sitting, bending, or coughing

What Causes Sciatica?

Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve becomes irritated or compressed. Common causes include:

  • Herniated or bulging discs
  • Spinal degeneration or bone spurs
  • Joint misalignment
  • Piriformis muscle tension
  • Inflammation around the nerve roots

How Chiropractic Helps Sciatica

Chiropractic care focuses on addressing the underlying mechanical issues that irritate the sciatic nerve. At Trueheart Chiropractic, your treatment plan may include:

Spinal Adjustments

Gentle, precise adjustments restore normal motion in the lumbar spine and pelvis. This reduces nerve irritation, decreases inflammation, and improves overall mobility.

Intersegmental Traction (Roller Table)

Our intersegmental traction table gently mobilizes the spine to improve flexibility, reduce muscle tightness, and increase circulation to the discs and soft tissues. Most patients find this therapy both relaxing and highly effective for sciatica-related stiffness.

Interferential Electrical Stimulation (Interferential e-stim)

Interferential e-stim uses gentle electrical currents to reduce pain, calm irritated nerves, and decrease muscle spasm. This therapy can help reduce sciatic pain quickly, especially during flare-ups. It also improves local blood flow and assists with healing.

Soft Tissue Therapy

Targeted muscle work and myofascial techniques relieve tension in the lower back, glutes, and piriformis muscle—common contributors to sciatic nerve irritation.

Home Care & Activity Guidance

Simple strategies such as posture tips, movement modifications, and stretching recommendations can help prevent flare-ups and support faster recovery.
