Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve your body’s longest nerve becomes compressed or irritated, often due to a herniated disc or spinal misalignment. This can cause sharp, shooting pain that radiates from the lower back down the leg, along with numbness or tingling.

How Chiropractic Helps: Chiropractors use gentle spinal adjustments to reduce pressure on the sciatic nerve, improve spinal alignment, and restore natural movement. Many patients experience relief without the need for medication or invasive procedures.

Bonus Benefit: Chiropractic care not only eases sciatica pain but also helps prevent future flare-ups by addressing the root cause, not just the symptoms.
