Sciatica

Sciatica

Sciatica is a painful condition that affects around 10% to 40% of the population in America. Although it is common, many people don't know they need professional treatment in order to effectively treat sciatica and prevent it from reoccurring.

.

Sciatica is incredibly debilitating, and it can be difficult to learn how to cope and live with the pain on your own. Fortunately, at Elite Chiropractic & Wellness Center, our professional staff can provide the testing and treatment you need for effective relief from sciatica. Our chiropractor in Beverly Hills will work with you every step of the way to alleviate your symptoms and prevent them from returning.

What Is Sciatica?

Sciatica is a condition that leads to lower back pain and leg pain. Sciatica is caused by the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back to either side on the outer part of the leg, becoming compressed. This leads to various symptoms, including:

  • Leg pain
  • Lower back pain
  • Tingling
  • Numbness
  • Pain upon sitting or standing for prolonged periods
  • Pain upon twisting  
  • Pins and needles feeling in the extremities

Causes of Sciatica

Sciatica occurs when the nerve is pinched either due to muscle inflammation or due to herniated or bulging discs. If you work a labor-intensive job, have had a prior injury, or have experienced sudden trauma to the spine, these can all lead to sciatica. Your chances of sciatica reoccurring can increase if you continue to work in physically intensive jobs or if you're of older age.

How A Chiropractor Can Help

If you're suffering from back pain, our chiropractor will be able to determine if it is due to sciatica or another issue. We can do so by running various tests and using x-rays and imaging tests for a thorough diagnosis. Once it is determined that your pain is due to sciatica, our chiropractor will then be able to help you feel pain relief through chiropractic treatments. These include:

  • Spinal decompression gently stretches the spine and treats bulging discs
  • Manual adjustments to re-align the spine and correct discs
  • Corrective exercises to help improve mobility and restrengthen muscles

These are just some of the many treatments that our chiropractor can provide to help you feel relief.
