sciatica is hunching over many of your colorado springs neighborsSciatica is a pain in the a#@, literally. It is often described as a burning or shooting pain that starts in the low back and radiates down the buttock and into the leg, sometimes reaching the foot.
Patients suffering from Sciatica hunch, because they are trying to compensate and decompress the area in their back where the nerve is being interfered. Sciatica - even Sciatica that seems to start in the buttock - is commonly caused by a herniated disc in the low back that is pressing on a nerve and causing nerve pain. Occasionally Sciatica can have a muscular cause. The solution is quite simple, most of the time: remove pressure on the nerve and the Sciatica symptoms go away. We do that using several techniques, primarily ART, Chiropractic, spinal decompression therapy, and/or laser therapy. We have a very high success rate, helping patients get pain free and regain their upright posture. |
