Sciatica can be a debilitating condition, one that stops you in your tracks randomly. For those suffering from back pain and leg pain, especially a shooting pain that can become intense very quickly, treatment from a chiropractic orthopedic, like Dr. Judith Kanzic, D.C, F.A.C.O, can give you the pain relief you need. With the help of a chiropractor, you may be able to get back to your mobility and pain-free lifestyle. We work with patients throughout Memorial, Bunker Hill Village, Spring Branch, Hedwig Village, and Houston, TX.
How Sciatica Develops and Symptoms
The sciatic nerve is a long nerve that travels from the back of your spine down into each of your legs. This nerve carries messages from those areas to your brain. Those who have shooting pain in this region may have inflammation or damage to the sciatic nerve. It takes just small misalignments of the spinal column to create intense and often debilitating pain. Your symptoms may include:
- Shooting pain down your legs
- Pain that comes and goes
- Pain that seems to worsen when you are on your feet for longer periods
- Difficulty with standing for periods of time
- Trouble with pain when sitting or lying down
Any time you have leg pain or lower back pain, it’s time to seek out care from a chiropractor.
How a Chiropractor Can Provide Pain Relief
One of the ways our chiropractor can help you to get pain relief from sciatica is by utilizing manipulation and chiropractic adjustment methods. The goal is to reduce the pressure on the sciatic nerve, therefore stopping that pain signal from miscommunicating with the brain.
With gentle force and proper massage therapy, we can help to trigger your body’s immune system to heal the damage and improve movement again. When you meet with a chiropractor, we will provide a full examination to determine if sciatica treatment is best for you. Then, we can provide an individualized treatment plan to help you.
