Sciatica Q&A

What is Sciatica?

Sciatica is radiating pain along your sciatic nerve pathway, which begins in your lower back and branches through your buttocks and each leg.

The pain often affects just one side of your body and may result from a herniated disc, spine narrowing, or a bone spur that compresses part of your nerve.

What are the symptoms of sciatica?

Sciatica often presents as one or more of the following symptoms:

Shooting pain
Pain when you cough or sneeze
Weakness
Numbness
Burning
Tingling
Radiating pain
Sharp or mild pain
An electric shock

How is sciatica diagnosed?

To help diagnose sciatica, the Complete Wellness team reviews your symptoms and medical history. They complete an exam and may have you perform specific exercises, or complete imaging tests like X-rays, MRIs, electrical impulse tests, or CT scans.

What is the treatment for sciatica?

After diagnosing the cause of chronic pain, your Complete Wellness provider may recommend one or more of the following treatments:

Heat or ice therapy - Using heat or ice therapy helps reduce inflammation and pain associated with sciatica. Try alternating heat with ice treatments.
Physical therapy - Your Complete Wellness specialist demonstrates strength exercises and stretches that offer pain relief and build strength to prevent future sciatica pain.
Chiropractic adjustments - Chiropractic adjustments involve your Complete Wellness specialist placing controlled pressure on areas of your spine to realign it and relieve stress on your sciatic nerve.
Massage - Massage helps relax you, break up tight tissues in your back, and relieve sciatic nerve pressure for pain relief.
