Sciatica
Address the Nerve, Not Just the Pain
Non-surgical care for sciatic nerve pain using spinal decompression, corrective chiropractic, and supporting therapies.
Understanding Sciatica
What It Is & Why It Happens
Sciatica is nerve pain that travels from the lower back, through the hip, and down the leg. The root cause is almost always a disc herniation, spinal misalignment, or muscle compression irritating the sciatic nerve. Masking the pain with medication does nothing for the underlying problem.
Our approach is designed to identify the specific cause and address it directly. Spinal decompression therapy gently stretches the spine to take pressure off the disc, while corrective chiropractic adjustments restore proper alignment so the nerve is no longer compressed.
Most sciatica patients respond well to this combined approach — often within 6-12 weeks — and avoid the need for injections or surgery entirely.
