Sciatica Treatment

SKU: ST4785

Sciatica is a condition characterized by pain radiating from the lower back down through the buttocks and legs along the sciatic nerve. This common cause of lower back pain affects daily activities and can lead to weakness, tingling, or numbness in the leg

Highlights

Symptoms:
Recognize early signs of sciatica to prevent worsening symptoms. These may include:

  • Sharp, burning, or shooting pain radiating from the lumbar spine to the thigh and calf
  • Numbness or tingling sensations in the leg or foot (paresthesia)
  • Muscle weakness or difficulty moving the leg or foot
  • Pain aggravated by prolonged sitting, standing, or sudden movements
  • Reduced reflexes in the knee or ankle
If these symptoms affect your quality of life, professional physiotherapy can provide targeted pain management and functional improvement.
Causes:
Sciatica results from irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve due to:

  • Herniated (slipped) lumbar disc causing nerve root impingement
  • Lumbar spinal stenosis — narrowing of the spinal canal
  • Degenerative disc disease leading to nerve inflammation
  • Piriformis syndrome, where the muscle compresses the nerve
  • Traumatic injury or poor posture habits
  • Prolonged sedentary lifestyle or repetitive strain
Identifying the underlying cause is crucial for effective treatment and prevention of sciatica flare-ups.
Diagnosis:
Our physiotherapists conduct a detailed assessment focusing on:

  • Pain distribution and severity
  • Neurological function including muscle strength and reflexes
  • Movement limitations and posture analysis
Treatment:Our comprehensive physiotherapy treatment plan combines multiple evidence-based approaches to relieve sciatica symptoms and restore function.
