Symptoms of Sciatica

The most common symptoms associated with sciatica are as follows:

• Numbness, weakness or problems when you try to move your foot
• Shooting sensation that may keep you from standing up 
• Pain in the buttocks or leg that increases when you sit down
• Pain that persists on one side of the buttocks
• Tingling or burning feelings that spread down your leg

How a Chiropractor Can Help Your Sciatica

Pain associated with sciatica is caused by sciatic nerve compression. Sciatica can occur when people grow obese, fail to exercise regularly or even when spending too much time lounging on a very soft couch or bed (lack of proper support). It also happens because of bulging or herniated discs (you may have heard of these being referred to as “slipped discs.”) A chiropractor has a number of options to treat you and bring relief.

Each patient will get a unique, customized treatment plan when coming in to see the professionals at Senf Chiropractic of Atlanta. Your chiropractor may begin by using cold therapy to cut down on inflammation and reduce pain from sciatica. 

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation is another option, which uses varying levels of electrical current to alleviate muscle spasms.

In addition, chiropractors make spinal adjustments after diagnosing a patient with a case of sciatica. By manipulating the spinal area, the chiropractor brings it back into alignment and this helps to reduce inflammation as well as irritation of the nerves.
