Can Chiropractic Care Help with Sciatica?

Sciatica will affect as many as 40% of adults at some point in their lives. If you’ve ever experienced sciatica symptoms, you know how uncomfortable they can be. This condition occurs when the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back down to the legs, becomes irritated or compressed. The pain can be sharp, shooting, or even burning, making it difficult to perform everyday activities. While there are several treatment options for sciatica, one effective method is chiropractic care.

Chiropractic Care at Alliance Orthopedics

Chiropractic care is a holistic approach to healthcare that focuses on the musculoskeletal system, particularly the alignment of the spine, and its impact on the nervous system. Chiropractors use hands-on techniques to manipulate the spine, joints, and muscles to relieve pain and improve overall function. At Alliance Orthopedics, our experienced chiropractors are trained in a variety of modalities to ensure the best results for each patient.

Whether you’re seeking relief from sciatica symptoms or want to maintain optimal health, we can provide the care and treatment you need. Here are some ways chiropractic care at Alliance orthopedics can help treat sciatica:

Chiropractic Massage Therapy

Chiropractic massage therapy can be a useful tool in relieving sciatica. This technique involves applying pressure to specific points on the body to release tension and reduce inflammation. This type of massage can help increase blood flow and oxygen to the affected area, which may promote healing and reduce pain. Sciatica is a result of a compressed nerve, and chiropractic massage may help loosen the tension around the nerve to successfully treat sciatica symptoms.

Chiropractic Adjustments

One of the most common chiropractic care techniques used to treat sciatica symptoms is spinal adjustments. This technique involves manipulating the spine to realign vertebrae that may have become misaligned due to a wide variety of causes. When the spine is restored to proper alignment, it can reduce pressure felt on the sciatic nerve. During an adjustment, the chiropractor may also use other techniques, such as hot and cold therapy, to further reduce inflammation.

Spinal Decompression

Spinal decompression gently stretches the spine to reduce pressure on the discs, joints, and nerves. This helps decrease pain and improve overall function. Additionally, decompressing the spine allows nutrient-rich fluids to flow through your spinal discs, which may promote healing and reduce inflammation. At Alliance Orthopedics, our chiropractors use the latest technology in spinal decompression therapy to ensure optimal results for our patients.

By scheduling an appointment with a chiropractor at Alliance Orthopedics, you’ll have access to the innovative DRX9000® spinal decompression system. The DRX9000® allows our doctors to adjust the amount and angle of traction to ensure the safest and most effective treatment plan for you. Spinal decompression sessions with the DRX9000® usually last 30 minutes, and many patients find spinal decompression to be a soothing experience. This modality gently stretches and lengthens the lumbar spine relieving sciatica symptoms.

Chiropractic Exercises

Along with chiropractic adjustments and massage therapy, chiropractic exercises can be an effective way to treat sciatica. Our chiropractors may recommend specific exercises to help stretch and strengthen the muscles surrounding the sciatic nerve. We will work with you to create a customized exercise plan that targets your specific needs and goals. Regular chiropractic exercise can be an essential component of a comprehensive treatment plan for sciatica. In addition to providing pain relief, chiropractic exercises may improve overall mobility, reduce stress on the spine, promote better posture, and prevent future episodes.
