Sciatica can be a debilitating condition that may limit your mobility and result in lower back pain. Not only that, but it can also become chronic without proper treatment. At Ingbretson Chiropractic in Roseville, MN, we provide various treatments to reduce your aches and help your body heal.
Understanding Sciatica
Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve becomes irritated or compressed. As a result, you may experience lower back pain that can radiate to the legs and buttocks. These symptoms can also sometimes be accompanied by numbness and tingling sensations.
Causes of Sciatica
There are several factors that can contribute to the development of sciatica. Some causes of sciatica include:
- Herniated discs
- Spinal Stenosis
- Spondylolisthesis
- Piriformis syndrome
- Obesity
- Pregnancy
Treatments for Sciatica
As specialists in chiropractic neurology, our team can help you determine the best type of treatment for your condition. We may utilize multiple techniques to alleviate your pain and improve your well-being.
For example, chiropractic adjustments are often used when treating sciatica. The adjustments can help correct misalignments and take pressure off of the sciatica nerve. Not only that, but they can also prevent injuries from reoccurring. Our chiropractor might teach you therapeutic exercises as well to make your back muscles stronger and increase your range of motion. Additionally, we’ll recommend ways to improve your posture and habits to avoid to prevent symptoms from worsening.
Each of our treatments are safe and non-invasive, so medications and surgery are not needed to help you heal. After you’ve recovered, we encourage you to visit us for maintenance care so we can resolve any issues quickly.
