Sciatica

The sciatica nerve runs from the body’s lower back down to the toes. As one of the longest nerves in the body, injury to the sciatica nerve can be debilitating in a way no other nerve damage is. Sciatica pain causes a variety of painful symptoms:

  • Sleep Loss / Fatigue
  • Numbness
  • Muscle Weakness
  • Tingling

When inflamed—because of injury, an auto accident, heavy lifting, or sitting in one position for a prolonged amount of time—the irritated sciatica nerve is at risk of becoming pinched.

We offer the best in physical medicine care to relieve our patients of painful symptoms.
