Sciatica is characterized by pain running down the back of one leg or both. The pain can run just into the buttocks, down to the back of the knee or all the way down to the ankle. Dr. Brian Douglas of village family chiropractic helps people nearly everyday with sciatica become free of pain. Here are some simple exercises that we teach our patients.
The pain originates from stress to the nerves in the lower back most often. Chiropractic adjustments loosen the nerve pressure and most often resolve the problem accompanied by some simple stretching exercises. In some cases spinal discs may be bulging or herniated causing the nerve stress. If this is the case recovery may take longer or require spinal decompression therapy. Our Sagamore beach chiropractic office offers spinal decompression therapy. Spinal decompression is a technique performed on a special table that gently pulls the vertebra away from the disc relieving the nerve pressure.
