Struggling with Sciatica in Parker CO?

our chiropractic clinic helps sciatica pain

The sciatic nerve is a large nerve in humans. It extends from the lower back to the buttocks and branches out down the back of the legs all the way to the feet. The most common cause of sciatica is a herniated disc. Back pain, leg pain and hip pain can arise when the inner gel of the herniated disc enters the spinal canal and irritates the sciatic nerve. Other causes of sciatica in Parker CO include pregnancy, spinal stenosis, bone spurs and pinched nerves caused by injury.


What Are The Symptoms Of Sciatica In Parker CO

Typically, the symptoms of sciatica begin in the back or buttocks and radiate down the leg. In addition to leg pain, pain may move to the feet. Numbness, tingling or weakness in the leg may also occur. Sitting and standing for long periods of time make symptoms worse. Lying down or walking may help relieve painful symptoms.

The condition of sciatica in Parker CO can be diagnosed with a full patient medical history and physical exam. At times, MRIs and X-rays may be helpful in identifying the root cause of sciatica, such as in the case of a herniated disc.

Our chiropractors always complete a comprehensive physical exam for an accurate diagnosis of sciatica. Through a series of spinal manipulations, gently moving the spinal components into the proper position to eliminate compression of the sciatic nerve. Depending on the cause of your sciatica, spinal decompression therapy may be implemented to increase space between discs. This helps remove pressure on the spinal nerves. Physical therapy is often combined into the sciatic treatment plan. Patients learn stretching exercises to help reduce impingement of the sciatic nerve. And with laser therapy, concentrated light energy penetrates the skin deeply to reduce inflammation, reduce pain and accelerate the body’s natural healing process.
