We at Precision Chiropractic Clinic in Northridge, CA, understand the toll sciatica can take on your daily activities. From work to play, the pain can sideline productivity and enjoyment. Here, we offer information on sciatica and how chiropractic care with Dr. Villarreal can help you overcome this painful issue.

What Is Sciatica?

Sciatica is not a condition but a symptom of an underlying problem. Symptoms occur when the large sciatic nerve running from the lower back through the buttocks and down each leg becomes compressed or irritated.

Common causes of sciatica include herniated or bulging discs, spinal canal narrowing, or degenerative disc disease. The nerve can also become pinched from twisting, bending, or the stress pregnancy puts on the lower back.

What Symptoms Can Sciatica Cause?

Sciatica most generally affects only one side of the body. Common symptoms may include lower back pain, hip pain, and leg pain. The discomfort radiates, and it can be sharp, burning, or shooting.

You may experience numbness or tingling along the affected leg, weakness in the leg or foot, and difficulty standing or walking. The pain may worsen after prolonged sitting or standing or leave a constant ache in the affected area.

How Can Chiropractic Adjustment Help?

Chiropractic care offers a holistic, drug-free approach to sciatica treatment. Dr. Villarreal at Precision Chiropractic Clinic uses various techniques to address the root cause of your sciatica pain.

• Spinal Adjustments: Gentle manipulations realign the spine, reducing pressure on the sciatic nerve and surrounding tissues.
• Decompression Therapy: This technique can help relieve pressure on the affected discs and nerves.
• Soft Tissue Therapy: Massage and other techniques relax tight muscles and ease nerve compression.
• Corrective Exercises: Customized stretches and exercises strengthen the back's supporting muscles and improve flexibility.

Our comprehensive approach aims to relieve your pain and address the underlying causes.
