Sciatica isn’t a condition itself, but a symptom of an underlying issue (like a herniated disc or piriformis syndrome). Common signs include:
Radiating Pain: A sharp or burning sensation traveling from the lower back through the buttock and down one leg.
Numbness or Tingling: A “pins and needles” feeling in the foot or toes.
Weakness: Difficulty moving the leg or “foot drop.”
Worsening with Movement: Pain that intensifies when coughing, sneezing, or sitting for long periods
Your first session includes a thorough physical examination to identify the root cause of your issue. We discuss your goals and create a bespoke recovery roadmap.
Using a combination of manual "hands-on" therapy and functional exercise, we focus on immediate pain relief and long-term prevention.
Track your recovery via our patient portal. We adjust your plan as you get stronger, ensuring you reach your peak performance.
