Sciatica Treatment

What Is Sciatica?

Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve — the longest nerve in the body — becomes compressed or irritated, causing sharp, burning pain that radiates from the lower back through the buttock and down one leg. At Skandy, we treat the root cause, not just the symptoms.

Common Causes

• Herniated or bulging disc
• Bone spurs on the spine
• Spinal stenosis
• Piriformis syndrome
• Degenerative disc disease
• Pregnancy
• Prolonged sitting
• Auto or work injury

Symptoms We Treat

• Shooting pain down one leg
• Numbness or tingling in the leg or foot
• Burning sensation along the nerve path
• Weakness in the affected leg
• Lower back pain
• Pain that worsens when sitting
• Hip pain
• Difficulty standing or walking

Our Approach

We combine chiropractic adjustments, physiotherapy, and targeted spinal decompression to relieve pressure on the sciatic nerve. Our non-surgical approach reduces inflammation, restores mobility, and prevents recurrence.
