About sciatica care at our clinic
Sciatica describes pain that travels from the lower back or buttock down the leg, often with tingling or numbness. It can be intense and frightening, but many cases improve over time with the right guidance.
- Leg-dominant pain. Sciatica usually hurts more in the leg than in the back.
- Nerve testing. Reflexes, sensation and strength are checked at your first visit.
- Referral when needed. Some cases need imaging or a medical opinion — we will tell you.

When to see someone else first
Worsening leg weakness, numbness in the saddle area or bladder or bowel changes need urgent medical attention, not a chiropractic appointment.
