The Reasons You Should Choose Chiropractic Care for Sciatica

June 15, 2015 By Renee White

chiropractic care for sciaticaSciatica is a health condition that usually describes weakness, tingling, pain or numbness in a person’s legs. The pain that is felt in the legs can feel very similar to a leg cramp, but once the pain begins to travel up and down the leg, it can be difficult for a person to comfortably sit or stand. The pain can develop quickly or over time and can be more intense when a person coughs or sneezes. It is a chronic pain condition, and chiropractic care for sciatica can effectively treat the condition.

What Is The Goal Of Chiropractic Care Treatment For Sciatica?

The primary goal for this type of care is to allow the body the opportunity to heal on its own. Chiropractic care for sciatica also focuses on the principle that restricted movements of the spine can lead to intensity in the location and level of pain a patient feels. Restricted movements can also reduce function and performance. However, chiropractic care offers you the chance to alleviate your sciatica symptoms without the use of dangerous medications and invasive treatments.

The Different Chiropractic Therapies Used To Treat Sciatica

There are several therapies that chiropractors regularly use to treat sciatica. The personalized treatment plan for your sciatica will be based on your particular symptoms. The chiropractor may also decide to include more than one therapy to treat you for your sciatica pain.

Spinal adjustments are a very popular therapy for a variety of health conditions and are the core of this type of care. These adjustments will also help to realign the spine and reduce any pressure that is on the nerves. Pressure and irritability in the nerves is responsible for spasms, inflammation, pain and other sciatica related symptoms.

Ultrasound therapy uses sound waves to treat deep tissues. This type of therapy can reduce pain and inflammation. Circulation can be increased with regular ultrasound therapy while cramps and stiffness can be eliminated.

Ice therapy and cold therapy can also be used to reduce inflammation. This is also a therapy that patients can apply at home to reduce pain and swelling.

Chiropractic care for sciatica can effectively treat the debilitating symptoms associated with sciatica. Long term results can be enjoyed with chiropractic care so you can resume activities you once enjoyed. Work with a reputable chiropractor to find a treatment plan best suited for your needs.
