Sciatica Treatment
Fast, Effective Relief from Radiating Leg Pain Without Surgery
Sciatica is a common but often misunderstood condition that can cause sharp, radiating pain from the lower back down through the leg. At Kaizo Health, we specialize in diagnosing and treating the root causes of sciatic nerve irritation using advanced, evidence-based chiropractic and rehabilitative techniques—helping you move better, feel better, and live pain-free.
What Is Sciatica?
Sciatica refers to irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve—the longest nerve in the body—that originates in the lower spine and travels down the back of each leg. Sciatica is a symptom, not a condition in itself, and is usually caused by underlying issues such as herniated discs, spinal misalignments, or muscular dysfunctions.
Common Symptoms of Sciatica
-
Sharp, burning, or shooting pain in the lower back, buttocks, or legs
-
Numbness or tingling down one leg
-
Muscle weakness in the affected leg or foot
-
Pain that worsens with prolonged sitting or standing
-
Discomfort while walking, bending, or lifting
Causes of Sciatica
Sciatic nerve compression can be caused by:
-
Herniated or bulging spinal discs
-
Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)
-
Piriformis syndrome
-
Misalignments of the spine or pelvis
-
Degenerative disc disease
-
Pregnancy-related postural changes
-
Prolonged sitting or poor movement patterns
