Sciatica & Nerve Pain
Treatment in Kanata
Sharp, shooting, or burning pain down your leg? We’ll identify the source and treat it at the root.
Understanding Sciatica
Sciatica is a symptom, not a diagnosis. It refers to pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness that travels along the path of the sciatic nerve, from the lower back through the buttock and down the leg. The most common causes include disc herniation pressing on a lumbar nerve root, piriformis syndrome, spinal stenosis, or other forms of nerve compression along the nerve’s path. True sciatic nerve pain can range from a dull, persistent ache to sharp, electric sensations that make sitting, walking, or sleeping difficult. It needs to be properly assessed and differentiated from other causes of leg pain before treatment begins.
Targeted Relief for Sciatic Nerve Pain
Our team assesses the full lumbar, sacral, and piriformis complex to identify precisely where and why the sciatic nerve is being irritated. From there, we build a coordinated treatment plan targeting the source, not just the symptom.
