Effective Treatment for Sciatica Pain
Sciatica is known as the pain that radiates down the leg, along the path of the sciatic nerve. The sciatica nerve branches from the lower back, through the hips and buttocks, and down each leg. Sciatica most commonly occurs when a herniated disk, bone spur on the spine or narrowing of the spine (spinal stenosis) puts pressure on the nerve. This causes inflammation, pain and often numbness in the affected leg.
The pain associated with sciatica can be severe. The most effective treatments for sciatica focus on reducing inflammation around the sciatic nerve with nonsurgical methods. This may include some combination of Chiropractic care, an anti-inflammatory diet and supplements, BEMER vascular therapy, and Low Level Cold Laser.
At Foresight Wellness and Sports Center, these are some of the best ways we have found to effectively treat painful sciatica issues:
1. Chiropractic
Chiropractic care helps to address the underlying conditions that can cause sciatic nerve pain. Gentle and precise adjustment of the spine, performed by an Atlas Orthogonal upper cervical specialist, improves the alignment of the spine, and balances the central nervous system. These spinal adjustments reduce stress on the nervous system and create a healthy healing environment, and are very effective, safe and non-invasive.
2. BEMER vascular therapy enhances nutrient and oxygen delivery, local blood flow, waste removal, muscle conditioning, stress reduction and relaxation, and the relief of aches and pains. BEMER is an FDA Class II Medical Device that increases blood flow through the micro circulation – and it is available at Foresight Chiropractic for on-site sessions, rental and purchase. Improved circulation helps reduce inflammation and plays a critical role in our overall health and well-being.
3. Low Level Cold Laser treatment works to heal, reduce inflammation and pain. Targeted treatment has proven to be very beneficial when combined with Chiropractic care and BEMER therapy.
