Typically caused by pressure on the sciatic nerve, sciatica may lead to pain in the lower back, legs, and hips. Fortunately, many chiropractic treatment methods effectively alleviate the pains associated with sciatica.
What Chiropractic Treatments Help?
Spinal Manipulation
Spinal manipulations, also known as adjustments, aid in properly aligning the spine and reducing pressure on the sciatic nerve.
Ultrasound
Utilizing high-frequency sound waves, ultrasound stimulates a deep heat, reducing pain and inflammation while promoting healthy blood flow.
Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) Therapy
TENS therapy, commonly referred to as electric stim therapy, delivers a safe level of electrical impulses to the affected area, reducing any swelling and inflammation.
