Sciatica refers to pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve—from your lower back through your hips and buttocks and down each leg. It typically affects only one side of your body and can range from a mild ache to sharp, burning pain.
Common causes include herniated discs, bone spurs on the spine, spinal stenosis, piriformis syndrome, and degenerative disc disease. Pregnancy and prolonged sitting can also contribute.
Yes, chiropractic care is highly effective for sciatica. By addressing spinal misalignments and disc issues that compress the sciatic nerve, chiropractors can provide significant relief without surgery.
Many patients experience relief within 2-4 weeks. The duration depends on the underlying cause and severity. Dr. Mayfield will provide a personalized timeline after evaluation.
Most sciatica cases respond well to conservative chiropractic care without surgery. Surgery is typically only recommended when conservative treatments have failed and there is significant nerve damage.
Most patients experience significant relief within a few weeks. Don't let sciatica control your life.
