Sciatica Treatment and Chiropractic Care

People who suffer from sciatica can be in a lot of pain and it might prevent them from doing certain activities. The pain can become so intense it negatively impacts a person's quality of life, making it challenging to get out of bed. Seeing a chiropractor for sciatica treatment can help alleviate the pressure on the nerve, potentially providing pain relief. We at Regenerative Health and Chiropractic, LTD, in Granite City, IL, offer chiropractic care to help with sciatica. 

Does Sciatica Cause Hip Pain? 

Sciatica can cause hip pain. The sciatic nerve runs from the lower back through the hips and legs, so it can cause pain in those areas when it becomes compressed or irritated. Sciatic nerve pain is often felt in the lower back, hips, and legs, ranging from mild to severe. See a chiropractor on our chiropractic care team if you are experiencing sciatica symptoms. We can help provide a proper diagnosis and recommend treatment options.

Can Sciatica Resolve on Its Own? 

Sciatica is a painful condition. In some cases, it can resolve on its own without any treatment. However, it can be important to seek pain relief if the pain persists or worsens.

Do I Need Medical Treatment for Sciatica? 

If you are experiencing severe pain or weakness in your legs, it can be important to get help. While a doctor might supply medication or advise surgery, a chiropractor on our team can help you to get pain relief and pain management without needing to rely on drugs or surgery.

How Can a Chiropractor Help with Sciatica? 

If you are experiencing sciatica, a chiropractor on our chiropractic care team can help by examining your spine and identifying any misalignments or nerve compressions that may be causing your symptoms. Gentle adjustments and other holistic techniques can help realign your spine, relieve pressure on your nerves, and reduce inflammation in the affected area. Chiropractic care can also help improve your overall spinal health, potentially reducing your risk of future sciatica flare-ups. A chiropractor on our team may also recommend exercises and lifestyle changes to support your healing and prevent future injury.
