Sciatica Chiropractic Treatment Therapies

After assessing a patient’s individual needs, our chiropractors will develop a plan to maximize recovery efforts, dealing relief as soon as possible for the patient.

Sciatica Chiropractic Treatment with Adjustments

A cornerstone of chiropractic care, adjustments can be very effective at quickly treating sciatic nerve pain. Sometimes called spinal manipulation, these safe treatments reduce inflammation by aligning the spinal vertebra. Reducing this inflammation is key to relieving the sciatica pain quickly.

Sciatica Chiropractic Treatment with Physical Rehabilitation

Preventing ongoing damage to the nerve by strengthening the muscles that carry the skeleton, physical rehabilitation provides lasting care. Unlike many chiropractor clinics, Core Physical Medicine is able to see lasting results when treating sciatica because we also provide physical rehabilitation. Physical rehabilitation is key for sciatic pain nerve because sciatica is caused by nerve compression. Our physical rehabilitation physicians assist patients achieve long term relief by building the muscles that support the skeleton, reducing further stress and easing the compression.

Sciatica Chiropractic Treatment with TENS

Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation treats sciatica pain by stimulating the muscles that support the spinal column. The additional muscle stimulation increases blood flow which is necessary for muscle growth. Many patients see a prompt reduction in their pain level with TENS therapy. This treatment does not require a lot of time commitment or effort from the patient. We often follow chiropractic adjustments and/or physical rehabilitation with TENS.

Sciatica Chiropractic Treatment with Ice/Cold Therapy

Core Physical Medicine chiropractors may recommend a regimen of alternating ice and heat therapy as a primary and cost effective treatment for sciatica pain. We often apply this treatment while also administering TENS. Combining these two therapies speeds recovery and maximizes the patients time.

Sciatica Chiropractic Treatment with Ultrasound

Ultrasound therapy works in a similar fashion to ice/cold therapy and TENS. It uses a low energy high frequency vibration that generates heat to stimulate the affected nerves. In some situations, using ultrasound allows us to target a wide area where the patient has limited muscle mass and we may choose to include this therapy based on your body composition.
