SCIATICA TREATMENT IN SOUTH BRISBANE

At Salt Chiropractic, we understand how frustrating and painful sciatica can be. Our goal is to help you find relief and regain your mobility naturally.

Are you experiencing the following?

• Sharp, shooting pain down one or both legs?

• Tingling or numbness in your lower back, buttocks, or legs?

• Weakness in your legs or feet?

• Pain that worsens with prolonged sitting or standing?

• Difficulty walking, bending, or twisting?

• Burning or aching sensations along the sciatic nerve?

Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve, which runs from your lower back through your hips and legs, becomes compressed or irritated. This condition can significantly impact your daily life, making even simple tasks challenging.

Common Causes of Sciatica

• Herniated or bulging discs

• Spinal misalignment or subluxations

• Muscle imbalances or spasms

• Prolonged sitting or poor posture

• Injuries or trauma

• Pregnancy-related pelvic changes

• Narrowing of the spinal canal (spinal stenosis)
