Understanding Sciatica and Its Causes

Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve – the longest nerve in your body becomes irritated or compressed, often from spinal misalignment, disc herniation, or muscle tension. This compression creates pain, numbness, or tingling that radiates down one or both legs.

Common causes of sciatica include:

Lumbar disc herniation pressing on the sciatic nerve root
Piriformis muscle tension compresses the nerve in the gluteal region
Spinal misalignment is creating lower back instability
Degenerative disc disease or arthritis, narrowing of spinal pathways
Postural imbalance or occupational stress damaging lower spinal structures

Dr. Freeman’s full – spine evaluation identifies the exact cause of nerve irritation, creating a customized plan for pain relief and functional recovery.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr Freeman is the best. He has kept me upright and moving after being rear ended 3 time. Update: I now have a severe form of D.I.S.H Arthritis which causes a lot of pain. Dr Freeman keeps my spine and neck moving so I don't freeze up which could put me in a wheel chair. If it wasn't for Dr Freeman and his staff I am not sure I would be-able to keep moving as well as I do.

FAQ's for Sciatica Treatment

What exactly is sciatica pain?

Sciatica refers to pain caused by compression of the sciatic nerve, often producing sharp, burning, or radiating sensations down the leg, sometimes accompanied by tingling or weakness.

Can chiropractic adjustments relieve sciatica pain?

Yes. Chiropractic care relieves nerve pressure and restores spinal mobility, addressing the root cause of inflammation and radiating leg pain naturally.

How long does it take to recover from sciatica?

Mild cases may improve within weeks, while severe or chronic conditions may require several months of structured care and rehabilitation.

Is chiropractic safe if my sciatica comes from a disc problem?

Absolutely. Dr. Freeman uses safe, effective techniques that gently reduce disc pressure without stressing the spine.

Can sciatica go away on its own?

While temporary relief may occur, untreated compression typically worsens over time. Chiropractic intervention promotes true healing and prevents recurrence.
