Sciatica

Sciatica is a condition where the sciatic nerve—running from the lower back down the leg—becomes irritated or compressed, causing sharp pain, tingling, or numbness. Our physiotherapy treatments focus on relieving pressure on the nerve, reducing inflammation, and restoring pain-free movement through targeted exercises, manual therapy, and posture correction.

Common Causes of Sciatica

• Sharp or burning pain down the leg
• Numbness or tingling in the buttock, leg, or foot
• Muscle weakness
• Pain that worsens with sitting, bending, or coughing

Our Treatment Approach

• Core strengthening and stretching
• Manual therapy and nerve mobilization
• Posture correction and ergonomic advice
• Education on safe movement and daily habits
• Pain relief modalities (e.g., TENS, ice, ultrasound)
