If you are experiencing burning, radiating pain from your back to one or both legs, you might have sciatica, also known as lumbar radiculopathy. Compression of the sciatic nerve can cause severe pain, and prolonged compression can significantly affect your daily activities. Finding relief from sciatica can be challenging due to limited treatment options. Sciatica is a general term that comes from the Latin word that means leg pain. The actual cause of sciatica could be coming from many different tissues and structures.

Conventional sciatica treatments typically involve pain management medications with potentially severe side effects. Surgeries with lengthy recovery times that in many cases doesn't fix the problem. However, at Brisbane Chiropractic, we offer an effective sciatica treatment protocol that avoids medication and invasive procedures. Our approach focuses on figuring out exactly what is causing your sciatica and focusing treatment to that area. Please note from the research 75% of sciatica cases respond to treatment in 3-4 months. 25% take longer to respond so a long-term treatment approach is needed.
