Sciatica Treatment in Palmwoods

Sciatica can cause debilitating pain that radiates from the lower back down the leg, making everyday activities difficult. At Vitalia Health Chiropractic, we provide gentle, effective chiropractic care to help relieve sciatic nerve pain, improve mobility, and support long-term spinal health.

Are you experiencing any of the following?

  • Sharp, shooting pain down one or both legs

  • Numbness, tingling, or weakness in the legs or feet

  • Lower back pain that worsens with movement

  • Difficulty sitting, standing, or walking for long periods

  • Burning or electric-like sensations along the sciatic nerve pathway

Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve becomes irritated or compressed, often due to spinal misalignment, herniated discs, or muscle tension. Identifying the root cause is essential for effective treatment.

  • Spinal misalignments or disc bulges

  • Pregnancy-related postural changes

  • Muscle tightness or inflammation

  • Poor posture and prolonged sitting

  • Nerve compression from spinal conditions

Common Causes of Sciatica:

Dr Laura Brooks at Vitalia Health Chiropractic takes a personalised approach to treating sciatica. Through gentle chiropractic adjustments, targeted soft tissue therapy, and postural corrections, we aim to reduce nerve irritation, ease discomfort, and restore movement.

We begin with a thorough assessment to understand the underlying cause of your sciatica. A customised treatment plan may include spinal adjustments, mobility exercises, and ergonomic advice to support recovery and prevent future flare-ups.

Prevention and Education:

Long-term relief from sciatica involves addressing posture, strengthening core muscles, and maintaining spinal alignment. We provide guidance on stretching, strengthening exercises, and lifestyle modifications to help prevent sciatic nerve irritation from recurring.
