- Everyone knows at least one person who has needlessly suffered from sciatica!
- This is a very specific type of pain that is likely caused from a disc that is herniated/bulging and is encroaching upon the sciatic nerve. When the sciatic nerve is pinched, it often causes pain and numbness that starts in the buttock region extending through the leg, usually ending in the foot. This is called a radiculopathy because this pain radiates along the route the sciatic nerve travels through the leg.
- Typically, a sciatica like pain only affects one side which is related to a herniated/bulging disc on that same side. There is evidence to support that upwards of 40% of the middle-aged population suffer from sciatica. Often, sciatica has a highly favorable response to conservative methods of treatment such as Upper Cervical Spinal Care and Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression.
Testimonials
I’ve been dealing with this weird left sided neck pain for two years now. I’ve done it all. I’ve done massage, heat, cold, cupping, traditional chiro, and physical therapy. Nothing was helping so I went to good ole tik tok and heard about the cervical atlas. I knew immediately this was my issue so I researched local providers who specialized in this and Dr. Lea stood out the most to me as he really seems to exhibit the most knowledge and expertise. So glad I chose him! Staff have always been super kind and helpful. My consult was very detailed and never felt rushed. I just finally felt heard. After X-rays and determining I did indeed have a misalignment with my atlas as well as a cervical compression. I agreed to 12 treatments and after the 1st I already felt better. In conjunction with changing some life style habits I’ve really really had such success with much less pain. I highly recommend Dr Lea! You won’t be disappointed!
