- 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 cannot rave enough about Dr Lea and his staff, ontop of the amazing healing work they do!!!
I’m in middle of my treatment now and I’ve already experienced what I thought was impossible. I have had moments where I am PAIN FREE. Not like oh my pain went from a 6 to a 5 but like pain was an 8 crying some days to having 0 pain at moments and as low as a 3 throughout my everyday life. For the first time in 6 years, I finally have some hope.
All other doctors I had seen for degenerative disc disease and spinal stenosis told me it’s irreversible and made it seem like a death sentence. They pushed injections and surgery, telling me those were my only options. But when I met Dr Lea, he did more of an examination than ANY had done before. He explained why it was happening and what spinal decompression could do to help. He gave me hope for a solution, realistic expectations and most of all compassion. He apologized for the other doctors and I felt he was on my team. The greatest decision I’ve made with my health was trusting Dr Lea and becoming his patient.
