Anatomy Focus

The sciatic nerve is the longest and widest nerve in the human body.
Understanding the Condition

What is Sciatica?

Sciatica refers to pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve, which branches from your lower back through your hips and buttocks and down each leg. Typically, sciatica affects only one side of your body.

It’s not a condition itself but a symptom of an underlying problem, such as a herniated disc or bone spur on the spine that compresses part of the nerve.

Common Causes

Herniated or Slipped Disc

The soft center of a spinal disc pushes through a crack in the tougher exterior casing.

Spinal Stenosis

Narrowing of the spinal canal reduces available space for the nerves.

Piriformis Syndrome

The piriformis muscle compresses the sciatic nerve.

Expert Diagnosis

Symptoms can be confusing. Let our team provide a comprehensive, no-obligation evaluation to pinpoint the root cause.

Restore Your Spine's Health Naturally

What is Spinal Decompression?

Spinal decompression is a non-invasive, motorized traction therapy that gently stretches the spine. This stretching creates negative pressure within the spinal discs, which can help retract bulging or herniated disc material, taking pressure off nerves and other spinal structures.

Why It's Used

This technique is highly effective for treating persistent back and neck pain associated with disc issues. By creating a vacuum effect, it helps pull essential nutrients, oxygen, and moisture back into the disc, promoting natural healing and long-term relief.

Recommended For:

Sciatica
Herniated Discs
Degenerative Disc Disease
Nerve Root Pain

Expert Diagnosis

We identify the root cause of your pain.
