Can Chiropractic Adjustments Provide Relief from Sciatica?

Sciatica is a consequence of the inflammation or irritation of the sciatic nerve. It is the largest nerve in our bodies and spreads from the low back down to feet. Sciatica can occur anywhere along that path. It can cause anything from mild discomfort to a complete inability to walk. In any case, it needs to be treated as soon as possible, and chiropractic adjustments have shown great success in sciatica management.

Why is chiropractic adjustment so effective against sciatica? Firstly, sciatica is not a disease; it is a symptom. In most cases, the underlying condition for sciatica is a spine-related problem. Among others, these include Spondylolisthesis, Lumbar Herniated Disc, and Spinal Stenosis. Therefore, to provide results for sciatica pain relief, the state of the spine needs to be improved, which is the primary goal of every chiropractic adjustment.

Realigning the spine takes the pressure of the sciatic nerve, decreases inflammation and irritation, which leads to pain relief. The results are sometimes visible after only one session, but it usually takes several appointments to achieve long-term results. It all depends on the underlying condition that causes sciatica in the first place.
