Sciatica / Leg Pain
Signs and Symptoms:
Varying pain and intensity levels, aching and stiffness around the lower spine, hips and buttocks. Radiating pains into the legs with/without pins and needles and numbness. Pain with movement, exercise, prolonged sitting and standing. The area could be tender to touch.
Common Causes:

How We Can Help:
We will thoroughly examine your spine, structure and overall alignment. We will assess your joints, discs, nerves and any underlying muscle weaknesses.
Once we pin point the problem(s), we can adjust the spine where there are signs of dysfunction and correct any structural issues. We would advise doing specific exercises to strengthen and rehabilitate any identified weaknesses.
We have in-house massage therapy who can assist you if any associated muscle pain and tension has been identified. They would typically also advise on stretching, strength and rehab.
We have good links with private imaging centres if further testing and information was required.
