Here at Murphy Family Chiropractic, we provide regular lower back pain relief for patients of all ages. Let us share sciatica symptoms and treatment, so you can decide if your back pain is sciatica and learn how our Aurora chiropractor can help.
What are Symptoms of Sciatica
Sciatica arises when the sciatic nerve becomes compressed. Its main symptom is pain that radiates from the lower back down the buttocks, hips, or legs. This pain can run down the front or the back of the legs, and generally affects one side of your body rather than both.
In addition to this radiating pain, some people experience muscle weakness, leg numbness, or a pins and needles sensation.
If you have lower back pain and experience these symptoms, visit our chiropractor in Aurora to get checked out.
How Our Chiropractor in Centennial Relieves Sciatica Pain
Our chiropractor in Centennial, Dr. Murphy, performs a comprehensive evaluation to make sure your pain really is sciatica.
Dr. Murphy also does tests to check where your sciatic nerve is compressed. Sciatica may have underlying causes, such as a slipped disc that places pressure on the sciatica nerve. Our chiropractor in Aurora will develop a personalized treatment plan to reduce your sciatica symptoms, relieve sciatic nerve compression, and restore back alignment to end your lower back pain.
To do this, our Centennial chiropractor makes targeted chiropractic adjustments that restore the alignment of your spine. These alignments are gentle and low force, so you will not experience pain. We may make either instrument-based adjustments using the activator or impulse IQ tool, or we may make manual adjustments. While it takes a series of adjustments from our Centennial chiropractor to fully relieve sciatic nerve compression, most patients start to notice a reduction in their sciatica symptoms after their first adjustment.
