Our clinic has helped so many people in our Oakville, ON community, and it is ready to help you too. Request an appointment today, and let us help you discover long-term relief from your sciatica.

What causes sciatica pain?

The sciatic nerve is the largest nerve in the human body. It originates as nerve roots in the lumbar spine and runs through the buttocks region, to the knee, before it branches off into two nerves that go into the lower leg. When irritated, it can cause a slew of problems. Some of these you wouldn’t even think were coming from the sciatic nerve because they mimic common musculoskeletal problems of the lower extremity – like a hamstring or calf strain.

The causes of sciatica can be simple or complex. One of the most common causes is an irritation of a lumbar nerve root caused by a disc herniation. But it can also be caused by other sensitive structures in the spine, and it could be made worse by external factors like stress, poor sleeping patterns, lack of physical activity, and other unhealthy behaviors.

NO BETTER PLACE TO PROVIDE SCIATICA RELIEF

Sciatica typically affects people between the ages of 30 and 50, but it is possible for younger and older people to experience it too. The good news is that most people recover from about of sciatica. If you live with sciatica pain, a physical therapist – physiotherapist, chiropractor, or athletic therapist – at Leaps and Bounds: Performance Rehabiliation will first take a look at your medical history to identify any factors that could be contributing to the discomfort you are currently experiencing, like prior events causing trauma or past surgeries. They will then perform a physical evaluation including assessing your spinal and lower extremity mobility, nerve function, and asking you to perform some activities in order to find out your level of function.

Your therapist can work with you to:

  • Improve your mobility
  • Increase your strength
  • Reduce sciatica pain
  • Restore your activities of daily living
  • Return you to your sport
  • Provide education to promote an overall healthy lifestyle.
  • Provide education to minimize the frequency and intensity of your future episodes
