What Is Sciatica in Louisville KY?

Sciatica refers to irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve. This nerve is the longest nerve in your body going from your lumbar vertebrae, through your hips, buttocks, and down each leg. Most people feel it in only one side of their body. The pain can be mild discomfort or severe disabling pain. Contact our Louisville KY chiropractic clinic today to learn more.
Sciatica is not a stand alone diagnosis. It is usually a symptom of other underlying issues like herniated discs, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, or structural imbalances that put pressure on the nerves.
Common symptoms of Sciatica
- Sharp, shooting pain radiating down one leg
- Numbness, tingling, or burning pain into your foot or toes
- Leg weakness or even difficulty moving
- Low back pain that gets worse with sitting or standing
Sciatica Treatment in Louisville KY, that Works
At Lowe Chiropractic, we specialize in helping people find what’s causing their sciatica. Using non-invasive, drug-free treatments tailored to your body, we help you find lasting relief. Medications just cover up the pain, and surgeries always have risks. Our examinations and treatments focus on finding and fixing the root cause of your pain.
Our Proven 2-Step Sciatica Relief Protocol
- Get an Exam. We use modern, hospital grade technology to find out which nerves are affected, and how they are being injured. Our technologies include: Myovision, a nerve scan that was developed with a prestigious grant from the National Institutes of Health; high speed digital x-rays; Posture Scans, to see and track how you are compensating for the problems; & specific examinations from Doctors of Chiropractic.
- Get a Plan. Our doctors will go through all of the tests and review them with you. They will make a plan based on your goals and their findings to get you better fast.
Our therapies for Sciatica include
- Gentle, specific chiropractic adjustments to reduce nerve interference and restore normal movements to your joints. This helps relieve pressure on the components of the Sciatic Nerve and reduce inflammation.
- Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression is an advanced type of traction. It uses computer models to help open the disc without aggravating the muscles around it. Opening the disc relieves pressure on the nerve and helps bulging or herniated discs to heal naturally,
- Laser therapy (approved by the FDA for low back pain) reduces swelling and inflammation while helping to increase blood flow to the area. It is highly effective for nerve pain (neuralgia) and accelerates healing without side effects.
- Customized Exercises: We will show you specific exercises to help you strengthen your spine and stretch certain muscles at the right time in your care.
