Sciatica Treatment North Perth

Do You Need Help with Sciatica or Nerve Pain?

At Upright Chiropractic, we know how debilitating sciatica and nerve pain can be, impacting your mobility and overall quality of life. We are here to help you find relief and restore your body’s natural function through gentle, effective chiropractic care.

Are you experiencing the following:

• Sharp pain or discomfort that radiates down your leg?

• Tingling or numbness in your lower back, buttocks, or legs?

• Difficulty standing or sitting for prolonged periods?

• Muscle weakness in your legs or feet?

• Pain that worsens with movements like bending or twisting?

• Difficulty with daily activities such as walking, lifting, or driving?

Sciatica and nerve pain can interfere with your ability to perform everyday tasks, whether it’s getting out of bed, going to work, or playing with your children. The pain often stems from irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve, but a thorough evaluation is needed to determine the exact cause.

Common Causes of Sciatica/Nerve Pain:

• Herniated or bulging discs

• Spinal misalignment or subluxations

• Poor posture or prolonged sitting

• Degenerative disc disease

• Piriformis syndrome

• Trauma or injury to the lower back

• Repetitive strain or overuse injuries

Treating Sciatica and Nerve Pain

At Upright Chiropractic, we take a holistic approach to treating sciatica and nerve pain. We focus on the entire neuromusculoskeletal system, including the spine, extremities, muscles, and nervous system. This comprehensive view allows us to address not just the symptoms but the root cause of your pain.

To ensure the right diagnosis, we start with a detailed clinical history and a thorough physical examination, which may include orthopedic, neurological, and musculoskeletal assessments. If further diagnostic testing is required, such as an X-ray or MRI, we will guide you through the process.

After gathering all the necessary information, we will explain the findings clearly and tailor a personalised treatment plan to suit your condition and health goals. Our aim is to relieve your pain, restore proper function, and help you get back to doing the activities you enjoy. If referral to another healthcare provider is necessary, we will ensure you receive the best care possible.
