Sciatica put simply is back pain, hip pain and leg pain combined. When an individual has a sudden onset of severe back pain that radiates to their leg and foot, sciatica is often the culprit. Typically there is inflammation or irritation of nerve fibers along the pathway of the sciatic nerve, which in turn causes an individual to feel pain. As a result, walking upright may feel quite painful. Associated symptoms are numbness and tingling in an individual's leg or foot.
Acupuncture is an excellent first choice for treatment of sciatica because it is both safe and gets quick results. Acupuncture treatment works by targeting areas along the Sciatic nerve and releasing muscle spasms and gently stimulating the nerve fibers themselves. Acupuncture has the dual effect of solving the pain and numbness as well as the underlying cause of sciatica- reducing local irritation of nerve fibers in your body. In fact, we've helped many individuals with long term numbness in their feet regain normal feeling!
