How do chiropractors help sciatic pain?
Sciatic pain is one of the most common conditions that chiropractors treat. The nerves exiting the lumbar spine and sacrum combine to form the sciatic nerve, which resides adjacent to the sacroiliac (SI) joint. When the SI joints become fixated and the cartilage within the joints becomes inflamed, this directly irritates the sciatic nerve and causes pain that starts in the low back and radiates into the gluteal region and posterior thigh. By mobilizing the SI joints and lower lumbar segments, we get these joints moving properly, which in turn relieves the irritation on the sciatic nerve. The ibuprofen can provide temporary relief by reducing the pain caused by the inflammation, but this is simply a band-aid for the problem. Until you get the joint(s) moving properly again, the pain will continue to reoccur. READ MORE
