Struggling with Sciatica in Sioux Center?

Sciatica refers to pain that radiates along the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back down through the hips, legs, and feet. This condition occurs when spinal nerve roots—often in the lower lumbar spine—become irritated or compressed. At Sioux Center Chiropractic, we help patients relieve sciatica pain by treating the root cause of nerve irritation with personalized, non-invasive care.

Common Sciatica Symptoms

Sciatica is often diagnosed as lumbar radiculopathy, meaning one or more nerves exiting the lower spine are pinched or inflamed. This can cause symptoms such as:

  • Sharp, shooting pain down one leg

  • Numbness or tingling in the foot, calf, or thigh

  • Burning or aching sensations

  • Pain that worsens with sitting, bending, or standing
    Symptoms vary from mild discomfort to debilitating pain depending on the severity and which nerve is affected.

Lasting Relief from Sciatic Nerve Pain

At Sioux Center Chiropractic, we focus on relieving pressure on the affected nerves and restoring proper spinal alignment and function. Your treatment plan may include:

  • Chiropractic adjustments

  • Soft tissue therapy

  • Targeted mobility and rehab exercises

  • Lifestyle modifications to reduce aggravation
    If you notice worsening pain, numbness, or weakness in your leg, notify us right away. Early intervention leads to better outcomes and faster relief.
