Back pain & sciatica

One of the most common reasons people come to see us — and one of the most rewarding to help with.

When your back is holding you back

Lower-back pain can make everyday life harder; sitting or lifting at work, sleeping well, or lifting the shopping and keeping up with the family. Sciatica, where pain or tingling travels from the back down the leg, can be especially wearing.

Chiropractic care may help with back pain, stiffness and sciatica that arises from problems of the joints and muscles of the spine and pelvis. We start by understanding what’s going on, then explain whether we can help.

Chiropractic may be able to help such things as:

  • Persistent or recurring lower-back pain
  • Joint stiffness first thing in the morning
  • Pain or tingling travelling into the buttock or leg (sciatica)
  • Discomfort from sitting, driving or lifting
