What is Sciatica?
The sciatic nerve is the longest nerve in the body, and it lies in your lower back. Sciatica occurs because something has irritated or put pressure on that nerve, causing sensations of numbness or tingling to travel down the legs. When this becomes a chronic condition, it's known as sciatica. Spinal misalignments, excess weight, and disc disorders can all act as the trigger for sciatica.
At Health in Balance, we are dedicated to providing relief from sciatica with our professional care. If you are suffering from sciatica, consider scheduling an appointment for chiropractic care.
