Sciatica Pain Relief in Livermore
Available at Livermore, Pleasanton, Manteca, Brentwood, San Ramon
If you’ve ever felt a sharp, shooting pain that travels from your lower back down into your leg, you may already know how frustrating sciatica can be.
This condition occurs when the sciatic nerve (the longest nerve in the body) becomes irritated or compressed.
The result can be leg pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness that makes it hard to sit, stand, walk, or even sleep comfortably.
For some people, the discomfort comes and goes. For others, it can feel constant and overwhelming.
What Causes Sciatica?
Sciatica often develops from herniated discs, spinal misalignments, tight muscles, or even daily strain from sitting too long or lifting incorrectly.
Auto accidents, sports injuries, and the natural aging process can also contribute. Because the sciatic nerve is so large, even a small amount of pressure can cause widespread pain.
How Chiropractic Can Help
Our team at Alexander Chiropractic and Wellness looks for the root cause, not just the symptoms.
Gentle chiropractic adjustments can restore proper spinal alignment, reducing nerve irritation and helping the body heal naturally.
Depending on your needs, we may also recommend:
- Active Release Technique® (ART®) to release tight muscles
- Flexion Distraction for disc-related issues
- Shockwave therapy to reduce inflammation and promote healing
- Custom orthotics if poor posture or foot mechanics contribute to your pain
By tailoring care to each patient, we help you not only get out of pain but also stay active and prevent flare-ups in the future.
When to See a Chiropractor for Sciatica
If your leg or back pain has lasted more than a week, keeps returning, or interferes with daily life, it’s time to seek care.
When left untreated, sciatica can worsen and lead to long-term nerve issues.
