SCIATIC PAIN

Sciatic Pain Treatment

Sciatic pain, or sciatica, occurs when the sciatic nerve is irritated or compressed, often causing sharp, burning pain that radiates from the lower back down the leg. Physiotherapy helps relieve pressure on the nerve, reduce pain, and restore mobility so you can return to normal activities.

What to Expect in Physiotherapy

Your physiotherapist will assess your spine, hip, and leg movement to identify the source of nerve irritation. Treatment may include manual therapy, nerve gliding techniques, core strengthening, postural correction, and stretches to relieve pressure on the sciatic nerve. Education and home exercises are also key parts of long-term recovery.
