Battle Back Pain and Sciatica with Expert Physical Therapy Today!
Struggling with morning backaches or pain in your buttocks and thighs? Does the fear of throwing out your back dominate your daily life? You're not alone. The American Physical Therapy Association states most Americans report back pain, with 1 in 4 suffering in the last three months.
Back pain differs from sciatica, which causes widespread pain down your leg, but people often confuse them. Radiculopathy can also occur, a condition causing numbness, tingling, or sharp pain in your leg, usually due to a herniated disc or nerve entrapment when exiting the spine. Seek relief not from medication, which only covers up the pain, but from physical therapy - it tackles the root cause, avoids risky painkillers, and could help you dodge surgery.
What's the cause of my back pain or sciatica?
Put a stop to the constant battle against back pain, a nemesis that doesn't discriminate, assaulting our comfort unexpectedly with a sudden turn or as a result of troubling conditions such as herniated discs. This unwelcome intruder overshadows even the most basic joys of life, including the ability to simply stroll around. When the cushions between our vertebrae deteriorate, tasks that once seemed mundane now present themselves as herculean undertakings.
The period between your 30s and 50s is particularly critical, as this is when you should be on high alert for sciatica, a condition that doesn't necessarily emerge due to an injury. It could stealthily arise from other issues like arthritis or declining mobility, which in turn puts pressure on your spine and the extensive sciatic nerve. Embark on a journey to learn empowering strategies that help restore your body's natural balance and effectively shield against the pervasive disruption caused by back pain.

Sciatica
Sciatica isn't just any back pain—it's a uniquely intense discomfort that's immediately recognizable. Luckily, it's straightforward to pinpoint. Those suffering from sciatica feel a distinctive pang tracing the path of the sciatic nerve, the body's most extensive nervous expressway.
Experience the jolt of sciatic nerve pain? Originating in the lower back, the majestic sciatic nerve branches out from the spine's base, meandering down through your buttocks to legs, and reaching the feet's very ends. But when compressed or inflamed, it fires up a sensation that zings like lightning – a searing ‘shooting,’ a fierce ‘stinging,’ or an intense ‘burning’ in your lower back, buttocks, legs, or feet.
