Sciatica

Sciatica is characterized by pain in the lower back that radiates down one or both legs. The pain is described as dull, achy, sharp, like “pins and needles” or similar to electric shocks. Other symptoms associated with sciatica include burning, numbness and tingling sensations.

At Ascension Health our Fernley team treats sciatica with non-surgical, drug-free care whenever possible — chiropractic adjustments, targeted physical therapy, joint or trigger-point injections, and supportive services like IV nutrition. We start by understanding the underlying cause so the relief actually lasts.
