SCIATICA SOLUTIONS IN TROY
Will a Chiropractor Help With Sciatica? In Most Cases, Yes.
Sciatica shows up as burning, numbness, tingling, shooting pain, or weakness running down the back or outside of the thigh, sometimes into the foot. It’s caused by irritation of the sciatic nerve, most often where the nerve roots exit the low back. When that irritation comes from postural or joint dysfunction, correcting it can take the pressure off the nerve and let normal feeling and function return.
One exception: if you have any loss of bowel or bladder control along with your sciatica, that’s a medical emergency. See a medical doctor right away instead of booking a chiropractic visit first.
QSM3 TREATMENT FOR SCIATICA IN TROY
Most cases of sciatica involve compression of the sciatic nerve along the spine where there is both global (postural) compression and local compression at a dysfunctional joint. QSM3 protocols seek to decompress posture from head to toe, addressing the global problem and the segmental/local problem simultaneously, allowing the nerve to be “unpinched” and for normal function and feeling in the affected body parts to return

Should I see a chiropractor or a doctor for sciatica in Troy, MI?
If your sciatica is uncomplicated, meaning no spreading numbness and no bowel or bladder changes, a structural exam is a reasonable first step. At Elevation Spinal Care, the QSM3 approach looks at both the postural cause and the pressure on the nerve, not just the leg pain.
