Understanding Sciatica Nerve Pain

Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve—the longest nerve in your body—becomes compressed or irritated in the lower back, causing pain that radiates through your buttock and leg. Dr. Jeff performs comprehensive evaluations, including orthopedic testing, neurological assessments, and range-of-motion analysis to pinpoint the source of nerve compression. We then develop targeted treatment to eliminate nerve irritation at its source, whether from disc problems, spinal misalignments, or soft tissue pressure.

  • Herniated or Bulging Discs Damaged spinal discs that protrude and press directly on the sciatic nerve root
  • Lumbar Subluxations Vertebral misalignments in the lower back that compress nerve pathways and create radiating leg pain
  • Piriformis Syndrome Tight piriformis muscle in the buttock that compresses the sciatic nerve as it passes underneath
