Sciatica Treatment in Bismarck
Sciatica pain originates from the sciatic nerve, which runs down the lower back, buttocks, and legs. When this nerve is compressed or inflamed, it can cause sharp pain, tingling, or numbness along its pathway. This type of discomfort can make it challenging to tackle daily tasks or participate in your favorite activities.

What Are Some of the Primary Causes?
Sciatica typically results from pressure on the sciatic nerve due to conditions like herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or bone spurs, which compress nerves along the lower spine. In some cases, prolonged sitting, obesity, or diabetes can also increase risk, contributing to nerve inflammation and irritation.
The good news is that chiropractic can help. Many patients visit us for relief from sciatica, seeking a solution that addresses both immediate pain and long-term healing.
How Chiropractic Adjustments Can Help
Accelerating Healing With SoftWave® Therapy

Ongoing Care and Home Exercises
In addition to the care we offer at the practice, we encourage patients to perform at-home stretches and make some lifestyle changes to keep sciatica at bay. For example, by addressing habits that may contribute to sciatica, like prolonged sitting, frequent leg crossing or improper lifting, you can enjoy less pain and a greater quality of life.
