If the mere word "sciatica" makes you wince, you are not alone. This common health complaint affects many, many people. It most often takes the form of intense, shooting leg pain, but can also produce lower back pain, burning, cramping or numbness in the thighs, legs, ankles, feet or toes. Sometimes the pain is localized and presents in specific areas of the lower back hips or legs; often the pain is extensive and debilitating. Chiropractic care approaches the treatment of sciatica by carefully evaluating the position and function of the spinal vertebrae. It is helpful to understand that the sciatic nerves are the largest, longest nerves of your body, emanating from both sides of your lower spinal cord and running down the backs of your legs. Chiropractic treatment works to keep the sciatic nerves free of irritation from misaligned or improperly functioning vertebrae. If you're living with sciatica-induced leg pain or lower back pain, we
encourage you to call our Park Ridge, Illinois Chiropractic Office - Higgins
Sports and Spinal Rehab. Park Ridge chiropractor, Dr. Cabrera and
his caring staff have helped many patients overcome even severe sciatica
pain with proven chiropractic methods and effective alternative treatments
that do not include the use of drugs.
