Sciatica Treatment

Sciatica refers to the pain, inflammation, and neurological sensations that are linked to the sciatic nerve. People suffering from sciatica feel pain radiating downwards in the back of their legs. The intensity of pain varies from a dull ache to shooting pain that can paralyze you for a moment. Usually, severe cases of sciatica can be treated with surgical intervention, but osteopathy is also a suitable option. 

Osteopathy for sciatica Dubai is a non-invasive treatment option that relieves your pain and restores mobility. 

What are the Symptoms?

People suffering from sciatica experience a number of symptoms that include:

• Severe pain in the lower back, legs, or buttocks
• Numbness in the calf or foot
• Tingling sensation in the calf or foot
• Weakening in muscles 
• Problems in controlling or moving the leg
• Pain in the lower back while coughing or sneezing 

Causes of Sciatica

Several underlying conditions can cause sciatica which includes:

• A herniated disc in the lower back 
• Spinal Stenosis (nerve passages narrowing in the spine)
• Growths within the spine 
• Trauma to the lower back 
• Piriformis syndrome (spasms in the piriformis muscle that is found in the buttock region)
• Pregnancy can also cause sciatica as the pelvis and lower back are under pressure. 

Osteopathic Diagnosis of Sciatica

Osteopathy Dubai is a less invasive and holistic approach to treat sciatica. An osteopath takes your detailed medical history, analyzes your symptoms, and examines you physically to diagnose the cause of sciatica. They take into account your previous x-rays, tests, and scans to see if a previous injury has impacted the mechanics of the spine, pelvis, and hips.

During a careful examination, osteopaths check how joints and muscles in the spine are working and locate the area of tension. It helps them to identify the inflamed joints or muscles and the type of imbalance in the spine. An osteopath will also analyze other regions of your body to see how they contribute to spinal dysfunction. 

Our osteopaths aim to reduce the pain, improve your mobility and help you get back to normal life.
