Sciatica
Sciatica is one of the most common nerve-related pain conditions we see. This pain can be sharp, stabbing, or burning and radiates from the lower back down through the hips, buttocks, and legs.
Because it can be so debilitating, many people rely on painkillers to cope, but research shows that chiropractic care and integrative therapies can be among the safest and most effective solutions for sciatica. At Cornerstone Wellness Center, we are committed to identifying the root cause of your sciatic pain and helping you return to normal activity as quickly as possible.
Symptoms Associated with a Sciatica Condition
The most recognizable symptom of sciatica is radiating pain down one or both legs. However, sciatica can also present with:
Numbness, tingling, or “pins and needles” in the legs or feet
Weakness in the legs or feet
Sharp or burning pain that worsens with sitting or bending
Difficulty walking, standing, or performing everyday activities
Because the sciatic nerve affects such a large portion of the body, its irritation can disrupt multiple areas at once.

Possible Causes of Sciatica
Sciatica is a symptom of an underlying issue. Common causes include:
Herniated or bulging discs
Lumbar spinal stenosis
Degenerative disc disease
Piriformis syndrome (muscle compression of the sciatic nerve)
Spondylolisthesis (slipped vertebra)
Trauma or injury to the lower back or pelvis
Without proper diagnosis and care, sciatic symptoms often persist or worsen.
