Sciatic pain is one of the most common conditions we treat at our clinic in Austin, Texas. People often are lead straight to costly and harmful steroid injections, MRIs, and even surgery before they’ve tried physical therapy. Sciatic pain and other radiating nerve pain down the legs, arms, and back can often be resolved with conservative treatment like physical therapy. Let us help you out of pain.

Understanding Sciatica

Sciatica isn't a standalone ailment; it's a symptom of an underlying issue. This discomfort arises when the sciatic nerve, running from the lower back down each leg, becomes pinched or irritated. The outcome? Pain that often travels from the lower back, through the buttocks, and down the leg. It can range from a mild ache to an intense, burning sensation.

Common Sciatica Culprits

Sciatica can be triggered by various factors, including herniated discs, spinal stenosis, piriformis syndrome, and spondylolisthesis.
