**What Is Sciatica?**Sciatica is a condition that occurs when the sciatic nerve—the longest nerve in your body—is compressed or irritated, usually near the lower spine. This nerve runs from your lower back through the hips, buttocks, and down each leg.

Common causes of sciatica include:- Spinal misalignments (subluxations)

• Herniated or bulging discs

• Degenerative disc disease

• Spinal stenosis

• Pelvic misalignment

• Muscle tightness (especially piriformis syndrome)

• Previous injuries or repetitive stress

Sciatica Symptoms We Help Treat- Sharp, shooting pain from the lower back into the buttock or leg

• Numbness, tingling, or burning sensations down one side

• Weakness in the leg or foot

• Pain that worsens with sitting, bending, or lifting

• Discomfort that makes it hard to sleep or walk normally

Sciatica often develops gradually and can persist or worsen over time without proper care.
