Sciatica & Nerve Compression
Targeted Sciatic Nerve Decompression & Gliding
Understanding the Problem
Sciatica involves irritation of the sciatic nerve, causing sharp, shooting, or burning pain that travels from the lumbar spine through the buttock down the leg.
Common Symptoms Observed
Common Biomechanical & Clinical Causes
- Herniated or bulging disc
- Piriformis muscle tightness
- Spinal canal stenosis
- Spondylolisthesis
Red Flags & Referral
If you experience any of the following symptoms, immediate medical or surgical evaluation is recommended before physical rehabilitation:
- Loss of bowel or bladder control
- Groin or saddle numbness
- Progressive leg buckling
Our Rehabilitation Approach
Neural mobilization glides, specific extension-based disc centralizing movements, and piriformis myofascial release.
Neural Flossing Exercises
Restoring smooth gliding of nerve roots.
Extension Centralization
McKenzie techniques to pull pain out of the leg.
Piriformis Release
Decompressing the nerve where it passes gluteal muscles.
Spinal Traction Option
Controlled decompression for disc space restoration.
Expected Functional Rehabilitation Goals
Centralize radiating pain back to the spine, reduce leg nerve irritation, and restore normal walking distance.
