Does Massage Therapy Help With Sciatica Pain?

Does Massage Therapy in Arlington Heights Help with Sciatica Pain?

Arlington Chiropractic Clinic PC, your Arlington Heights chiropractor, is a Total Care clinic. This means that our doctors use a range of holistic non-invasive remedies to bring pain relief and healing. Although our Arlington Heights chiropractors treat many different conditions such as joint pain, rheumatoid arthritis, shoulder pain, lower back pain, herniated discs, hip pain, injuries from auto accidents, and worker’s compensation injuries, perhaps one of the most common and debilitating is sciatic nerve pain.

The sciatic nerve is a long, wide nerve which runs down the back of each leg, from the buttock to the foot. When something goes wrong, you experience a great deal of pain, tightness, numbness, weakness and tingling sensations along this nerve path. It can become difficult to walk, sit, stand and perform everyday activities. Sciatica may come about as the result of an automobile accident, sports injury or workers’ compensation case. It may also be attributed to physical causes such as a herniated disc, degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, or arthritis in the spine. The discomfort can become intense, and the search for sciatica pain relief becomes all-consuming.

Sciatica Pain Relief

Our chiropractors provide pain relief for sciatica by offering chiropractic care and massage therapy in Arlington Heights. Since tight lower back muscles can place stress on your nerve roots, our goals are to reduce swelling or inflammation and alleviate pressure on the nerves. We concentrate the massage on the lower back muscles in order to loosen any knots, strengthen the muscles, prevent pinching on the nerve, and encourage the release of endorphins, which help in the fight against pain.
