Pain Shooting Down Your Leg? Numbness, Tingling, or Burning? It Might Be Sciatica.
We help you identify the root cause—then relieve the pressure so you can move again without pain.
Sciatica is more than just a backache—it's nerve pain that begins in your lower spine and radiates down the back of your legs. It’s caused by irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve, often due to spinal misalignments, herniated discs, or degenerative issues in the lower back.
Common symptoms include:
-
Sharp or burning pain radiating down one leg
-
Numbness or tingling in the leg or foot
-
Muscle weakness
-
Difficulty standing or walking comfortably
Sciatica affects up to 40% of adults at some point in their lives, making it one of the most common nerve-related pain conditions.
Sciatica isn’t just a back problem—it affects your entire life.
It flares up when you sit too long.
Burns down your hip or leg.
Sometimes it feels like weakness… sometimes like electric shocks.
You’ve tried stretching. Meds. Maybe even injections.
But if the nerve is still compressed, the pain keeps coming back.
Until the pressure is off, your body can’t heal.
We don’t guess—we test, assess, and correct the cause of nerve pressure.
At PyroLife, we start with a thorough spinal exam and movement assessment to locate the true source of compression.
In many cases, the sciatic nerve is irritated by misalignment or tension in the lower spine and pelvis.
Through targeted chiropractic adjustments and postural corrections, we restore space, relieve pressure, and reduce inflammation.
When appropriate, we integrate movement support through our Spinal Resiliency Program to help prevent future flare-ups.

Sciatica after a car accident?
The impact from even minor collisions can inflame or compress the sciatic nerve—especially if you were twisted or jolted.
