Sciatica Treatment
Sciatica is
caused by pressure on the sciatic nerve. This pressure results
in pain down the side or back of the leg as far down as the calf
or even ankle. Sciatica usually comes from a combination of factors:
- Spasms of various muscles
that the sciatic nerve runs through squeeze the nerve e.g. piriformis
muscle.
- Inflammation causes
pressure and irritation to the sciatic nerve.
- A herniated disc puts
pressure on the nerves that come together to form the sciatic
nerve.
Acupuncture is effective
in relieving:
- the secondary inflammation
- muscle spasm
- the pressure
