The sciatic nerve is the largest nerve in the body, starting in the lower back and running down the hips, buttocks, legs, and feet. Sciatica is a condition characterized by pain that originates in the lower back or buttock and travels down one or both legs. Sciatica can be caused by many different things, including repetitive wear and tear, a herniated disc, pressure to the nerve from a bulging disc in the lower lumbar spine, an acute injury, an awkward motion where the spine is momentarily vulnerable, or pressure on the nerve from a tight muscle. More than 90% of sciatica cases occur from a disc disorder that causes compression of one or more of the nerve roots that comprise the sciatic nerve.
Symptoms of Sciatica
Since the most common cause of sciatica involves pressure on your nerves by something, physiotherapy for sciatica focuses on lessening this pressure and alleviating the muscle tension felt in the legs, buttocks, and back. Specific treatments methods will depend on the underlying cause, but usually includes exercise and modification of at-home behavior by the patient. Specific exercises could include gentle stretching, back-movement exercises, spine stabilization exercises, soft tissue release and nerve mobilization exercises. In addition to physiotherapy, many patients also incorporate manual therapy and acupuncture to reduce pain.
