Yes, physical therapy can be very effective in treating sciatica. Our physical therapists can develop a personalized treatment plan to address the underlying causes of your pain and improve your sciatica symptoms.
It may. It's worth trying.
Greetings, physical therapy can help ease some of the pain and symptoms of sciatica by stretching and may help reduce the intensity of the pain. The main issue to address is what is the cause of the sciatica.
Yes physical therapy can be quite successful with back pain and sciatic symptoms
Yes. PT can be very beneficial.
Physical therapy can help with sciatica but there is no actual "fix" or cure for a compressed nerve which is also known as sciatica. Swimming is also another way to relieve sciatica pain.
It can't necessarily "fix" it but can certainly help
Yes, PT can help with sciatica. Sciatica is vague term and there many causes for it. Various exercises, modalities and biomechanical corrections can rectify, prevent and treat sciatica.
Absolutely
In some cases. You need to be evaluated by Physiatrist, Neurologist or Pain specialist
PT can help determine the source of the sciatica, and in many cases, assist you in healing your sciatica. PT does not work if the patient, you, does not work hard on your home exercise and activity program. There are many different reasons a person gets sciatica, none of which are fixable without a lot of work on your, and your PT's, part. Good luck!
