Written By Merivale Chiropractic and Massage Clinic on March 4, 2020

Sciatica TreatmentSciatica pain is one of the most intensely painful conditions you can experience. 

The sciatic nerve consists of five nerve groups bundled together. At the thickest point, it’s approximately two centimeters in diameter. What about the length? It runs from the lower back to the ankle.  

When you experience spinal misalignment and this nerve is pinched, it’s extremely painful and requires chiropractic sciatica treatment.

Chiropractic Sciatica Treatment – How Your Ottawa, Canada Chiropractor Can Help

When your spine is out of alignment, nerves can get pinched, including the sciatic nerve. Your chiropractor can provide sciatica treatment – namely, chiropractic adjustments

When the spine is in proper alignment, the nerves are no longer pinched, which can result in immediate relief for some people. 

Relief might come a bit later for others simply because they’ve been out of alignment so long that their muscles are tense and sore. Massage therapy can bring added relief if you’re dealing with this type of pain.
