Sciatica Treatment | Crest Natural Health Centre

Understanding Sciatica

Sciatica is irritation or compression of a nerve root contributing to the sciatic nerve.

How Crest May Support You

Homeopathic care is based on the side, direction and sensation of the pain, factors that aggravate or relieve it and accompanying numbness or weakness. Progressive weakness or worsening numbness requires medical assessment.

Medical Notice: Homeopathic care at Crest Natural Health Centre complements but does not replace emergency, hospital or specialist treatment. Patients should continue prescribed medicines unless their qualified medical practitioner advises otherwise.

Common Symptoms

Shooting or burning pain from the lower back or buttock into one leg

Tingling

Numbness

Sometimes weakness

Causes & Triggers

Sciatica is usually caused by a slipped (herniated) disc pressing on the sciatic nerve.

A narrowing of the spinal canal (spinal stenosis) can squeeze the nerve.

Tight muscles deep in the buttock (piriformis syndrome) or a pelvic injury can also be responsible.

It is most common in men between the ages of 30 and 50.

Risks of Delaying Care

Severe or long-lasting pressure on the nerve can cause lasting numbness or weakness in the leg.

Pain can become chronic and interfere with sleep and daily life.

In rare cases, loss of bladder or bowel control signals a serious problem that needs urgent care.
