Say Goodbye to Sciatica Pain with 'Spinal Decompression Therapy' at Prodigy Chiro Care

Sciatica – that sharp, shooting pain that radiates from your lower back down your leg – can be debilitating. At Prodigy Chiro Care, we offer a safe and effective, non-surgical solution to help you find lasting relief: Spinal Decompression Therapy.

Understanding Sciatica

Sciatica is caused by compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve, the largest nerve in your body. This nerve runs from your lower back, through your hips and buttocks, and down each leg. Common causes of sciatica include:

  • Herniated disc: A bulging disc in your lower spine can press on the sciatic nerve root.
  • Spinal stenosis: Narrowing of the spinal canal can compress the nerve.
  • Bone spurs: Overgrowths on the vertebrae can put pressure on the nerve.

Piriformis syndrome: A tight piriformis muscle (located in the buttocks) can irritate the nerve.


How Spinal Decompression Therapy Helps Sciatica

Spinal decompression therapy utilizes a computerized traction table to gently stretch the spine. This creates negative pressure within the disc space, which can:

Relieve nerve compression

By increasing space in the spine, pressure is taken off the sciatic nerve, reducing pain and inflammation.

Reposition herniated discs

Decompression therapy can help move herniated disc material away from the nerve root.

Promote healing

Increased blood flow and nutrient delivery to the affected area promotes a natural healing response.

Is Spinal Decompression Therapy Right for You?

Spinal decompression therapy can be a highly effective treatment option for many individuals suffering from sciatica, especially those who haven’t found relief with other conservative methods. It’s particularly helpful for:
Sciatica caused by herniated discs or spinal stenosis.
Patients who want to avoid surgery or injections.
Those experiencing leg pain, numbness, or weakness.
Important Note: A thorough examination by our experienced chiropractor is crucial to determine if spinal decompression therapy is the appropriate treatment for your specific condition.

Proven Results for Sciatica Relief

Research has shown that spinal decompression therapy can significantly reduce sciatica pain and improve quality of life. Here are some key findings:

  • Significant pain reduction: A study published in the Journal of Orthopedic & Sports Physical Therapy found that patients with sciatica who underwent spinal decompression therapy experienced significant reductions in pain intensity.
  • Improved functional capacity: Many patients report improvements in their ability to perform daily activities, such as walking, bending, and lifting, after undergoing decompression therapy.
