Physiotherapy for Sciatic Pain in Forres, Moray
The sciatic nerve originates in the spine and travels down the back of the leg all the way to your toes. Compromise of the nerve can cause pain, tingling, numbness (or altered sensation). The location and nature of these symptoms can vary greatly – often depending on the severity of nerve irritation and underlying cause.
There’s also a high recurrence rate with sciatic symptoms – often because symptoms settle with activity modification but soon recur if the underlying problem isn’t addressed (eg. Particular movement dysfunction, technique or posture). So, getting to grips with your sciatica early can prevent months and sometimes years of trouble.
We’ll begin by understanding the diagnosis and cause of your problem and then guide you with the right physio treatment in clinic, pain management options, exercise rehabilitation, loading advice, graduated exposure to activity and ultimately return to performance.
