Sciatica

Sciatica describes pain that may travel from the lower back into the leg, often associated with irritation of the sciatic nerve. An osteopath will assess your symptoms, medical history, and movement to determine whether osteopathic care is suitable.

How it’s treated

Treatment may include gentle manual techniques to the lower back, pelvis, and surrounding muscles, as well as guidance on movement, positioning, and activity levels. The aim is to help reduce irritation, improve mobility, and support day-to-day function. Referral may be recommended if symptoms require further investigation.
