Sciatica
How to take the journey away from leg pain caused by sciatica, avoiding continuous pills or risky surgery – and there is no need to see your GP first
Sciatica
Sciatica is a general term relating to the nerve in your leg being painful and sensitive. There can be a whole host of reasons that this can happen, which is why seeing a Physio is helpful to assess the causes for your particular problem. A common cause of sciatica is when you strain or sprain your back, this can result in injuring a part of the joint, or making the muscles tighten up, both resulting in leg pain. Once you’ve been assessed it is easier to determine how long it will take for the pain to ease and get back to the things you love doing.
Sciatica can be one of the worst body related pains we come across, and that’s why we wanted to determine the cause in the first visit. We need to make sure we’ve ruled out anything that suggests an MRI scan would help you recover (In most cases they don’t!).
Once we’ve done that, we can go ahead and start using manual therapy techniques and targeted exercises to start the journey of recovery.

Look Who Else Came For Specialist Physio At The Wimborne Clinic And Left Feeling More ACTIVE, HEALTHY And HAPPY!
“I had a complicated history of back and hip pain, that was initially thought to be requiring a hip replacement. I went on to see two specialists, and they actually recommended physiotherapy. I was advised to come to The Wimborne Clinic, after suffering with continued restrictions to my daily activities. The professional reception the clinic offers and then the treatment which got to the root of the problem and got me back to being active.”
