exercises are vital to treating sciatica pain. Our physical therapists or chiropractors will teach you an exercise program you can do at home to manage your pain. Many exercises can help strengthen the spinal column muscles (aka your core). A strong core provides pain relief by supporting the spine, keeping it in alignment, and facilitating movements, like bending, extending, or twisting, with less chance of injury. Targeted stretches for sciatica are designed to target restrictions in the joints and muscles that contribute to your pain. The initial assessment will help your therapist establish what’s known as a “directional preference,” meaning what helps the patient feel and move better. We may also incorporate modalities like ultrasound or laser therapies to increase blood flow and alleviate muscle tension to allow targeted stretches. Your home program will improve your pain and restore your motion so you can resume the activities you enjoy! How Our Integrated Team Can Help You If you’re experiencing sciatica, contact one of our Midland Sports Rehab, Freeland Sports Rehab and Stretch Center clinicians immediately. Your specialist will perform a thorough physical examination and provide you with solutions that work based on their findings.
