Chronic Lower Back Pain & Sciatica Relief in Bicton
Targeted Manual Therapy for Disc Management, Nerve Pain, and Mechanical Stiffness
Lower back pain is a core pillar of our practice. Every patient presents a unique mechanical puzzle, and our goal is to move you from immediate relief to long-term functional resilience.
A Multimodal Methodology: We combine traditional manual chiropractic adjustments with focused soft tissue therapy to address adhesions that restrict your range of motion. By restoring fluid, pain-free movement to the joints and soft tissues, we support your body’s natural recovery process.
Active Recovery & Load Management: Hands-on treatment is only one part of the solution. We dedicate time to discussing your daily activity, ergonomics, and movement patterns.
Activity Modification: We spend time providing you with the tools to stay active while you recover.
Load Management: to help ensure the pain stays away long-term.
Beyond the Spine: Is your back pain actually a nerve issue? Many patients come to us after "everything else" has failed. We look beyond just the joints and adjustments to assess:
Disc Management: Evidence-based care for bulging or herniated discs.
Sciatica: Addressing causes of sciatica that can come from outside the spine. (piriformis syndrome / deep gluteal syndrome)
Cluneal Nerve Irritation: A frequently overlooked cause of lower back and buttock pain that traditional treatments and practitioners often miss.
Our Unique Clinical Focus
We know that back pain isn't just about a "joint out of place." It’s a complex mix of nerve irritation, muscle adhesions, and load management. At Southside Spine & Sport, our approach involves:
Nerve Pain & Sciatica: Comprehensive assessment of radiating leg pain and often-overlooked sources of discomfort like Cluneal Nerve Irritation.
Adhesion Release: We utilize specific soft tissue techniques to target fibrous restrictions in the muscles and fascia that contribute to persistent stiffness, reduced range of movement and pain.
Movement & Load Management: We help you understand your current level of function. By modifying your daily activities and managing how you load your spine, we allow irritated tissues to calm down while building the resilience needed to prevent future episodes.
