With our Brevard County sciatica treatment, we start with an accurate diagnosis. If you’re experiencing the symptoms of sciatica but haven’t been technically diagnosed, we may suggest an X-ray, MRI, or CT scan to confirm spinal misalignment and location of the pressure point(s).
Once we’ve identified the place in your back that’s pinching the sciatic nerve and causing pain and inflammation, we use chiropractic therapies to adjust the spine back into normal alignment. This might include gentle manual manipulation/adjustments, ultrasound waves that reduce muscle and tissue inflammation, PNF stretching, or cold therapy.
After aligning your spine, the pressure on the sciatic nerve will be relieved, and your body will be able to heal itself, eliminating pain and swelling. To fully realign your spine, you may need to visit the Injury Centers of Brevard location nearest you in Brevard County, FL, a few times to slowly adjust your spine without causing further damage. If your sciatica is the result of an injury or car accident, let our team know so that we can share all of our records with any legal parties necessary to help you file a claim.
