Targeted Physiotherapy for Sciatic Nerve Pain, Leg Pain & Better Mobility
Sciatica can cause pain that travels from the lower back into the buttock and leg, sometimes with tingling, numbness or weakness. Physiotherapy can help identify contributing movement and strength problems and develop a personalised plan to improve mobility and function.
Sciatica refers to symptoms associated with irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve or its contributing nerve roots. It commonly affects one side and may cause pain from the lower back or buttock into the leg.
Depending on the underlying cause, symptoms can be influenced by spinal movement, prolonged sitting, lifting, repetitive activity or other mechanical factors.
At Gentle Steps Physiotherapy & Sports Rehab, treatment focuses on understanding your symptoms and functional limitations before selecting appropriate exercises, manual techniques and movement strategies.
