What Is Sciatica?

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.

Sciatica May Involve

  • Lower back or buttock pain
  • Pain travelling into the leg
  • Tingling or pins and needles

Daily Life & Recovery

Get Back to Sitting, Walking & Everyday Activities

Sciatica can make simple activities such as sitting, walking, bending, sleeping or working uncomfortable. Rehabilitation focuses on gradually improving your ability to perform these activities while managing symptoms appropriately.

As your symptoms and physical capacity improve, exercises can be progressed to help build strength, movement confidence and tolerance for everyday activities.

The goal is to help you move more comfortably and confidently while addressing relevant physical factors that may contribute to recurring symptoms.

Important

When Should Sciatica Be Medically Evaluated?

Most cases of back-related leg pain can be managed conservatively, but certain symptoms require prompt medical assessment.

Seek urgent medical attention if back or leg symptoms are accompanied by new loss of bladder or bowel control, numbness around the groin/saddle region, or significant or rapidly worsening weakness in the legs.

If your symptoms are severe, worsening, persistent or associated with other concerning symptoms, consult a qualified medical professional for an appropriate evaluation.
