Physiotherapy for Sciatica in Mosley Common, Walkden & Worsley

Sciatica can be one of the most frustrating and debilitating types of pain.

Symptoms often start in the lower back or buttock before travelling down the leg and can range from mild discomfort to severe pain.

Many people struggle with sitting, walking, driving or sleeping comfortably.

What Is Sciatica?

Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve becomes irritated or compressed.

This can result in symptoms such as:

✔ Pain travelling down the leg

✔ Buttock pain

✔ Pins and needles

✔ Numbness

✔ Burning sensations

✔ Weakness in the leg or foot

Symptoms can affect one side of the body and may come and go or remain persistent.

  • Disc irritation
