SUFFERING FROM SCIATICA?
The Syndrome of Sciatica could affect the quality of your life. The sciatic nerve is a large nerve that runs alongside the hip joint down to the lower limb. It runs all the way from the lower back to the feet on both sides of the body and supplies sensation to those areas. A condition called sciatica occurs in the body when the sciatic nerve begins to compress. This is most commonly caused by posture, prolonged sitting, herniated disk, injury, accident, degeneration, or a bone spur in the spine that presses on the nerve.

MEDICAL ACUPUNCTURE FOR THE TREATMENT OF SCIATICA
Medical Acupuncture is very beneficial in the treatment of Sciatica Syndrome. Our surgical steel needles are hair thin and they stimulate nerves, which sends a signal to the brain to release beta-endorphins. These chemicals work as the body’s own pain control chemicals to lower pain thresholds. Acupuncture is used to treat a variety of symptoms, especially pain, and has been demonstrated to be effective, safe, and very well accepted by patients through the test of time. Acupuncture is highly efficacious in treating the pain associated with sciatica. The NIH (National Institute of Health), supports research on acupuncture as a treatment for a range of diseases including pain and chronic pain conditions.
