What if You Could Relieve Sciatica Pain without Drugs, Shots or Surgery?

What is Sciatica?

Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve—the longest nerve in the body—becomes irritated, pinched, or compressed in the lower back. The most common cause is a herniated or bulging disc pressing on the nerve root. The sciatic nerve runs from the lower back, through the hips and buttocks, and down each leg, ending just below the knee.

What Does Sciatica Feel Like?

Sciatica pain can feel very different from person to person. Some describe it as a sharp, shooting, or “electric-like” pain, while others feel a constant dull ache or burning sensation. The pain may come and go, but while its source is in the lower back, it is typically felt down one leg. Sciatica is very common—affecting about 40% of people in the U.S. at some point in their lives.

How Spinal Decompression Helps Relieve Sciatica

Spinal decompression therapy directly addresses one of the leading causes of sciatica—pressure on the sciatic nerve from a herniated, bulging, or degenerated disc. This gentle, non-surgical treatment uses controlled traction to create space between the vertebrae, allowing the affected disc to retract naturally. By reducing pressure on the sciatic nerve and improving circulation to the injured area, spinal decompression promotes healing, reduces inflammation, and relieves the radiating pain, numbness, and tingling that sciatica can cause. Unlike temporary pain relief methods, decompression targets the root problem so you can experience lasting relief and restored function.
