Sciatica is a condition characterised by pain that runs from the lower back to the buttock, down to the lower leg, following the sciatic nerve. Sciatica can be extremely uncomfortable and generally occurs when there is a herniated disc or a bone putting pressure on the lumber spinal nerve area. Chiropractic adjustments have been found to be extremely effective in relieving sciatica, which is a common cause of pain in the hip area.
For both hip pain and sciatica, we offer a gentle and effective treatment method through chiropractic care. Seeing a chiropractor can relieve immediate pain by correcting pelvic and hip alignment, as well as increase range of motion in the hip and lower back area.
A chiropractor for hip pain can assess your condition, provide immediate pain relief through manipulation and adjustments, and provide a plan to treat the underlying cause of your hip pain. Ultimately, we want to ensure that you’re more comfortable and pain-free, but we also want to ensure that we’ve identified and rectified the source of the pain and can improve your overall mobility.
The team at Spinal Works Chiropractic in Townsville have extensive experience in treating and managing hip pain concerns for our clients. We work with young athletes, those who work with occupational hip pain, and older clients who have decreased range of motion and mobility in the hip area. Whatever the cause of your hip pain, we’re confident that we can help you find a long term solution – your journey to pain free living starts here.
