Sciatica

Sciatica Relief with Acupuncture

Sciatica is a type of nerve pain caused by irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back down through the hips, buttocks, and legs. It often causes sharp, shooting pain, tingling, or numbness that can make standing, walking, or sitting uncomfortable.

​

Common Symptoms Include:

  • Pain radiating from the lower back down one leg

  • Tingling, numbness, or burning sensation

  • Muscle weakness in the leg or foot

  • Pain that worsens with prolonged sitting or movement

How Acupuncture Helps

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), sciatica is often seen as a blockage in the flow of Qi (energy) and blood. Our acupuncture treatments target key points to:

  • Reduce inflammation and nerve compression

  • Relieve muscle tension and spasms

  • Stimulate healing by improving blood circulation

  • Calm the nervous system and reduce pain sensitivity

  • Restore balance and prevent recurrence

We may also incorporate cupping therapy, moxibustion, and Chinese herbal medicine to enhance your recovery.

Many patients experience significant pain relief and improved mobility after just a few sessions, especially when combined with a personalized care plan.

Don’t let sciatica limit your daily life. Book a consultation today and explore how acupuncture can bring lasting relief.
