Sciatica and Neuropathies

Acupuncture for Sciatica and Nerve Pain

Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve is compressed or irritated, generating pain that radiates from the lower back into the leg. Acupuncture works by decompressing surrounding tissues, reducing local inflammation, and modulating pain signals through the nervous system. It is an effective, side-effect-free alternative for those seeking to avoid medication or surgery.

Conditions treated

• Acute and chronic sciatica
• Peripheral neuropathy
• Diabetic neuropathy
• Cervical radicular pain
• Piriformis syndrome
• Tingling and numbness in limbs

Acupuncture treatment outcomes

Acupuncture stimulates nerve regeneration, improves nerve conduction, and relieves perineural inflammation. Clinical research shows it can significantly reduce sciatic pain and improve function in patients who have not adequately responded to conventional treatments.
