Frequently asked questions about Sciatica

Sciatica often presents as a sharp, shooting pain that travels from the lower back through the buttock and down one leg. It may also cause tingling, numbness, or weakness in the leg. Symptoms vary in intensity depending on the cause of the nerve irritation.

Physiotherapy is highly effective in managing and treating sciatica by addressing its root causes. While some cases resolve completely with therapy, others may require ongoing management, especially if linked to chronic conditions.

While mild cases may improve with time and self-care, professional treatment often speeds recovery and prevents recurrence. Chronic or severe cases typically require expert intervention for optimal outcomes.

Specific exercises can be highly beneficial for sciatica, but they must be correctly prescribed. Our physiotherapists will guide you through appropriate exercises based on your condition and progress.

The duration varies, but most acute episodes improve within 4-12 weeks with appropriate treatment. Chronic cases may require longer management periods, but significant improvement is usually achievable with proper care.
