Sciatica is a set of symptoms ; such as pain, irritation, numbness, tingling and difficulty moving caused by compression of either the lumbar nerves ( L4-L5), the sacral nerves (S1-3), or the left and/or right sciatic nerve(s).
The pain is felt in the lower back, buttocks, hips, thighs, legs and feet.
CranioSacral Therapy is ideal for Sciatica because this light touch manual therapy releases the pain that sciatica causes in a non-invasive way.
With the patient fully clothed lying on a massage table, gentle pressure (the weight of a nickel) is applied to the affected areas.
The Central nervous system receives this information via the spinal or sciatic nerves being touched, and relaxes the neural pathways; easing compression , irritation and pain.
This easing of pain results creates ease and optimum well-being in daily life activities. Normal function is restored.
CranioSacral Therapy allows the body to self-correct its restrictions and bring it back to balance.
