The basics
What is sciatica relief?
Sciatica is the name we give to symptoms, pain, numbness, burning, or weakness running down one leg, that come from irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve. The nerve itself is rarely the problem. The problem is almost always at the spine: a disc bulge, a tight piriformis, a stuck SI joint, or a degenerated lumbar segment squeezing the nerve root. Treat the cause and the leg quiets down.
Our process
How sciatica relief works at Synergy Spine

Imaging review (or referral) to identify the lumbar level driving symptoms.
- 03
A combination of specific spinal adjustments, decompression, and soft-tissue work.
- 04
Targeted home exercises so symptoms don't return the moment you leave.

FAQ
Common questions about sciatica relief in Cochiti Pueblo
QHow long does it take to fix sciatica with chiropractic care in Cochiti Pueblo?
Most Cochiti Pueblo patients see meaningful improvement within 13 weeks once the cause is identified. Long-standing or disc-driven sciatica may need 68 weeks of combined adjustments, decompression, and rehab. We re-exam regularly so you can see the change in objective terms.
QWill I need an MRI before treatment?
Not necessarily. We start with a thorough neurologic exam. If your symptoms suggest a disc, if there are red flags, or if you're not improving as expected, we'll order or refer for imaging.
QAre injections or surgery better than chiropractic for sciatica?
Injections quiet symptoms but rarely fix the cause. Surgery has its place, but only after conservative care has been given a fair trial. The published evidence supports conservative care first for the vast majority of sciatica cases.
QCan I keep working out with sciatica?
Usually yes, we modify around it. Stopping all activity is rarely the answer; the goal is to keep moving in ways that don't aggravate the nerve. We give you a list on day one.
