Causes
01
Causes of Sciatica
Sciatica is often caused by underlying spinal conditions or nerve compression. Common causes include:
1. Herniated or Bulging Disc
When a spinal disc bulges or ruptures, it can press against the sciatic nerve, causing sharp pain, numbness, or weakness.
2. Spinal Misalignment
Incorrect spinal posture or misaligned vertebrae can irritate the sciatic nerve, leading to chronic pain and discomfort.
3. Piriformis Syndrome
The piriformis muscle, located deep in the buttocks, can tighten or spasm, pinching the sciatic nerve and causing radiating pain.
4. Lumbar Spondylolisthesis
A slipped vertebra can press on nerve roots, leading to sciatica symptoms like leg pain and muscle weakness.
5. Spinal Stenosis
A narrowing of the spinal canal can put pressure on nerves, resulting in pain, tingling, and difficulty walking.
6. Poor Posture & Sedentary Lifestyle
Sitting for long hours, improper lifting techniques, and poor posture can lead to spinal strain and nerve compression.

Diagnosing Sciatica
A proper diagnosis is crucial to developing the right treatment plan. At Vida The Spine Clinic, we use advanced diagnostic techniques to identify the exact cause of sciatica, including:
1. Physical Examination
- Evaluating spinal alignment and posture
- Checking for muscle weakness and reflex changes
- Assessing range of motion in the lower back and legs
2. Nerve Tests
- Straight Leg Raise Test to check nerve irritation
- Muscle Strength Tests to assess nerve function
- Sensation Tests to detect numbness or tingling
3. Digital Imaging
In complex cases, we may recommend:
- X-rays to check for bone abnormalities
- MRI or CT scans (if necessary) to detect disc herniations or nerve compression

- Personalized Care – Every patient receives a tailored treatment plan based on their specific condition.
- Long-Term Pain Relief – We don’t just mask symptoms—we help you achieve lasting recovery.
Using soft tissue therapy and spinal manipulation, osteopathy improves blood flow, reduces inflammation, and speeds up the body's natural healing process.
This technique involves gentle spinal stretching to:
- Reduce pressure on compressed nerves
- Improve oxygen and nutrient supply to damaged discs
- Promote faster healing
Gentle spinal corrections help realign the vertebrae, relieve nerve pressure, and restore normal movement. This is especially effective for sciatica caused by disc misalignment or spinal compression.
A structured physiotherapy program includes:
- Stretching and strengthening exercises to support spinal health
- Postural correction to reduce sciatic nerve compression
- Manual therapy to improve flexibility and reduce muscle tension
Dry needling targets trigger points to release muscle tension, while myofascial release helps relieve deep-seated nerve compression.
We provide postural training and ergonomic advice for:
- Workplace adjustments to prevent sciatic nerve strain
- Sleeping position guidance to relieve pressure on the lower back
We design customized home exercise plans and educate patients on daily movement techniques to prevent recurring sciatic pain.
