Sciatica treatment in Midtown Atlanta

That shooting, burning pain down your leg has a cause — and it’s usually treatable without surgery. We find what’s pinching the nerve and relieve it.

Understanding It

Sciatica is a signal, not the problem itself

Sciatica is the name for pain that travels along the sciatic nerve — from the lower back, through the buttock, and down the leg. But sciatica is a symptom. The real problem is whatever is compressing or irritating that nerve, most often a herniated or bulging disc, or a misaligned joint.

That’s why simply chasing the leg pain rarely works. We locate the actual source of the nerve compression with a full exam and imaging, then relieve the pressure directly — commonly with spinal decompression and adjustments.

Common Questions

What patients ask

What actually causes sciatica?
Most often a herniated or bulging disc pressing on the nerve root, or a misaligned vertebra. Less commonly, tight muscles compress the nerve. Imaging helps us identify which it is in your case.
Is spinal decompression good for sciatica?
Frequently, yes — especially when a disc is the cause. Decompression relieves the pressure on the disc and nerve directly, which is why it’s often central to our sciatica plans.
How soon will the leg pain stop?
Many patients feel reduced intensity within the first weeks, though full resolution depends on the cause and severity. Your Report of Findings will set realistic expectations.
