Dr. Jimenez Sciatica Treatment Team. Dr. Alex Jimenez presents a variety of authored article archives associated with sciatica, a common and frequently reported series of symptoms affecting most of the population. Sciatica pain can vary widely. It may feel like a mild tingling, dull ache, or burning sensation. In some cases, the pain is severe enough to make a person unable to move. The pain most often occurs on one side. Sciatica occurs when there is pressure or damage to the sciatic nerve.
This nerve starts in the lower back and runs down the back of each leg as it controls the muscles of the back of the knee and lower leg. It also provides sensation to the back of the thigh, part of the lower leg, and the sole. Dr. Jimenez explains how sciatica and its symptoms can be relieved through the use of chiropractic treatment. We have had 20+ years of successfully treating sciatica non-surgically. We provide sound clinical protocols that help restore pain-free function for complex clinical cases of sciatic pain syndromes.
