Sciatica

Dr. Pete Lazarnick (Dr. Pete) treats a variety of chiropractic conditions, including sciatic pain. Sciatica is less of a medical condition and more of a symptom. When one is experiencing sciatic pain, what they are really saying is that their sciatic nerve is irritated or pinched. Dr. Peter Lazarnick (Dr. Pete) can perform a physical examination and create a treatment plan just for you.


 


The sciatic nerve is the largest nerve in the body. It runs all the way through the torso, buttocks, and legs. Sciatica is often caused by herniated or bulging discs, spinal stenosis, or spinal misalignment. If you are experiencing sharp, burning sensations through the buttocks or legs, lower back pain, tingling or loss of sensation in the extremities, or difficulty controlling your legs or feet, don’t wait to contact Dr. Pete Lazarnick (Dr. Pete).


 


Until the cause of the tension is found, you will not be able to properly heal. Sciatic pain may come and go irregularly. Often, traditional medical treatment is not successful. Our noninvasive treatments find much greater success. There a few different treatments that Dr. Pete Lazarnick (Dr. Pete) may recommend. Chiropractic adjustments can restore spinal and disc alignment. Certain forms of manual therapy can relieve the muscles pinching the nerves.


 


If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, contact Dr. Pete Lazarnick (Dr. Pete) today. Our office is located in Carrollton, GA. To schedule your appointment, visit our website or call 770-832-2226.
