Sciatica Broward
Sciatica Broward
Experiencing sharp pain, tingling, or numbness that radiates from your lower back down your leg? You might be suffering from sciatica—a condition caused by compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve. This large nerve travels from your lower spine through the hips and legs, and when it’s inflamed, it can cause anything from mild discomfort to debilitating pain. At Theracave in Broward County, we specialize in personalized physical therapy programs that target the source of sciatic nerve pain, aiming to reduce pressure, improve mobility, and restore comfort.
Sciatica can develop from a variety of issues, including herniated discs, spinal misalignment, or even tight muscles like the piriformis. Left untreated, it can make standing, walking, or even sitting for long periods a challenge. Our approach focuses on addressing the underlying cause through corrective exercises, manual therapy, and posture education. With early intervention and consistent care, many people find lasting relief and are able to return to their normal routines without pain.

Q&A
What exactly is sciatica?
Sciatica is a condition where the sciatic nerve is compressed or irritated, usually by a disc issue in the lower spine. This results in pain that radiates from the lower back down through the leg, typically affecting only one side.
How long does sciatica usually last?
Acute sciatica may last a few days to a few weeks, while chronic sciatica can persist longer or come and go over time. With proper treatment, most people recover without surgery.
Can physical therapy help with sciatica?
Yes, physical therapy is one of the most effective treatments for sciatica. It focuses on relieving pressure on the nerve, improving posture and core strength, and preventing future episodes through targeted exercise and stretching.
When should I see a professional for sciatica?
You should seek professional help if your pain lasts longer than a week, worsens, or is accompanied by numbness, tingling, or weakness in the leg. Early treatment can prevent the condition from becoming more serious.
