bitter lake seattle chiropractor for sciatica


Sciatica is a serious condition but is often mis-diagnosed. True sciatica has pain that radiates from the low back down into the heel. There is often numbness and tingling, loss of skin sensation, and/or weakness of the foot. Often times, this condition can be helped conservatively without steroid medications and/or surgery depending on the cause of the nerve impingement. Chiropractic can help this problem without putting anything into the body or taking anything out. Instead, we adjust the cause of the problem to actually remove the pressure off the nerve, rather than simply making you feel better without addressing the underlying cause. At our office, we do a thorough orthopedic, neurological, and chiropractic examination including x-rays to find out exactly whats wrong. If it's a chiropractic problem I will tell you and if not I will try and find someone else who could help you. Call Dr. Silliker at 206-440-7700.
