What are Our Clients Saying About Our Services?
Can sciatica be treated without relying on long-term medication?
Yes. Most cases improve through physiotherapy, targeted exercises, manual therapy, and lifestyle changes. Medication is used only when necessary for short-term relief.
How many treatment sessions does it typically take to feel relief?
Many people notice initial improvement within 2–4 sessions, though full recovery depends on the severity and cause of the nerve compression.
Will physiotherapy or massage worsen my nerve pain initially?
Some mild soreness is normal, but treatment should not increase your nerve pain. We adjust techniques based on how your body responds.
Do you offer customised exercise plans based on my lifestyle or job?
Absolutely. Your exercise routine is tailored to your daily activities, whether you sit long hours, lift at work, or have limited mobility.
Can sciatica return even after successful treatment, and how can I prevent it?
Yes, it can recur if posture or movement habits don’t improve. Regular strengthening exercises and ergonomic adjustments help prevent flare-ups.
Is your treatment suitable for people with chronic or long-standing sciatica?
Yes. We treat both recent and long-term cases with specialised techniques aimed at restoring mobility and reducing nerve irritation.
Do you provide workplace or home ergonomic guidance to reduce flare-ups?
Yes. We help you modify your workspace, chairs, and daily movements to reduce spinal stress and protect the sciatic nerve.
What should I avoid doing at home to prevent irritating the sciatic nerve further?
Avoid heavy lifting, deep bending, prolonged sitting, and sudden twisting movements. We guide you on safe alternatives.
Is imaging (like X-ray or MRI) required for sciatica treatment?
Not always. Most cases can be treated without imaging, but scans may be recommended if symptoms are severe, persistent, or unclear.
