Osteopathy for Sciatica: A Holistic Approach to Pain Relief
At The Barefoot Osteo Warrnambool, we understand that sciatica is a condition that affects millions of people worldwide, often manifesting as sharp, shooting pain that radiates from the lower back down the legs. Caused by irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve—the largest nerve in the body—this condition can significantly impact daily life, making simple tasks like sitting, walking, or standing uncomfortable. The effects of sciatica can extend beyond physical pain, leading to emotional distress and decreased productivity as sufferers navigate daily activities with difficulty.
