Sciatica is pain, tingling or weakness that runs from your low back down one leg. It means the sciatic nerve is upset. At Inside Health Clinic in Oakville, we use the Deep Healing Method to find out why. We look for the root cause, so we can treat the real problem and not only the pain.
The sciatic nerve is the longest nerve in your body. It starts in your low back and runs down each leg. When it is pressed on or irritated, you can feel it all the way down.
Your metabolism matters too. Your body uses nutrients, blood flow and sleep to keep nerves calm and to repair tissue. When those are off, a sore nerve can stay sore. The cause is different for each person. Here are some common ones:
Two people can feel the same leg pain for very different reasons. That is why we find out why for you.
Our Deep Healing Method looks for the root cause, then works on it in three steps. Each step builds on the one before it.
First, we test and check. We do not guess.
For sciatica, we start with a chiropractic assessment of your low back, hips and nerves. A subluxation is found only by a chiropractic consult or assessment, and by X-rays if needed. We also check how your body is working inside, so we can see what feeds the pain.
Tests we may use: blood work and our naturopathic assessment.
Next, we take away what is in the way of healing.
This can be what is pressing on the nerve, and what keeps the area irritated. Detox means we help your body clear what builds up, like the triggers that keep inflammation going.

Sciatica is pain, tingling, numbness or weakness along the sciatic nerve. It often shows up in one leg. It is a sign that the nerve is pressed on or irritated.
It can come from a disc, a tight muscle, a stuck spine joint, long-term inflammation or low nutrient levels. The reason is different for each person, so we test to find yours.
We start with a chiropractic assessment of your spine, hips and nerves. We also use tests like blood work to see how your body is working inside. X-rays are used only if needed.
Your plan may include chiropractic, spinal decompression, Class IV laser and acupuncture. We choose what fits you after the assessment.
It is a 3-step way to find and treat the root cause. Step 1 is Data: we test to learn why. Step 2 is Remove obstacles: we take away what is in the way. Step 3 is Replace: we put back what is low and learn why it was low.
We check more than 50 biomarkers. These are body signs that show how your body is working. You also get a free strategy call with a naturopathic doctor to talk about the best next steps. This is a limited-time offer.
