Are you interested in all-natural pain relief without the need for surgery, steroids, or reliance on prescription medications? Our pain relief medicine clinic in Reno, Nevada offers cutting-edge therapies to help alleviate your pain.

Sciatica Symptoms

Many people wonder what sciatica feels like. Patients often describe the pain of sciatica as a slight discomfort to the most extreme unbearable pain. Sciatic pain can show up in different areas of the leg and foot, and many times the pain will come and go. Over years of time, people tend to go through periods of pain that typically intensify as the problem goes unchecked.

Patients usually feel sciatica pain symptoms in the lower back, down the thigh, all the way below the knee. You may also experience shooting pain that makes it difficult to stand up, sit, or sleep.

Common sciatica symptoms can include:

Causes of Sciatica

Understanding Sciatica

The pelvic and lumbar spine are usually the areas that a sciatic issue will start from. This area of the spine is very complicated, and it can be difficult to locate the problem. Our experienced team will work with you to zero in on the source.

Some patients say that all they did was bend over to pick up a piece of paper and they were hit with extreme pain. They don’t understand how an easy task caused them so much pain – the reality is that their condition was probably developing over years of time, and picking up that piece of paper happened to be the last straw. Most spinal problems don’t happen overnight, they build up over years of time.

Sciatica Treatment

Injections of Mesenchymal Tissues

Treatments containing stem cells and growth factors may help repair nerve damage. Injections containing stem cells create an environment of optimal healing for long-term, all-natural pain relief. By introducing these Wharton's jelly-derived stem cells and healing proteins into the areas where you require sciatica pain relief, your body can begin repairing itself without surgery.

We perform the injections at our regenerative medicine practice in Reno, Nevada. The process is relatively short, and you can usually return to your regular daily routine immediately after the treatment.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is also a natural, effective solution for sciatica pain treatment. Platelets are components of your blood that contain hundreds of proteins called growth factors. Best known for their clotting abilities, platelets are also essential for repairing injuries. We draw some of your blood, medically process it in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets and then inject it into your damaged area. The high concentration of platelets and growth factors speeds up the healing process as they are meant to do.

How Long Does It Take to Correct Sciatica?

Treatment length can vary significantly from person to person. Some people respond very fast while others take more time to recover. It really depends on the condition of the disc or the joints that the team has to correct. In most cases, the longer the issue persists, the longer it will take to achieve correction. When you get started with care, you’ll be surprised to know that it takes less time to fix the problem than it did to create it.

If you are serious about turning this problem around and avoiding surgery, call our team at Advanced Health Chiropractic today. We are here to answer any questions you have, and we look forward to meeting you soon!
