Do you ever experience sharp, shooting pain traveling from your lower back down one leg that stops you in your tracks? If yes, you’re likely dealing with sciatica.
Understanding What’s Behind the Pain
Sciatica happens when your sciatic nerve (the longest nerve in your body, running from your lower back all the way down each leg) becomes irritated or compressed. Several things can trigger this: herniated discs, bone spurs, spinal stenosis, or even tight muscles like the piriformis. You might experience lower back pain, hip or buttock discomfort, tingling or numbness radiating down your leg, or weakness in your foot.
Our Approach to Lasting Relief
Dr. Gerald Majer has been serving the Anaheim community for nearly five decades. He begins every case with a thorough examination to identify the root cause of your discomfort. Then he creates a personalized care plan just for you.
Your plan might include gentle spinal adjustments to relieve pressure on the nerve, the Thompson Drop Technique for precise yet comfortable care, and targeted exercises to support your body’s natural healing process. We also help you make simple lifestyle adjustments that can prevent future flare-ups. Many patients notice improvement within just a few visits as their body begins to heal.
“We’re not just chasing symptoms,” Dr. Majer explains. “When we restore proper spinal alignment and support healthy movement patterns, the body often resolves sciatica on its own. That’s the beauty of chiropractic care.”
