Sciatica.
WE WANT YOU TO FEEL, MOVE AND LIVE FREELY AND FULLY.
SCIATICA, SIMPLY PUT MEANS PAIN IN THE LEG.
More specifically it refers to a burning, tingling, aching pain in the leg that is associated with compression of the sciatic nerve or nerve root structures stemming from the lumbar spine.
This compression can be caused by one of two things. Structures impinging within the lumbar spine (discs, facet joints, veterbral compression), or tightening of muscles that surround the sciatic nerve, most commonly in the lower back & glute muscles (lumbar erectors, QL, piriformis, glute med, glute min, glute max, deep rotators). Sometimes the problem can be from a tight hamstring or calf, muscle.
