Struggling with sciatica pain down your leg, buttock or lower back?
At Nathan Burns Acupuncture, treatment is focused on reducing nerve irritation, relieving muscle tension, and restoring movement—so you can get back to normal activity quickly.
With over 15 years experience treating back pain and nerve conditions, Nathan provides a safe, drug-free solution for sciatica, whether caused by disc issues, muscle tightness, or nerve sensitivity.
​
Sciatica is usually caused by irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve. This can cause symptoms that refer from the lower back into the buttock and leg. These often include sharp or burning pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness.
Common triggers include
-
Disc bulges or herniation
-
Tight muscles (glutes, piriformis)
-
Joint restriction in the lower back
-
Postural or loading issues
Acupuncture targets both the source of the problem and the referred symptoms.
Treatment helps to:
-
Reduce inflammation around the nerve
-
Relax tight muscles and shift discs which are compressing the nerve
-
Improve circulation and healing
-
Calm nerve sensitivity
This results in:
-
Reduced leg pain and tingling
-
Improved movement and flexibility
-
Faster recovery from flare-ups
This treatment is ideal if you:
-
Have pain running down your leg
-
Experience numbness or tingling
-
Have been diagnosed with a disc issue
-
Have tried physio, chiro, or rest with limited results
Many patients notice improvement within the first few treatments. Chronic cases may require a short course of care to stabilise and prevent recurrence.
