Sciatica Candidacy Evaluation

Request Your Sciatica Evaluation

We identify exactly which nerve is compressed, then give you a direct answer on what will help.

Honest evaluation. If sciatica treatment isn’t right for your case, we’ll tell you and point you toward what is.

Sciatica Rarely Goes Away On Its Own

Stretches helped for a day. Painkillers dulled it, then wore off. Maybe a general adjustment gave temporary relief, then the pain came right back. That pattern usually means the nerve itself is still compressed, and the underlying cause has not been addressed.

Treating sciatica means finding and relieving the compression, not just managing the symptom.

What’s Actually Causing Your Sciatic Pain

Sciatica is a symptom, not a diagnosis. The pain radiating down your leg usually traces back to a herniated disc, spinal stenosis, or a compressed nerve root in the lower back. Treating the leg pain without addressing the compression rarely holds. At Bolt Chiropractic, we identify the source first.

Primary Treatment Spinal decompression treatment for sciatica at Bolt Chiropractic

Spinal Decompression

Relieves pressure on the compressed nerve root causing your sciatic pain, treating the source rather than the symptom.

Shockwave therapy treatment at Bolt Chiropractic

Shockwave Therapy

Addresses tight or inflamed soft tissue around the sciatic nerve that can worsen compression symptoms.

Therapeutic laser treatment at Bolt Chiropractic

Therapeutic Laser

Reduces inflammation along the nerve pathway, supporting relief between decompression sessions.

How Your Evaluation Works

1

Nerve and Movement Testing

We test reflexes, strength, and movement patterns to locate exactly where the nerve is compressed.

2

Imaging Review

Any MRI or X-ray you bring gets reviewed to confirm what the exam finds.

3

Direct Answer

You leave knowing what is causing your sciatica and whether decompression can help.
