Understanding Sciatica and How Chiropractic Care Can Help

He explains what sciatica actually is, why it causes that distinctive sharp, burning, or shooting pain that radiates down the leg, and what's happening in the body when it strikes. Dr. Ridos walks listeners through the most common causes and risk factors for sciatica, helping you understand whether what you're experiencing might be this condition. He also outlines how chiropractic care can address the root cause rather than simply masking the pain.
