Sciatica and radiating leg pain assessment in Enmore.
Radiating pain, tingling or numbness can arise for different reasons. A careful assessment helps identify relevant findings and discuss chiropractic care and spinal decompression options.
Sciatica is commonly used to describe pain or altered sensation that travels from the lower back or buttock into the leg. The pattern, severity and contributing structures can vary between people.
An individual assessment helps your chiropractor understand your presentation and discuss the available options.
02
How we assess radiating symptoms
Your visit may include discussion of symptom behaviour, strength, sensation, spinal and hip movement, and activities that aggravate or ease the problem. Existing scans can be considered when relevant.
Your chiropractor will explain the findings and available care options.
03
Spinal decompression within your treatment
Spinal decompression is offered as part of general chiropractic care at ChiroRelief, unless contraindicated after assessment.
Movement advice, activity modification and rehabilitation may also form part of an individual plan.

Talk with a ChiroRelief chiropractor about your options.
No. Symptoms travelling into a leg can have several causes. Your clinician considers the pattern of symptoms, history and examination findings rather than assuming a disc is responsible.
