If you're one of those many people who suffers from Sciatica you'll be familiar with the severe pain and discomfort this condition cause. Pain can be transmitted down the back of the leg into the knee, the pain can be constant or intermittent and it can be a burning or lightning-like sensation.
Sciatica is caused by compression and irritation of the Sciatic nerve, there are a number of causes for this but sometimes a simple tightness of the Piriformis muscle is the culprit. In these cases a course of deep tissue massage and myofascial release of the Piriformis, followed by a regime of stretching can be a very effective treatment for this problem, so if you're looking for drug-free pain relief from this condition make an appointment.
