An alternative Medical treatment for sciatica is called chiropractic, says Tom Gehrmann from Colorado Springs. Patients that tried this treatment method didn't take drugs and felt relieved. Chiropractic is safe to use on patients.

A chiropractor called Tom Gehrmann states how chiropractic can be used for sciatica. Tom Gehrmann has worked as a licensed chiropractor in Colorado Springs for two decades. He loves Colorado Springsbecause of its natural beauty.

Tom explains that Sciatica is commonly experienced by more than 30% of the population.

People who experience small sciatica pain feel relieved without taking anything. Those with severe sciatica have weak muscles and feel extreme pain.

Patients feel pain when their sciatic-nerve is pinched. This discomfort is called sciatic pain. These patients' nerves traveled from their backs downward to each hip. Then the nerves moved to both legs of the patients. When the patients feel pain, the pain occurs in any areas the nerves travel to. Some patients feel sciatic pain only on their left or right body parts. It can be extreme pain or dull pain. The pain may come as though the patient is electrocuted. It may also come as a throbbing ache. Patients feel weakness or numbness in their legs, says Tom Gehrmann.
