If you’ve ever experienced sharp, shooting pain running from your lower back down into your leg, you know how disruptive sciatica can be. It can make simple activities—like walking, sitting at your desk, or even sleeping—feel impossible. At Good Life Chiropractic in Sartell, MN, we specialize in helping patients find relief from sciatica by addressing the true underlying causes instead of just covering up symptoms.
Unlike quick “patch” fixes, our approach combines advanced chiropractic techniques, healing technologies, and targeted exercises to restore function and get you back to living pain-free.
What Causes Sciatica?
Sciatica happens when the sciatic nerve—the largest nerve in your body—becomes irritated or compressed. This often comesfrom:
- Bulging or herniated discs
- Spinal misalignments
- Tight muscles pressing on nerves
- Weakness in the core or hips
- Past injuries or repetitive stress
While pain medications or injections may temporarily mask the pain, they don’t correct the underlying dysfunction. That’s where our care comes in.
Our Unique Approach to Sciatica Care
At Good Life Chiropractic, we use a comprehensive, disc-focused strategy designed not only to relieve pain but to restore balance, mobility, and long-term health. Here’s what sets us apart:
- Disc-Based Adjustments with the Gonstead Technique
We use the Gonstead chiropractic technique, a precise and highly effective method focused on restoring proper alignment to the spine—especially the discs that often trigger sciatic nerve pain. By targeting the root cause, adjustments reduce nerve irritation and improve the body’s natural ability to heal. -
Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) for Faster Healing
Our office utilizes low level laser therapy, an FDA-cleared, non-invasive technology that reduces inflammation, promotes cellular repair, and accelerates recovery. This means less pain, quicker healing, and a faster return to normal activities. -
Percussive & Vibration Therapy for Muscle Relaxation
Tight muscles around the spine and hips often worsen sciatica. We use gentle percussive and vibration therapy to release tension, improve circulation, and help the body respond better to chiropractic adjustments. -
Custom Exercise Plans to Correct Weaknesses
Pain often comes back if weaknesses or imbalances aren’t addressed. That’s why we teach patients specific stretches and strengthening exercises for the core, hips, and glutes. These exercises stabilize the spine, prevent flare-ups, and give patients tools to take control of their recovery.
