Targeted physiotherapy for radiating leg pain caused by lumbar nerve compression.
Sciatica is characterized by pain radiating from the lower back through the buttock and down the back of the leg, often reaching the calf or foot. The pain may feel sharp, burning, or electric-like and typically worsens with sitting, coughing, or sneezing. Numbness, tingling, or a "pins and needles" sensation is common along the sciatic nerve distribution. Patients may experience muscle weakness in the affected leg, difficulty walking, standing up from a chair, or climbing stairs. Symptoms are usually unilateral (one side) and can range from mild discomfort to debilitating pain.
The most common cause is a herniated lumbar disc pressing on the sciatic nerve root, typically at the L4-L5 or L5-S1 levels. Piriformis syndrome — where the piriformis muscle in the buttock compresses the nerve — is another frequent trigger, especially in cyclists and runners. Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal), degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, and pregnancy can also cause sciatic irritation. Prolonged sitting for long commutes in Bengaluru traffic and poor posture at desks contribute significantly to symptom onset.
Sciatica Treatment affects thousands of patients across Bengaluru each year, disrupting work, sleep, and daily activity. Left untreated, it can compound into chronic pain, reduced mobility, and downstream issues in adjacent joints. Our physiotherapists at Pro Physiotherapy in JP Nagar, Bengaluru use a diagnostic-first approach — we assess your specific presentation before prescribing a treatment plan tailored to your body and lifestyle.
Our physiotherapy protocol combines nerve mobilization techniques (neurodynamics), targeted stretching of the piriformis and hip rotators, and progressive core strengthening. We use directional-preference exercises based on the McKenzie method, spinal decompression manoeuvres, dry needling, and manual therapy to reduce nerve compression. Patients receive customized education on sitting posture, sleeping positions, and lifting mechanics. For persistent cases, we coordinate with orthopedic specialists in Bengaluru for imaging or medical management. Most patients see meaningful improvement within 3–8 weeks.
