Sciatica

Sciatica is usually caused by a bone spur or herniated disc in your spine. It often affects one side of your body, and pain can be felt from the spine down your leg. Sciatica can be debilitating and keep you from doing even the simplest everyday tasks. Orthobiologics Associates offers safe, effective, and non-surgical treatment for Sciatica.

Herniation, bone spurs, fragmentation, and reduction in cushioning of the discs between vertebrae can cause you to lose flexibility, suffer pain and create weakness in your limbs. It may cause agony in your neck, back, legs, thighs, and buttocks. The muscle spasms and stiffness can be unbearable at times. But we can help with your pain and healing.

Stem Cells for Sciatica

Our Cell Therapy Ortho-Biologics is a non-surgical procedure that can be completed in our office. It offers superior advantages over surgery, including avoiding painful and lengthy recovery periods that are usually required to restore mobility, strength, and range of motion.

Cell Therapy Ortho-Biologics leverages two natural regenerative therapies — stem cell injections for sciatica and PRP for sciatica — to treat both the symptoms and underlying nerve problems associated with this often-debilitating chronic condition. With treatment, many patients experience results within weeks, though full recovery may take up to a year. The outcome will vary depending on the severity of your problem.

We stimulate regeneration and healing by introducing natural stem cells into the affected areas. This safe and effective procedure is quick, painless, and minimally invasive. Most patients report returning to normal daily activities within 24-48 hours.

Proper bracing may help with your Sciatica symptoms and may also allow you to avoid surgery or other forms of treatment. Professional fitting of a brace may keep you from further damage and put you on the path to healing. We stock various equipment in our clinics and will match you with the proper brace for your condition and lifestyle if one is needed. 

Having various tools at our disposal allows us to provide holistic sciatica pain relief, help you manage many symptoms, and ensure your best outcome. Contact us today for a consultation to determine how we can assist with your recovery from Sciatica.

Why You Shouldn’t Ignore Sciatica Symptoms

Although sciatica often causes debilitating pain and mobility impairments, many people with symptoms of the condition leave it undiagnosed and untreated. If you have sciatica symptoms, however, ignoring them could leave you with chronic and potentially severe back pain, weakness, tingling and numbness, muscle stiffness, mobility issues, and difficulty sleeping.

If untreated sciatica worsens over time, it may even lead to permanent nerve damage, especially in persons with diabetes. And in some cases, unaddressed sciatica may progress into cauda equina syndrome, a medical emergency characterized by severe low back and leg pain, numbness and tingling of the buttocks and legs, burning sensations in the lower extremities, weakness, and incontinence. In very serious cases, the condition can cause a loss of sensation in the lower body, permanent motor dysfunction, and even paralysis of the affected limbs.

Fortunately, timely, noninvasive or minimally invasive treatment can significantly lower your risk of developing severe chronic pain and permanent nerve damage caused by sciatica. At Orthobiologics Associates, we specialize in holistic medicine for sciatica pain. For more than 15 years, we’ve been committed to helping our patients overcome this debilitating health challenge and improve their quality of life.

We leverage advanced medical technology and a variety of sciatica functional medicine therapies to provide our patients with the highest level of safe, effective, compassionate care.
