Sciatica Relief in Colorado Springs
Reclaim Mobility and Comfort
Sciatic pain can feel like being trapped in your own body—shooting pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness that radiates from your lower back down through your legs. At Freedom Chiropractic, we understand how debilitating this condition can be, and we’re passionate about helping you find real, lasting relief.
Understanding Your Sciatica
Contrary to popular belief, sciatica isn’t a diagnosis—it’s a symptom that points to an underlying problem. Our experienced team knows that sciatic pain can originate from multiple sources. Lumbar spine misalignments often create pressure on nerve roots, while disc issues including bulges or herniations can directly compress the sciatic nerve. Pelvic or sacrum imbalances frequently affect nerve pathways, and muscle tension, particularly in the piriformis muscle, can trap the sciatic nerve as it travels through the buttock.
Our Collaborative Approach
At Freedom Chiropractic, you’ll benefit from our team’s collective expertise. We take time to understand the true origin of your pain through a comprehensive consultation to understand your health history and lifestyle, thorough examination to identify structural and functional issues, advanced assessment tools including INSiGHT scans when appropriate, and X-rays to visualize alignment and rule out serious pathologies.
Personalized Treatment Pathway
Your sciatic pain is unique, and your treatment should be too. Our approach typically includes:
- Specific spinal adjustments to restore proper alignment and reduce nerve pressure
- Targeted soft tissue techniques to release muscle tension
- Personalized stretching protocols to improve flexibility
- Progressive strengthening exercises to stabilize and support your spine
Rather than just treating symptoms, we address the underlying neurological patterns that perpetuate pain cycles, helping your body heal naturally.
Beyond the Adjustment Table
True transformation happens when treatment extends beyond our office walls. We’ll empower you with ergonomic modifications for your home and workspace, posture awareness training to prevent future problems, movement strategies to incorporate throughout your day, and progressive home exercises to reinforce your care.

Many of our patients arrived after trying “everything else.” Like David, who avoided surgery after eight weeks of our corrective approach, or Jennifer, who returned to running after years of being sidelined by sciatic pain.
