Care combines adjustments, soft-tissue work and home exercises your provider progresses.

Calming sciatica at our Troutdale clinic

Sciatica pain follows the path of the sciatic nerve, from the low back through the buttock and down the leg. The source is usually a disc, a stiff joint, or tight hip muscles pressing on or irritating the nerve, and your exam is built to tell which.

Care often starts with positions and movements that ease the leg pain, plus adjustments and soft-tissue work, then builds into strength and mobility exercises as the nerve settles. Read our sciatica guide for the bigger picture.

FAQ

Common questions about sciatica in Troutdale

Will I need surgery for sciatica?

Your exam helps answer that. Chiropractic care and exercise are a common starting point, and if we find signs that call for a medical or surgical opinion, we refer you.

Is sciatica care covered after a crash?

Typically, yes. Crash-related sciatica care falls under your Oregon PIP when it’s reasonable and necessary, and we bill PIP directly. We also work with most health plans.

Does the Troutdale clinic have space for sciatica rehab exercises?

Yes. Our Troutdale clinic has a rehab and exercise room. Your chiropractor may teach and progress your sciatica exercises there, then give you a home program for between visits. Our low back home exercises show each move step by step. Call or text (503) 491-9266.
