Sciatica, or Lumbar Radiculopathy, is a term referring to leg nerve pain brought on by irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve. While sciatic nerve pain is most commonly felt throughout the lower back, it can go as far as the foot. Chronic sciatic nerve pain can be debilitating, and physical therapy for sciatica can effectively treat it.

What Are the Symptoms of Sciatica?
Sciatica pain comes from a nerve that runs down your lower back, through your buttocks, and into your thigh and leg. For some, instances of sciatica are short and intense, others feel this pain on a more chronic or long-term basis. Some of the symptoms of sciatica include:
Shooting pain from your back down your leg
Stabbing feeling that makes walking difficult
Numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness in one leg
Bowel or bladder changes
Radiating pain that comes in waves
A feeling like a jolt or electric shock in your back
Reduced mobility or difficulty walking
Muscle spasms in your low back and lower extremities

Physical Therapy for Sciatica
Physical therapy is often a large part of any successful treatment plan for back pain and sciatica is a classic example of common back pain. Your therapist, a sciatica pain specialist, will help you improve strength and overall fitness in your back and surrounding muscles by using exercise and movement techniques. Over time, you'll see an increase in strength and flexibility that will relieve your pain entirely or alleviate it enough for you to continue daily activities.
