How To Put an End To Sciatica and stiffness - Without pain-killers and without risking surgery!
Sciatica can be a really intense pain that runs down the back or the side of the leg, which is usually caused by a disc herniation or degenerative changes to the spine, or even tight muscles in the back of the hip that cause pain to radiate down the leg.
“Why is This Happening to Me?” or “Why Am I Still Suffering With sciatica After Putting Up With It For 6 Months (Maybe More)?"
Most people think that when they get Sciatica, it’s just going to go away on it’s own.
That they’ll wake up one morning and like “magic”, it’ll be as if sciatica never happened… But then 6 months later you’re still living with sciatica – often even worse than it was when it came on.
Does This Sound Like You?
People suffering with pain in their leg generally describe it like a hot poker, a shooting pain or intense pins and needles.
Early on when you’re dealing with sciatica, everything is uncomfortable. It’s really difficult to find a position that eases the pain and relaxes you. Transitional movements such as getting in and out of a car, or in and out of bed, as well as even sitting or laying for too long tend to be really painful.

Patient Success Story
This is where Tandem Physical Therapy steps in, and we help people just like you to understand why they’re having this pain, and where it is coming from.
We give you some much needed clarity and reassurance about your condition first, followed by an in-depth analysis to determine the root cause of your sciatica.
This is really important, because somebody who is having sciatica from a herniated disc needs a very different treatment than someone who’s having sciatica because of some degenerative changes in their spine. Therefore, we need to determine the root cause first so that we can put you on the right path and ensure that you’re getting the right treatment.
From there, we’re working with you to develop personalized pain relief strategies at home.
We start reintroducing comfortable movements, and then get to the point where we can start strengthening your body, fortifying it and protecting it from this horrific pain to prevent it from coming back anytime soon.
