Sciatica Specialist
Medical Sciatica SpecialistMany orthopedists and orthopedic surgeons are considered experts in sciatica treatment. These doctors have been trained in traditional medical science and will typically employ these methods when attempting to resolve the painful complaint. Conservative modalities, such as physical therapy, heat and ice and drugs will usually be the first line of defense against acute sciatica. If the patient develops chronic sciatic nerve pain, then the therapy options will be escalated to include epidural injections and stronger drugs. If these also fail in curing the pain, surgery is the next logical step, but is often recommended even far earlier in the treatment regimen...Chiropractic Sciatica SpecialistSome chiropractors also specialize in treating radicular pain. This profession is uniquely qualified to deal with all varieties of back pain, for it is dorsopathy sufferers who make up the overwhelming percentage of their clientele. Chiropractors will virtually always employ manual spinal manipulations, called adjustments, to treat back and leg pain. Some chiropractors also rely on complementary therapies, such as exercise, reiki, massage or TENS treatments to provide a diversified approach to sciatica care. Chiropractors are highly individualized in their methods and each one will perform different techniques for each specific sciatica condition.Sciatica Specialist AdviceI have been to many back pain specialists in my time, from a wide range of healing arts. Some were fantastic healers and I could recognize their worth, despite their inability to cure my pain. Others were a complete joke and their treatments and lectures would have been hilarious, if it were not for the high price tag I paid to be entertained by their utter nonsense…However, all told, the best specialist I ever met was the one who helped me to cure my own pain… Dr. John Sarno. This classically trained medical doctor broke free from convention decades ago and never looked back. He has enjoyed an amazing cure rate with his patients and has even cured millions who have simply read one or more of his books. NOW THAT IS A SPECIALIST! Many props to Dr. Sarno... Best of all, he actually did not do anything to cure me except open my eyes with his words. Dr. Sarno has taken medicine to a whole new level by empowering the patient to understand the facts about sciatica and how to cure the condition by themselves… This is TRUE HEALING. I highly recommend his books and if you are ever in NEW YORK, you can look him up for yourself… 2/17/09 Revised 12/15/09
