Sciatica Treatment That Releases the Nerve, Not Just the Symptoms

Shooting pain down your leg. Numbness in your foot. You can’t sit, can’t sleep, and every movement feels like a gamble. You’ve tried rest, stretches, maybe even injections. Nothing stuck.

We find the exact pinch point.

Disc, piriformis, posture, or all three. We assess your whole spine and pelvis, not just where it hurts.

Regenerative tech targets the nerve.

Focused shockwave, EMTT, and spinal adjustment work together to release compression and calm inflammation deep in the tissue.

We rebuild nerve health for the long term.

Neuromodulation recalibrates your nervous system. Targeted rehab keeps flare-ups from coming back.

60-minute one-on-one assessment + treatment plan.

No pressure, no contracts.

Is This You?

If any of this sounds familiar, you're in the right place.

Sharp or burning pain shooting from your low back into your buttock, thigh, or calf

Numbness or tingling in your foot or leg that won’t go away

Sitting at your desk, driving, or bending forward makes everything worse

You work a physically demanding job, or sit for long hours with little movement

You’ve tried physiotherapy, medication, or injections and the pain keeps coming back. You want real answers before considering surgery.

The Real Problem

Why Your Leg Still Hurts After "Trying Everything"

Most people have several of these happening at once. That’s why we assess the whole chain, from your lumbar spine to your foot, not just the painful spot.

OUR APPROACH

The Unpain 3-Part Sciatica Pain Relief Program

INITIAL VISIT

Whole-Body Root-Cause Assessment

Spine, pelvis, hip, and nerve tension testing to find the exact compression point

Identify which pain drivers apply to your case: disc, piriformis, posture, central sensitization, or a combination

Clear written treatment plan with transparent pricing before you commit

First 3 to 6 Weeks

Pain & Inflammation Modulation

Focused shockwave therapy to release deep piriformis tension and reduce nerve swelling

EMTT (pulsed electromagnetic therapy) to dial down inflammation around the nerve sheath

Chiropractic spinal adjustments to restore alignment and open the nerve root space

Make sitting, walking, and sleeping tolerable, fast.

6+ Weeks and Beyond

Strength & Progressive Aftercare

NESA microcurrent neuromodulation to recalibrate nerve activity and autonomic balance

Progressive core and hip strengthening to support the spine and protect the nerve long-term

Targeted stretching and mobility work for the piriformis, hamstrings, and hip flexors

What To Expect

What Results Can I Expect?

Every case is different, but research and our clinical experience consistently show:

Many patients notice partial relief after 1 to 3 shockwave or adjustment sessions. Significant improvement typically builds over 3 to 6 weeks of combined treatment.

Patients regain the ability to sit, drive, sleep, and walk without shooting leg pain. In published trials, over half of patients treated with spinal manipulation became free of radiating pain.

Research shows about half of patients experience recurrence within three years with usual care alone. Our multi-modal approach and progressive aftercare are designed to reduce that risk.

Our promise: we will tell you honestly at the assessment if we don’t believe you’re a good candidate for this approach.

EVIDENCE

The Research Behind Our Approach

Chiropractic spinal manipulation has been shown to make over half of sciatica patients pain-free in a randomized, double-blind clinical trial, compared to about one in five with sham treatment.

Focused shockwave therapy achieved comparable pain and function improvements to corticosteroid injection for piriformis-related sciatica in a randomized controlled trial.

EMTT (pulsed electromagnetic therapy) produced significantly greater pain reduction than placebo in a 126-patient randomized trial for chronic musculoskeletal pain.

NESA microcurrent neuromodulation improved autonomic markers and raised pain thresholds in pilot studies of chronic pain, supporting its role in nerve recalibration.

Shockwave therapy has been shown to reduce sciatic nerve swelling and produce large drops in pain scores in published case research.

Outcomes are group averages from clinical trials; individual results vary.

Initial Sciatica Pain AssessmentEdmonton

60-minute one-on-one session. Here’s what’s included:

1

Full spine, pelvis, hip, and nerve tension assessment to locate the compression

2

Identify which pain drivers matter for your case: disc, piriformis, posture, or central sensitization

3

Review of your history and imaging if available

4

Clear written plan with transparent pricing before you commit

No referral needed. No obligation to continue beyond the first visit.

No pressure, no contracts.

We will tell you honestly at the assessment if we don't believe you're a good candidate for this approach. If your condition needs something different, we'll refer you directly.
