Sciatica is a common condition where the sciatic nerve becomes irritated or compressed, causing pain that can spread from the lower back into the buttocks, legs, and even feet. At Fully Fit Therapy, we provide expert treatment for sciatica in Newent, Gloucester, Cheltenham, Tewkesbury, Ross-on-Wye, and the Forest of Dean.

What Is Sciatica?

Sciatica refers to pain caused by irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve — the longest nerve in the body. Symptoms may include:

  • Sharp, shooting pain down one leg

  • Tingling or numbness in the leg or foot

  • Muscle weakness

  • Pain that worsens with sitting or coughing

Assessment Before Treatment

Before treatment begins, Rob will complete a detailed assessment, including:

  • Full medical history

  • Identifying triggers and relieving factors

  • Physical mobility and nerve testing

  • Posture and muscle analysis

This ensures treatment is tailored to your specific condition.
