COMMON SYMPTOMS
What Does Sciatica Feel Like?
Symptoms depend on which tissues and areas surrounding the sciatic nerve are irritated. They may range from mild and occasional to uncomfortable enough to interfere with everyday activity.
Sitting for extended periods, driving, bending, lifting or certain exercises may aggravate symptoms for some people.
Common Signs of Sciatic Irritation
- Pain in the lower back, buttock or rear of the leg
- Burning or tingling traveling down the leg
- Pain that becomes worse after prolonged sitting
- Tightness around the hip or glute
- Shooting discomfort when standing or changing position
- Reduced comfort while walking, bending or exercising
- Numbness or weakness in some cases
WHY SCIATICA HAPPENS
What Can Contribute to Sciatic Pain?
Sciatic symptoms can have different causes. That’s why identifying the pattern behind your discomfort is important before determining the appropriate approach.
01
Lower-Back Tension
Tight or overworked muscles surrounding the lumbar spine can contribute to restricted movement and discomfort.
02
Piriformis & Glute Tension
Excessive tension around the deep hip and gluteal muscles may contribute to symptoms that resemble or aggravate sciatic pain.
03
Repetitive Stress
Sitting, driving, work activities, exercise and repetitive movement can overload the lower back and hips over time.
04
Injury
Sports, work and auto-related injuries can create protective muscular tension or movement compensation around the back, pelvis and hips.
05
Postural Imbalance
Uneven movement or prolonged postures may repeatedly overload certain muscles while other areas compensate.
06
Spinal Conditions
Herniated discs, degenerative changes or spinal stenosis may also irritate nerve roots and require appropriate medical evaluation.
PERSONALIZED PAIN RELIEF
How Manual Therapy Can Help Sciatica
When muscular tension, soft-tissue restrictions or movement patterns contribute to sciatic symptoms, targeted manual therapy may help reduce tension and restore more comfortable movement.
Release Lower-Back Tension
Medical massage and neuromuscular techniques can help relax overworked muscles surrounding the lower back and pelvis.
Address Piriformis & Glutes
Focused work around the hips, glutes and piriformis can reduce muscular tension that may contribute to leg discomfort.
Reduce Trigger Points
Trigger point therapy targets concentrated areas of muscular tension that can create local or referred discomfort.
Improve Fascial Mobility
Myofascial techniques can help improve tissue mobility throughout the lower back, pelvis and hips.
Restore Comfortable Movement
Reducing soft-tissue restrictions may help improve bending, rotation, walking and other everyday movements.
Address the Larger Pattern
Instead of focusing only where you feel pain, Bahman considers how the lower back, hips, pelvis and surrounding muscles work together.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Sciatica Pain Treatment FAQs
- Can massage therapy help sciatica?
Manual and massage therapy may help when muscular tension, trigger points or soft-tissue restrictions around the lower back, hips or glutes contribute to sciatic symptoms. Treatment should always be adapted to the cause and severity of your symptoms.
- What areas are treated for sciatica?
Depending on your symptoms, treatment may involve the lower back, hips, glutes, piriformis and surrounding musculature rather than focusing only on the area where the pain is felt.
- Is deep tissue massage good for sciatica?
Deep tissue work may be appropriate when persistent muscular tension contributes to symptoms, but deeper pressure is not appropriate for everyone. Bahman adjusts pressure and technique based on your condition and comfort level.
- How many sessions will I need for sciatica?
The number of sessions varies depending on how long the symptoms have been present, their cause and the amount of muscular or movement restriction involved. Your treatment plan is individualized.
- Can sciatica cause pain all the way down the leg?
Yes. Sciatic symptoms may travel from the lower back or buttock through the thigh and lower leg and, in some cases, toward the foot or toes.
- When should I see a doctor instead of a massage therapist?
Seek medical evaluation for severe or rapidly worsening symptoms, significant weakness, loss of sensation, symptoms following major trauma, or changes in bladder or bowel control. Manual therapy should complement appropriate medical care when an underlying spinal condition is suspected.
- Do you provide sciatica treatment for San Diego clients?
Yes. Global Holistic Solutions is located in Coronado and serves clients from Coronado and throughout the greater San Diego area.
