What is Sciatica
Sciatica can vary from person to person but it often refers to pain that radiates along the sciatic nerve, typically from the lower back through the hips, buttocks and down one or both legs. It can last anywhere from a few days to several weeks or even months, and is classified as either acute or chronic. One thing’s for sure; sciatica can significantly impact everyday activities including movement, sleep and productivity, which is why effective treatment is so essential.
The Importance of Treatment
As with any nerve-related pain, addressing sciatica early is essential to prevent symptoms from worsening or becoming a long-term issue. Proper treatment can help relieve pain, restore movement and reduce the risk of persistent nerve irritation. So, if you’re struggling with sciatica in Solihull, seeking professional help via Urban Body will give you the best chance of a full and lasting recovery.
Causes of Sciatica
Sciatica can be caused by several underlying issues. The most common include:
- Herniated or bulging discs that press on the sciatic nerve
- Spinal stenosis, where narrowing of the spinal canal compresses nerves
- Poor posture or prolonged sitting, increasing pressure on the lower back and hips
- Muscle tightness or imbalance, particularly in the lower back, hips or glutes
- Injury or trauma from accidents, falls or heavy lifting
- Degenerative conditions, such as arthritis affecting the spine
- Pregnancy or excess body weight, which can place additional strain on the lower spine
Whether you’re experiencing sharp, shooting leg pain or persistent lower back discomfort and aren’t sure of the exact cause, our team will identify the source of your sciatica and create a tailored treatment plan that aligns with your needs and recovery goals.

FAQs About Back Pain Treatment
Sciatica is a condition caused by irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve, leading to pain that radiates from the lower back down through the hips, buttocks and into one or both legs. It may also cause tingling, numbness or weakness.
Sciatica is most commonly caused by a herniated disc, spinal stenosis, poor posture, muscle tightness, or injury to the lower back. Pregnancy and excess body weight can also increase the risk.
Treatment typically involves physiotherapy, targeted exercises, massage, pain-relieving therapies such as acupuncture or shockwave therapy, and in some cases injections. Most people improve without the need for surgery.
Recovery times vary depending on the cause and severity. Mild cases may improve within a few weeks, while more persistent cases can take several months with the right treatment plan in place.
While short periods of rest may help during intense flare-ups, staying gently active is usually recommended. Guided movement and physiotherapy exercises often speed up recovery and prevent recurrence
I had painful lower back pain after over exerting and generally lifting garden implements incorrectly. I contacted Urban Body and was seen by Dylan, who assessed my condition and prescribed a set of simple exercises to address the acute issues. Over the course of 6 sessions, the exercises evolved and now I’m pain-free!
