Sciatica Treatment in Nutley & Fairfield, NJ
Sciatica can cause sharp, burning or shooting pain that travels from the low back through the glute and down the leg. It can make sitting, driving and sleeping miserable. At Recovr, we look at what is irritating the sciatic nerve, whether that is a tight piriformis, a disc issue or a movement pattern, and treat the cause.
Signs of Sciatica
Pain that radiates from the low back or glute down the leg
Numbness, tingling or pins and needles in the leg or foot
Pain that gets worse with sitting or bending
Tightness in the hips and glutes
Weakness in the leg or foot
How Recovr Treats Sciatica
Dr. Alan Genitempo builds each plan around what your body needs, which may include:
Acupuncture to calm nerve irritation and reduce pain
Dry needling to release tight glute and piriformis muscles
Electric stimulation acupuncture for persistent nerve pain
Soft tissue manipulation to improve hip and low back mobility
Movement-based rehab and home exercises to keep you moving well
What to Expect
Your first visit starts with a conversation about your history and goals, followed by a hands-on assessment so Dr. Alan Genitempo can find what is actually driving your sciatica. From there, you get a personalized treatment plan, and most patients begin treatment the same day. Many people notice a difference within the first few sessions.
