Understanding Sciatica Pain
Sciatica refers to irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve, which is the longest nerve in the body. This nerve runs from your lower back through your hips and buttocks, down each leg. When it becomes compressed or inflamed (often due to a herniated disc, spinal misalignment, or muscle tension), patients experience sharp, shooting pain that radiates from the lower back into the leg. Some people also experience numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness in the affected leg.
Sciatic pain may worsen after long periods of sitting or standing, and sudden movements such as bending or lifting can trigger severe discomfort. Left untreated, sciatica can become chronic and limit your ability to work, exercise, and enjoy daily activities.

Our Approach
At Axis Chiropractic in Charleston, SC, Dr. Lee Russo specializes in helping patients find lasting relief from sciatica—without relying on invasive procedures or risky pain medications. Rather than masking symptoms, Dr. Russo focuses on correcting the underlying structural problems that trigger sciatic pain.
Using the advanced techniques of Chiropractic BioPhysics® (CBP) which is considered to be the most researched and results-oriented chiropractic method, Dr. Russo delivers highly customized care based on each patient’s spinal alignment. CBP’s unique approach involves a combination of spinal adjustments, mirror-image postural exercises, decompression, and spinal traction to gradually and safely restore normal spinal curves. By improving alignment and reducing pressure on the sciatic nerve, patients not only experience pain relief but also regain mobility and long-term stability.
Dr. Russo’s goal is always to help patients avoid surgery unless absolutely necessary. Many individuals who come to Axis Chiropractic are seeking an alternative to spinal injections or surgical intervention, and with consistent CBP treatment, they’re often able to return to work, stay active, and enjoy life again—pain-free. With over two decades of clinical experience and a dedication to non-invasive healing, Dr. Lee Russo is proud to offer real solutions for sciatica that go beyond symptom management and create lasting change.
