People sometimes seek chiropractic care for sciatica and other painful conditions. This is because chiropractic care may be a more appealing option for long-term pain management than taking medication every day.

You also may have already tried numerous traditional solutions to pain management, such as medication and physical therapy, without finding relief.

Chiropractic care is often easy to find. You don't need a medical referral to see a chiropractor, and many of these practices can see patients very quickly. Plus, chiropractic care is increasingly covered by health insurance plans.
