True sciatica is nerve pain — not just back pain. Getting the diagnosis right matters, because the treatment path is very different from generic 'lower back' care.
Most Denham Court clients notice meaningful change within 2–3 sessions. If you're not improving, we'll be honest and discuss imaging or a GP review rather than dragging you back forever.
A short run down Camden Valley Way to our Gregory Hills rooms. We're roughly a 12-minute drive from Denham Court. We also see clients from nearby Edmondson Park, Bardia, Ingleburn.
Immediately if you have loss of bladder/bowel control, saddle numbness, or progressive leg weakness. Otherwise, physio is a great first step.
Keep moving gently. Bed rest beyond 1–2 days actually slows recovery for most sciatica cases.
Physio can't 'reduce' a bulge, but most disc-related sciatica resolves with time and targeted rehab — the bulge often shrinks on its own.
Most cases improve significantly within 4–8 weeks of consistent treatment. Severe disc-related sciatica can take longer.
Usually no. MRI is only useful if symptoms aren't improving, you have leg weakness, or surgery is being considered.
