Sciatica Physio in Mount Vernon

Pegasus Peak treats sciatica in Mount Vernon clients ranging from desk workers and tradies to retirees who've simply moved the wrong way once.

Most Mount Vernon 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.

Property maintenance and farm work bring lifting strains — we know how to rehab them. We're roughly a 18-minute drive from Mount Vernon. We also see clients from nearby Kemps Creek, Horsley Park, Cecil Hills.

What we treat

Frequently asked questions

Can physio fix a disc bulge?

Physio can't 'reduce' a bulge, but most disc-related sciatica resolves with time and targeted rehab — the bulge often shrinks on its own.

Should I rest or keep moving?

Keep moving gently. Bed rest beyond 1–2 days actually slows recovery for most sciatica cases.

Do I need an MRI?

Usually no. MRI is only useful if symptoms aren't improving, you have leg weakness, or surgery is being considered.

How long does sciatica take to settle?

Most cases improve significantly within 4–8 weeks of consistent treatment. Severe disc-related sciatica can take longer.

When should I see a doctor instead?

Immediately if you have loss of bladder/bowel control, saddle numbness, or progressive leg weakness. Otherwise, physio is a great first step.
