A new Zealand study revealed that males in rural areas are more likely to be afflicted with spinal diseases, including sciatica, then men living in urban areas such as Manhatten. Nevertheless, because of shear magnitudes of people, there are enough victims of spinal and back disease to keep Manhattan chiropractors busy.
Spinal disorders, including sciatica are caused by injury, overuse, muscle disorders, or pressure on a nerve or poor posture. While Manhattan chiropractors are quick to point out that continual sitting in front a computer screen can be stressful on the spine, statistics show that this type of stress is not as likely to cause spinal imbalance as the types of stresses met in the daily physical routine of rural life.
According to Dr. Noam Sodovnik, a Manhattan Chiropractor, chronic sciatica is a torturous and difficult to resolve back and leg pain syndrome. Sciatica is not a diagnosis, but a symptom of an underlying causative condition. True sciatica is sourced by a spinal abnormality, while pseudo-sciatica can come about due to muscular, circulatory or even psychosomatic reasons. No matter what the actual cause of the sciatica, the chronic symptoms can make life very difficult for affected patients.
Despite all this doom and gloom, there is some good news about treatingsciatica Manhatten Chiropractors have found that structural causations which are accurately diagnosed and truly do create symptoms most commonly respond very well to indicated medical and complementary treatment. This means that most true anatomical issues responsible for enacting pain can be completely cured. For patients with long term symptoms which have proven themselves to be unresponsive to various forms of treatment, the answer is simple. In these cases, the condition is virtually always misdiagnosed, leading the sufferer on a wild goose chase using treatments which are all targeting mistakenly identified causes of pain. No wonder the treatments fail.
