Are you suffering from the sharp, shooting leg pain of sciatica?

Put down the Tylenol! A sciatica chiropractor can provide lasting relief.

Sciatica is—quite literally—a pain in the butt.

But rather than visiting your primary care physician (or, worse yet, suffering through it), seeking chiropractic treatment can not only alleviate your symptoms but also treat the underlying cause of your sciatica.

Unlike traditional medicine, chiropractic treatments encourage the body to heal itself. Chiropractors often use a combination of chiropractic adjustments and medical massage to effectively heal most sciatica patients without the use of drugs or surgery.

Curious about chiropractic? You’re probably wondering…

“Does Medicare cover chiropractic care? Do chiropractors take insurance?”

If you suffer from back pain, achy joints, sciatica, or another painful condition, you’re not alone. Chiropractors treat nearly 27 million patients a year. With the prevalence of joint-related issues, you might be asking yourself, “Does my insurance cover chiropractic treatment?”

But—as with most questions involving doctors and insurance plans—the answer isn’t always cut-and-dry.

Fortunately, there are many occasions when your insurance does offer coverage for chiropractic services. Let’s dig a little deeper to see when you may or may not be covered.

At its core, holistic care is about treating all aspects of the individual, not just the parts that are hurting or injured. Those who practice holistic care believe that only by focusing on and healing all aspects of an individual—their body, mind, and soul—can you truly be happy and healthy.

How does a holistic approach work in the practice of chiropractic care? Let’s take a look.
