Sciatic treatment at First Step Chiropractic in Rowlett


Sciatica, which is also known as sciatic neuralgia, is a condition that causes pain in the lower back, down the back of the leg, and into the foot.

It can make sitting and standing for long periods of time difficult and can lead to weakness, tingling, and numbness in the leg and foot. It will often come and go throughout a person’s lifetime, causing periods of varying degrees of pain and discomfort. If left unchecked, sciatic pain will generally grow worse and the nerve can become permanently injured.

The reason why the pain travels so far, seems to radiate up and down the legs and back, is because it is caused by the compression of the sciatic nerve, the longest nerve in the body. This nerve originates in the lumbar spine and extends into the buttocks before traveling down the leg to the ankle and foot.

When the vertebrae in the low back are compressed, the roots of the sciatic nerve can become pinched and irritated which is what causes the pain and injury.

How do you develop sciatica?

There are a number of factors that can lead to sciatica. It is most commonly caused by disc injuries and bulges. In this occurrence, the disc presses against the nerve root causing the issue.

Disc Injuries can occur because of poor posture, repetitive use injuries, and accidents. Sciatica is also common when there are subluxations (misalignments) in the spine due to postural issues, pregnancy, or trauma.

Some patients say they simply bent over to pick up a piece of paper and they were hit with extreme pain.

The reality is that the spinal condition was probably developing for quite some time before the triggering incident occurred.

Being a letter carrier for 25 yrs really took a toll on my body. Dr Fowler and Dr Espinoza and the crew really kept me going. Retired now I still go for maintenance once a month to get me through my retirement years. Wouldn’t have made it without these people ❤️

After my chiropractor of many years closed his office he gave us recommendations of new places to go. I’m so glad I selected first step chiropractic. I especially like the plan to improve my range of motion and keep my 67 year old body moving 😍

I went to First Step in Rowlett with a weird feeling in my upper leg groin area. After numerous of x-rays, consultation and a plan of action all in the same day I walked out of there feeling 100% better, but my Dr.Reyes assured me it would take more than one visit with him and for me to trust his hands to make me feel 100% better. It turned out my neck and head is the one most damaged. After my 2st adjustment with Dr.Reyes I was sold I trust he knows what he is doing and I put my whole life in his hands he made me feel so great.. I have a plan of 12 more visits and I plan on making every one of them. The office staff also makes you feel so welcome so caring and loved❤️ 😍 💖. I highly recommend this place and the WONDERFUL STAFF AND DR'S that are there,but Dr.Reyes has my heart....THANK YOU DR.REYES FOR HOW WONDERFUL, SWEET ,NICE AND SO CONCERNING YOU I WILL CONTINUE WITH YOU TILL IM A 100 %💯 %It has now been 4 weeks since I started going to First Step and seeing Dr. Reyes!!! After numerous stretching and adjustments and home exercises I am feeling so much better!!! I haven't had anymore headaches, my upper neck line is so much better in my eyes and how I feel. Please trust me if you have any pain go see Dr. Fowler and his wonderful team of Dr's and staff they will make you feel so much better.❤️ I went in today with pain in my right neck side from a hard weekend at my job, Dr. Reyes and John loosen me all up and after Dr.Reyes did his "magic" with his hands I walked out of there so much better!!!! 🙂🙂 I am so blessed so give them call and let them help you!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

My mom Elisa has been unable to live the life she was so used to living for many years now because of her bulging & degenerative discs. She used to live a very active life- kayaking, gardening, walking her dogs etc…. We thought that life was over for her but ever since she started coming here for treatments, we have slowly but surely seen that that is no longer true. We have hope again! Thank you so much for the work y’all are doing! My mom will be able hold her first granddaughter again!

My sisters and I have been taking my mom here for the past few months to help with some back pain she has experienced her whole life- Through their Genesis program, we are hoping to see incredible healing and recovery. So far she has been doing much better than before, and the staff have all been so great and helpful. First Step truly wants to come alongside of you and help you in whatever way they can. I have been so appreciative of their flexibility and willingness to help in this way!

I got injured in 2019 that puts me temporary paralysis for almost one year. That changed my life completely. Last year during Christmas 2023 I got temporarily paralyzed again. I went to the ER and they showed me the MRI and CT and how damaged my back and neck are. They recommend surgery. To try to avoid it I found First Step and Genesis. My daughter took me there with so much pain and the first visit my Dr. explained all my problems in my back and he puts me right away in treatment with Genesis to take away some of my pain. Ive been going for one month now and I have a smile in my face!!! Thank you for bringing hope when I was hopeless with my health.

My mom, Elisa, was very close to being paralyzed during Christmas of 2023 due to bulging and degenerative discs. We did some research and found that First Steps Chiropractic did spinal decompression therapy and wanted to give that a try before we sought spinal injections and other surgical treatments. Dr. Fowler personally reviewed my mom’s case and was with us each step of the way, even going so far as to give us his number to message him in case we had questions about her care outside of her appointment time. He has worked with us like no other doctor has in recent years and is dedicated to helping my mom transform her health. She has already made such a HUGE improvement! She has been able to walk longer distances and sit for longer amounts than she had this whole past year. We love Dr. Fowler and his team at First Steps Chiropractic!
