What is Sciatica?
Sciatica refers to pain experienced along the path of the
sciatic nerve - the longest nerve in the body, which runs from
the lower back through the pelvis and buttock area, right down
to the back of the lower leg. Sciatica is a fairly common
form of lower back and leg pain and is due to the sciatic nerve
being irritated or compressed. The pain of sciatica varies
from an infrequent discomfort to a continuous, excruciating and
debilitating pain.
Sciatica
is usually experienced as pain that radiates from your lower
back to your buttock and down the back of your leg. This
pain may be mild or severe and is sometimes felt as a burning
sensation or a sharp jolt. Sciatica may be sudden or
insidious in onset and worsen over time.
Some people who suffer from sciatic pain may also experience a
numbness or weakness in the leg or foot, as well as a feeling of
tingling or pins-and-needles in the toes.

What
causes Sciatica?
The most
common cause of sciatica is pressure on the sciatic nerve from a
herniated or slipped vertebral disc (“Pinched nerve”).
Between each of the vertabrae in your spine lies a disc of
cartilage to act as a cushioning shock-absorber and allow
flexibility of the spine. With age and wear-and-tear,
these discs may become brittle and compressed - allowing part of
the disc to protrude from its normal position within the spinal
column and press on the nerve root. This generally happens
in people between the ages of 30 and 50.
Other less common causes of sciatica include narrowing of the
spinal canal (known as stenosis), spinal tumors, injury and
trauma. Various other problems affecting the bones, joints
and muscles of the back and pelvis can also cause sciatica
though these may not always be easily diagnosed, sometimes
leaving the cause of the sciatic pain unknown.
People in their 30’s and 40’s are most likely to develop
sciatica, which is uncommon in younger people. Physically
demanding occupations which require heavy lifting, driving long
hours or twisting the back are all risk factors for developing
sciatica.
Depending on
the cause, sciatic pain often resolves on its own in
approximately six weeks.

Complications of
sciatica
Depending on
the cause of sciatica, numbness or lameness in the affected limb
may occur as well as loss of bladder and bowel control in some
cases. In severe cases of sciatica, permanent nerve damage
may occur.
How is sciatica
usually treated?
Most people
with sciatica are prescribed pain-killers or anti-inflammatory
medications to relieve the pain. These generally provide
some relief, but have the potential to cause serious adverse
side-effects. Medications are usually used in combination
with physical therapy and stretching/strengthening exercises as
well as hot and cold packs.
In severe
cases of sciatic pain that does not respond to the usual
treatments, conventional health practitioners may advise
injections of anti-inflammatory steroids into the affected area.
These injections are not always very effective and can also
cause serious side-effects. Because of the dangers, there
is a limit on how many of these injections an individual can
receive - not usually more than three per year.
Surgery to
remove the herniated part of a disc is sometimes performed on
people with severe symptoms like weakness or incontinence or if
the pain is worsening despite treatment.

What are the Ingredients?
Sciatigon
contains the following herbal and homeopathic ingredients:
Zanthoxylum
clava herculis
is also known as the Toothache Tree after its traditional use as
a treatment for relief of toothache. Zanthoxylum is highly
effective in stimulating the circulatory system and also has
antispasmodic properties for the relief of cramps and the pain
of muscular spasms.
Matricaria recutita
(German Chamomile) was regarded as one of the nine sacred
herbs given to the world by ancient Anglo-Saxons. In
modern times it is widely used as a gentle
anti-inflammatory, anti-spasmodic and soothing herb.
Matricaria acts as a general tonic for the nervous system
and also relieves muscular pain in the lower back.
Arctium
lappa
(Burdock) has been used for many centuries as a blood purifier
and system cleanser. It also has antibiotic and antirheumatic
properties and can help to treat swelling around joints.
Burdock is also useful for treating and preventing calcification
- a degenerative process which can contribute to the narrowing
of the spinal canal. These properties make Burdock an
excellent herb for relief of sciatica caused by inflammation or
sclerosis in the spinal column. Burdock is used in
naturopathic medicine to treat arthritis, lumbago, rheumatism
and sciatica.
Harpagophytum procumbens
(Devil's
Claw) This herb is indigenous to the Kalahari
Desert and grows only in Africa. Because of its powerful
anti-inflammatory properties, Devil's Claw is used world-wide
for osteo-arthritis, fibrositis, rheumatism, small joint disease
and lower backache. Scientific analysis shows that the most
important active ingredients in Devil's Claw include
monoterpine, harpagoside, glycoside, beta-sitosterol, procumbine
and stigmasterol. It is also well known as a digestive tonic and
is beneficial in the treatment of liver and gall bladder
disorders.
Rhus tox (30C)
is a homeopathic remedy for back pain, arthritis and general
aches and pains. Rhus tox is widely used for back pain
and stiffness including trauma from lifting heavy loads and
bruising or sprains. This remedy is also good for
joint and muscle ailments, sciatic pain and neck stiffness.
Colocynthis (30C)
is used in homeopathic medicine for relief of colic, sharp
pains and neuralgia. Nerve pain, including sciatica,
abdominal cramps, rheumatism and dizziness are all
effectively addressed by this ingredient.

FAQ’s
How can I prevent sciatica and back pain in general?
Taking good care of your back and spine can go a long way to
protecting you from debilitating back pain and sciatica
though some causes are not easily preventable.
-
Regular exercise, especially exercise that strengthens your
core muscles like Pilates and controlled strength-training
of your abdomen and lower back, will provide spinal
stability and improve posture.
-
When sitting, maintain good posture by keeping your feet
flat on the floor, your arms on the armrests or desk and
your lower spine supported by a well-designed chair or the
addition of a rolled-up towel or cushion in the small of
your back.
-
When lifting heavy objects bend down at your knees instead
of your back and carry the object at waist level, held close
to your body.
-
Sleep on a firm mattress and avoid using more than one
pillow.

What else can
I do to help my condition?
There are a
few things you can do to help manage your condition and
decrease the pain of sciatica.
·
In the first 48 hours of the onset of sciatica, ice packs
wrapped in a towel or cloth and applied to the affected area
for 15-20 minutes at a time may help to reduce inflammation
and relieve pain. This should be repeated about 4 times a
day.
·
Warmth applied to the painful areas will help to relieve
pain after the initial inflammation has settled. Try a
hot-water bottle or heating pad on a low setting.
·
Gentle stretching exercises of the lower back will help to
relieve compression of the nerve. Ask your physical
therapist to give you exercises to do at home and avoid any
jerking, bouncing or twisting movements.
Order SciatiGon
When do I
need to see my health care provider?
Any sudden and severe pain, numbness or loss of strength in
your back or leg should lead you to consult your family
doctor or physician. If you experience loss of bowel
or bladder control at any time, seek medical assistance
immediately.
How has SciatiGon
helped others?
'A few weeks ago I hurt my back while trying to move a
heavy book-case into my living room. I thought I would
come right within a day or two but a week later I felt the
pain was getting worse and if I leaned over or moved my back
much at all, I felt a shooting pain right down to my foot.
I ended up in bed lying as dead still as I possibly could,
feeling extremely sorry for myself which is really not like
me. My doctor prescribed pain medication that barely
made any difference and told me the next step was steroid
injections - not a comforting thought! I started
looking on the internet for alternatives and found your
SciatiGon remedy. I ordered it immediately and started
taking it the minute it arrived. Within 3 days I was
feeling better and by the end of a week I was up and about
and doing housework (very carefully). I am taking
every precaution and seeing a physical therapist but only
because I never want to experience that pain again!
Thank you for a life-saving remedy - after stories from
friends with similar problems I have no idea what I would
have done if I hadn’t found SciatiGon!' Bronwyn
'Quite recently husband suffered from a slipped disc and
developed sciatica which pretty much crippled him. I
could see he was in agony and felt frustrated with his
doctor who did not seem too worried about the whole
situation. I’ve used Native Remedies products before
with good results and was pleased to find that you have a
remedy for sciatica. My husband took SciatiGon
regularly and soon reported that the pain was easing.
He improved in leaps and bounds from that point onwards and
was back at work long before his doctor had expected.
Once again Native Remedies has been the answer to my
family’s health problems- thank you!'
