Treat the Sharp Pain Triggered by Sciatica, Using Brain Training Therapy, Based on Brain Science
And now you too can benefit from the effects of Neurofeedback therapy right here in Romania!
The therapy clinically proven to treat sciatica and improve your quality of life
Up to 40% of the world's population suffers from sciatica (according to Harvard Health). The condition not only keeps you from making certain movements in everyday life, it also causes you constant discomfort and pain.
However, you don't have to live with this pain every day - there are therapeutic solutions that can help you heal it for good.
At the BrainMap Institute we use a revolutionary technology of Neurofeedback, based on brain science, which helps you relieve sciatica pain.
Why Neurofeedback therapy?
- It uses exclusive medical equipment, manufactured and certified in the U.S.A., based on training the neuroplasticity of the brain.
- It drives the formation of new neural connections, which help you ease the pain triggered by the sciatic nerve in the pelvis and thigh area.
- The procedure is painless and causes no side effects - no electrical stimuli or other dangerous and ineffective procedures.
- The same equipment was used for the training of NASA cosmonauts and astronauts, to improve their concentration in highly stressful situations.
What is sciatica?
Sciatica is leg pain originating in one or more nerve roots in the lumbar and sacral area (usually L4-S2).
The sciatic nerve is responsible for controlling the muscles of the back of the thigh and all the muscles located below the knee.
It carries sensory impulses from the back of the thigh, the back and side of the lower limb and the entire sole of the foot. Sciatic pain therefore runs along the length of the sciatic nerve: it starts in the lower back and radiates to the buttock and leg.
The causes of sciatic pain:
- A herniated disc that irritates or compresses a nerve root ā 95% of sciatica cases occur through damage to the L5 or S1 root caused by a lumbar disc herniation;
- Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the canal);
- Spondylolisthesis ā the forward slipping of one vertebral body over another;
- Osteoarthritis ā the deterioration of the tissues of the lumbar spine can compress or irritate one or more roots of the sciatic nerve;
- Injuries to the lumbar spine and sciatic nerve ā fractures of the femoral head, injuries to the pelvis;
- Tumours in the spinal canal, which compress the nerve roots;
- Haematomas (a build-up of blood) or abscesses;
- Piriformis syndrome ā the compression of the sciatic nerve at the level of the piriformis muscle, which can cause symptoms such as burning pain and numbness extending throughout the lower limbs.
Risk factors
- Age ā age-related changes in the spine are the most common causes of sciatica;
- Obesity ā by increasing the stress on the spine, excess body weight can contribute to the spinal changes that trigger sciatica;
- A sedentary lifestyle ā people who stand for prolonged periods or have a sedentary lifestyle are more likely to develop sciatica than active people;
- Diabetes;
- A history of spinal injuries;
- Osteoarthritis;
- Smoking ā the nicotine in tobacco can damage spinal tissue, weaken bones and speed up the wear of the vertebral discs.
How does sciatica manifest itself?
Lower back painā the painful contracture of the muscles along the spine, extending down to the leg.
Radicular pain ā felt as a persistent burning sensation or a sharp, stabbing pain that starts in the lower back or buttock and radiates down the front or back of the thigh and/or calf as far as the heel; it is aggravated by physical effort, abdominal contraction and the strain of coughing, and eases at rest. It is frequently accompanied by tingling and numbness, all along the same path.
Sphincter disturbancesā bladder emptying, defecation, potency.
How does Brain training therapy help with sciatica?
Neurofeedback training shows positive results in treating sciatic pain, especially when therapy is started early. The earlier we begin, the faster we can reduce the impact of the symptoms
Using a specific medical device and a software program, we measure brain wave activity and help patients with sciatica change their own brain waves. This way, you will manage to reduce your symptoms and improve your overall quality of life.
What does the procedure consist of?
During neurofeedback therapy for sciatica, we will go through 4 simple steps together:
We carry out a BrainMap assessment, in which we discover exactly which brain areas triggered the sciatica. This tells us what needs to be treated and how we will carry out the therapy sessions.
Based on the results, you receive a personalized neurofeedback treatment plan, suited to the uniqueness of your brain.
Follow the established plan and attend the periodic brain training sessions
You start to see the results: you have more control over your body, and the pain gradually fades and no longer stops you from doing the activities you truly enjoy.
The results of Brain training therapy for sciatic pain
From our work with thousands of patients we have seen that, through Neurofeedback brain training, we can considerably reduce the impact of sciatic pain if we intervene early.
After specifically training the affected areas, the patient can lead a much better quality of life, managing to reduce the sensations of pain in the lower body (effects also demonstrated by international studies).
Heal the sharp pain caused by sciatica
If you follow the therapy plan, we can help you get rid of the sharp pain and the numbness and tingling triggered by sciatica. This way, you will be able to live a good quality life, free of discomfort.
