Classical Osteopathy to treat nerve pain and sciatica

It’s never fun to have shooting pains, pins and needles, or numbness across your body. At Tunbridge Wells Osteopaths, we offer personalised treatments to help you with issues such as trapped nerves, sciatica, and neuralgia.

When you have nerve pain, you may feel a stabbing, burning pain or alternatively a decreased sensation, as if your limbs have ‘fallen asleep’. You may experience twitching in your muscles or spasms.

Severe pain that follows the path of the nerve can be caused by pressure irritation, damage or injury, infections (e.g. shingles), diabetes, and ageing. However, nerve pain can also be caused by other factors, such as a bulging disc, muscle spasm, or swelling from an injury. Osteoarthritis or growths (whether benign or malignant) may also be the cause.
