Sciatica Physical Therapy in Louisville, KY
Sciatica Isn't Something You Just Live With.
Sharp or shooting pain down your leg? Numbness or tingling that makes it hard to sit, drive, or sleep? We help people in Louisville find the root cause of sciatic nerve pain and build a clear, one-on-one plan to address it.
Sciatica Doesn't Get Better on Its Own. Waiting Makes It Worse.
Sitting makes it flare every time
Every time you sit at your desk, get in the car, or hit a certain movement, the same shooting pain or numbness comes back. Unpredictable and disruptive, it keeps you constantly on edge.
It has been going on longer than it should
Weeks of sciatic pain means your body has already started compensating. Stretching and rest might dull the edges, but they do not fix what is actually causing the nerve irritation in the first place.
You are changing how you move around it
Avoiding the car ride, the office chair, certain exercises. Each workaround adds up and chips away at your momentum, your strength, and your confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here is what people in Louisville ask us most about sciatica physical therapy.
Sciatica typically involves pain, numbness, or tingling that radiates from the low back or glute down the leg, usually on one side. Sharp or burning sensations are common, as is weakness or difficulty with certain positions. A thorough assessment confirms whether sciatic nerve involvement is the actual source.
For most people, yes. Physical therapy addresses the underlying cause of nerve irritation rather than just managing symptoms. That might include manual therapy, targeted exercise, nerve mobilization, or soft tissue work. Many clients notice meaningful improvement in pain and function within the first few visits.
No referral is required to start. Imaging is sometimes helpful but is not required before your first visit. Our DPTs perform a thorough clinical assessment to identify what is driving your symptoms, and we will let you know if imaging would add useful information for your plan.
It depends on what is causing it, how long it has been going on, and how your body responds. Many clients notice meaningful improvement in pain and mobility within the first few sessions. After your evaluation, we will give you a realistic sense of what to expect for your specific situation.
Usually not. We build your plan around what you can do safely while we address the root issue. Staying active is part of the process, not something to avoid. Many clients continue working and training with modifications throughout their care.
