Back Pain & Sciatica
Gentle, restorative acupuncture for back pain and related nerve discomfort
Back pain is one of the most common reasons people seek acupuncture care—and one of the most responsive. Whether it shows up as a dull ache, stiffness after sitting, or pain that radiates down the leg, it can disrupt sleep, mobility, and the sense of ease in your own body.
At ECHO, care for back pain begins with understanding how tension, inflammation, or nerve compression are affecting movement and circulation. Using gentle, targeted acupuncture, we work to calm irritated nerves, release tight muscles, and restore healthy flow through the spine, hips, and legs.
Low back pain and sciatica are part of this same landscape. Sciatic pain, in particular, can feel sharp, aching, or electric as it travels from the low back down the leg. Treatment focuses on reducing compression along the nerve pathway while helping the body relearn movement without guarding or strain.
Over time, this approach can lessen pain, improve stability, and help prevent recurrence. Each session is personalized and collaborative—meeting you where you are and supporting your pace of healing.
