Sciatica and piriformis syndrome can cause similar symptoms, but they aren't the same. 👇

🔹 Sciatica is caused by irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve, often from a problem in the lower back. Pain typically starts in the back and travels down the leg.

🔹 Piriformis syndrome occurs when the piriformis muscle compresses the sciatic nerve. Pain usually begins in the buttock and often doesn't travel below the knee.

Getting the correct diagnosis is key to finding the right treatment and getting back to doing what you love. If your pain persists or worsens, Contact Backworks today on 01702 342329 to book an appointment.

Continuous learning helps us stay up to date and deliver the highest standard of care.

Last week, the Backworks team enjoyed a fantastic summer social!

Summer is a great time for young athletes to stay active, but periods of rapid growth can increase the risk of injury.

Chiropractors can help support adolescent athletes through injury prevention, rehabilitation, and advice on training, recovery, nutrition and sleep—helping them stay healthy, perform at their best, and enjoy sport safely all season long.

Sitting or standing for long periods can lead to muscle weakness, stiffness, and back pain—but regular movement can help.

Try the BCA's Stand: Stretch: Stride rule:

✔ Stand – Break up long periods of sitting.
✔ Stretch – Reduce tension and improve mobility.
✔ Stride – Take regular walks to keep your body moving.



Small changes throughout the day can make a big difference to your spinal health.

If you're experiencing shoulder pain, instability, shoulder blade winging, or breathing-related discomfort, serratus anterior dysfunction could be contributing to the problem. At Backworks, we provide thorough assessments and personalised rehabilitation plans to help you move and feel better.
