How it works
Stimulates local anti-inflammatory responses along the sciatic nerve pathway. Activates descending pain inhibitory systems via opioid, serotonin, and noradrenaline pathways.
Evidence for sciatica is moderate — less robust than for non-specific back pain. May be more effective for sciatica without severe neurological deficit. Choose AHPRA-registered practitioner.
