DALLAS - Nov. 4, 2013 - PRLog -- DALLAS, TX (October 31, 2013)…Sciatica is a painful condition, one Jennifer Cano knows well. Now a member of Massage Envy Uptown Spa at West Village (http://www.massageenvy.com/clinics/TX/Uptown-at-West-Village.aspx?dmaid=10), she says, “It used to affect my life entirely.”

Jennifer’s friend Alicia is the clinic administrator of the Uptown Spa. She suggested Jennifer give massage a try to help relieve the pain. After learning Jennifer’s problem areas, Aliciapaired her with licensed massage therapist Misty.

“I started with Misty in February and decided after my first session with herto get a membership at Massage Envy Spa,” Jennifer states. “Misty’s technique made me a believer, and I’m very thankful that Alicia was able to pair me up with her according to my problem areas.”

Sciatica is the name for a set of symptoms involving the left or right sciatic nerves, or both. Pain is caused by compression or irritation to one or both nerves.Usually only one side of the body is affected. Common symptoms are lower back pain, buttock pain, and pain, numbness or weakness to parts of the leg or foot. Moving or controlling the leg may be difficult.

For Jennifer, her left leg was the problem. The sciatic nerve hurt so much she went to a specialist and was taking medication for pain relief and nerve pain several times a day. “I was referred to and received physical therapy. I also joined a gym and went frequently.

“I’m a bilingual women's case manager at a domestic violence shelter. The pain affected my sleep. I couldn’t sleep more than a few hours continuously – at times I was running on maybe five hours of interrupted sleep. And that was a good night.

“I couldn’t stay seated for long periods of time at work. I was constantly getting up and walking around. The pain affected everything – car rides, going to the movies, sleeping, just everything. It was NO fun!”

Massage changed that. “I always feel relief after my sessions with Misty,” Jennifer explains. “I’m not taking any medications now. I still go to the gym. I have at least one massage monthly now, occasionally getting a second one. At this point, I no longer have sciatic pains. And although I don't have pain, I still enjoy getting massages. I always look forward to my monthly massage.”

Alicia is happy that massage therapy worked for her friend. “She told me recently that with regular massages with Misty, coupled with exercise, her pain has subsided drastically and is almost nonexistent.She is now able to walk and even sit for longer periods of time without pain and thanks massage therapy for the relief.”

Jennifer adds, “I get massages now for self care and relaxation. I honestly can’t say if massage continues to be a factor in preventing the pain, but it is the one continuous thing I've done throughout while trying to remedy my sciatica.”
