Rest, painkillers, or rushed 15-minute PT visits treat your symptoms but ignore the movement dysfunctions and spinal issues driving your sciatica in the first place.

Our 3-Step Path from Sciatica Pain to Peak Performance

Step 1: Relieve

We start with a thorough 1-on-1 movement and functional assessment to identify the exact root cause of your sciatic pain. Then we get to work — reducing nerve irritation, relieving muscle tension, and calming inflammation with hands-on manual therapy, dry needling, soft tissue mobilization, and targeted therapeutic exercise.

Step 2: Rebuild

Pain relief is only the beginning. We systematically rebuild the core strength, hip stability, and neuromuscular control that protect your spine and prevent sciatica from returning. Every session is personalized, progressive, and designed around your body and your goals — not a one-size-fits-all protocol.

Step 3: Perform

Step 3: Perform

Once you're strong and moving well, we help you get back to everything you love — running, sport, work, and life — with confidence. Optional integration of performance training, strength & conditioning, and health coaching ensures your results are built to last long after your last PT session.

Sciatica Physical Therapy for Every Root Cause

 

Sciatica is rarely a single-cause condition. Our Shirley, MA physical therapy team treats the full spectrum of spinal and nerve-related conditions that drive sciatic pain — from lumbar disc issues and piriformis syndrome to hip impingement and core instability. We also treat the common co-occurring conditions that complicate recovery, so you get complete, connected care under one roof.

 

  • Spinal conditions: Low back pain, sciatica, neck pain, and mid-back pain treated with advanced manual therapy and movement retraining 
  • Lower extremity contributors: Hip pain, hip impingement (FAI), hamstring strain, IT band syndrome, and knee pain that can intensify sciatic symptoms 
  • Whole-body conditions: Arthritis, tendinopathy, headaches, pelvic floor dysfunction, and overuse injuries addressed as part of your complete recovery plan

" 

For the past month, I've been working with Courtney at Whole Health Solutions to help with serious shoulder pain. When I first came in, I could barely move my arm. Now, my range of motion has improved a lot and I can move my hand in every direction again. Courtney is a fantastic physical therapist, and I highly recommend this team to anyone who wants real results." - Yuval G.  

" I can't say enough about the crew at Whole Health Solutions. I've been going there for PT for 3 months and feel 100% better. I've met Peter, Courtney, Gary, Jianna, and Julia, and they are all dedicated to getting people healthy with exercise and nutrition. The atmosphere in the gym is always positive."

- Sean M.  

" I was first introduced to Gary and Peter when my son injured his ankle playing hockey. Their professionalism, expertise, and ability to connect with patients are outstanding. My son was in therapy the day after surgery and progressed so well that his surgeon said his recovery was 'ahead of the curve."

- Chris T.
