Sciatic nerve pain doesn't have to control your life. At Whole Health Solutions & Sports Performance, our doctors of physical therapy deliver 1-on-1, 60-minute sessions designed to find and fix the root cause of your sciatica — not just mask the pain. Cash-based, performance-oriented care for active adults, athletes, and motivated individuals across Shirley and North Central Massachusetts. If you're searching for sciatica physical therapy near me, your relief starts here.
Shooting pain down your leg, burning numbness, and relentless lower back aching make it impossible to sit, stand, or sleep comfortably — no matter what you try.
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.
You've cut back on running, sports, and even daily tasks. Without a real plan to rebuild strength and mobility, the cycle of flare-ups, fear, and frustration keeps repeating.
Whole Health Solutions & Sports Performance is not a traditional insurance-driven PT mill. We deliver cash-based, 1-on-1, 60-minute sciatica physical therapy sessions in Shirley, MA — where your DPT knows your name, your history, and your goals every single visit. Our expert team integrates manual therapy, dry needling, neuromuscular re-education, and progressive therapeutic exercise to relieve your sciatica and build the strength to keep it gone.
"This is not a traditional, insurance-driven physical therapy clinic. Jianna practices a performance-oriented rehabilitation model. Her work integrates dry needling, massage, movement retraining, nutrition, mindset, and the emotional aspects of healing. In just a couple of months, I've begun to regain meaningful mobility and reduced pain."

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.

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.

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 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.
"
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."
