Sciatic Nerve Impingement (Piriformis Syndrome)

Piriformis syndrome is a dysfunction in which the piriformis muscle becomes overactive and tight which creates mechanical stress and compression on the sciatic nerve. Symptoms may include gluteal pain and pain/numbness down the leg.

Lateral Femoral Cutaneous Nerve Impingement

Greater Trochanteric Bursitis

The greater trochanteric bursa is located in the outer, upper leg (femur) and if it becomes inflamed, will create bursitis. Dealing with the local inflammation of the bursa is important, however, evaluating what muscles and joints are imbalanced that created the bursitis in the first place is key in creating a long term resolution of the bursitis.

Iliopectineal Bursitis (Groin Sprain)

Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Syndrome

Sacrotuberous Ligament Syndrome

Muscle Strains

Muscle strains are caused by work overload and a tearing of the muscle tissue (Grade I, II, or III). It is important to have this evaluated in order to know when to return to activity.
