Sciatica Treatment In Covent Garden

Relieve Sciatica nerve pain at Fit2Function

Are you suffering with Sciatica? Do you have shooting pains in your legs that make it difficult to walk? Are you looking for Sciatica treatments in London? Then our Covent Garden clinic could be the answer.

What Is Sciatica?

If you are suffering with Sciatica you will normally experience pain, numbness and/or weakness along the sciatic nerve route. This runs from your lower back, down the back of the leg and down to your toes. Sometimes this can happen on both legs.

At our Covent Garden clinic we use K-laser to stimulate and strengthen nerve pathways, reduce pain and increase blood flow to the affected area. We then combine this with Shockwave and percussion therapy which will help to reduce tightness in surrounding muscles. When your pain has reduced and you are able to exercise we will begin the strengthening phase. This will be completed with one our expert practitioners in our onsite gym. Throughout the strengthening phase, there will be an emphasis on core and lower limb strengthening.

The recovery process varies depending on the severity of your Sciatica. However normally our patients recover within 8-12 sessions.

What Our Clients Have tO sAY

"It worked - and faster than I could have dreamt possible. I had a chronic groin injury which had suddenly started getting worse. With a few weeks of physio from these guys it was completely healed and I had 100% flexibility back. Not only that but they were able to greatly speed up my recovery from a knee injury. I was told it would take a year to get over by NHS but now I'm walking on it normally and able to dance and work out with almost no limitations. I am now fitter and better educated than when I walked into the clinic and will be using what I learned from this process in my ongoing fitness. Put bluntly, these guys are worth it."

David Hess, 40, London

“My name is Farid, I’ve been coming to Fit2Function for three months now having previously been to so many places. I tried everything acupuncture, massage, osteopaths, you name it. When I first came to Fit2Function, I had a high 8/10 pain but with the help of Laser Therapy and Shockwave Therapy I am almost back to normal. I feel better and I am now able to work out in the gym two times per week with no limitations. I would recommend Fit2Function clinic to everyone with lower back pain. It’s the best thing to do for your health and good luck to everybody.”

Farid Hamjab, 52, London

"I found out about Fit2function clinic through Instagram and I contacted them because I had Sciatica and shoulder pain. I ended up taking two treatments to deal with both the sciatica and shoulder pain. I couldn't move my arm and the pain used to wake me up during the night. We've started with Shockwave Therapy and Laser Therapy to reduce the pain and kick start the healing. From not being able to move my arm, I now have full function, no pain at all and able to play Handball and Volleyball again"

Liliana Silva, 30, London

George has helped me so much over the last few weeks, treating a hamstring injury and creating a strengthening program to make sure it doesn’t happen again! Treatment allowed me to run pain-free almost immediately and the specific strength exercises have meant lasting results. He has made my first injury rehab / physio experience a positive one and although I’m doing everything I can to avoid another injury, I’ll definitely be back should I have an issue.

Beatrice Bowlby, 24, London

I recently had a few sessions at this physio clinic, and I have to say, it was an outstanding experience. George was absolutely fantastic - not only was he extremely knowledgeable, but he also had a genuine care for my well-being. He provided insightful advice and effective treatments that have significantly helped with my knee issues. I truly appreciate the personalized approach and the dedication to my recovery. I definitely recommend this clinic to anyone in need of physiotherapy. Their professionalism and expertise are top-notch!

Enrico Contaldo, 29 London

Very impressed by the effectiveness of the treatment. I chose to see Anna given her background as an athlete - she was a pleasure to interact with and was on point with diagnosis and mix of therapy and exercise which had my lower back in a much better place very quickly. I also have to travel a lot with work and her advice was practical and tailored well to my circumstances. Would thoroughly recommend her and I know exactly where to go if I have any future issues. Thank you!!

Steven Heanly, 45, London

I went to Fit2Function and worked with Anna for 7 sessions. I had a knee injury that had been causing my problems for years & after just 1 month I'm on track to get back to 100%. She was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I would highly recommend her & Fit2Function for any sports physiotherapy you need.
