If you’re experiencing deep buttock pain that radiates down your leg, you may be dealing with piriformis syndrome. At Heilman Chiropractic & Spinal Decompression, we help patients across Escondido find non-drug solutions for this common condition.
What Is Piriformis Syndrome?
The piriformis is a small muscle located deep in the hip. When it becomes tight or inflamed, it can irritate the sciatic nerve — causing:
- Buttock pain
- Leg pain similar to sciatica
- Stiffness when sitting
- Reduced flexibility
This condition is often triggered by prolonged sitting, sports injuries, falls, or auto accidents.
How LightForce Laser Therapy Works
We use LightForce Class IV laser therapy to support healing in deep soft tissues like the piriformis muscle.
Laser therapy may help:
- Support healthy inflammatory response
- Improve circulation
- Reduce muscle tightness
- Promote cellular repair
- Calm irritated nerve tissue
Because the piriformis lies deep in the gluteal region, a high-powered therapeutic laser can reach tissues that other surface therapies may not.
