Sciatica usually starts when spinal discs (a slip-discs) or joints affect the sciatic nerve, causing discomfort in the lower back, hips, or legs. Spondylolisthesis, on the other hand, happens when a spinal bone slips forward, which can lead to stiffness, nerve irritation, or reduced mobility. Both conditions can impact daily life—so early care is key.
At CSC, we use NSD Therapy®, a targeted method that blends spinal decompression, focused chiropractic techniques, and physiotherapy tools to improve motion, posture, and spinal alignment. It's structured care, tailored to your specific condition.

Understanding Sciatica, Pinched Nerves & Nerve Discomfort
Sciatica refers to nerve-related symptoms that follow the sciatic nerve pathway—from the lower back through the hips, buttocks, and legs. It often results from a pinched nerve, commonly caused by spinal disc issues like herniation, bulging, or narrowing of the spinal canal.
When the sciatic nerve is compressed, it can trigger nerve discomfort, numbness, or weakness in the legs—affecting your ability to walk, sit, or stay active. This kind of nerve compression may also be linked to muscle imbalances, poor posture, or spinal misalignments.

What is Spondylolisthesis?
Spondylolisthesis happens when one vertebra slips forward over the one beneath it. This shift in alignment can result from prior injury, congenital conditions, or age-related structural changes in the spine. It may affect movement and posture, especially when left unchecked.
Clinically, spondylolisthesis is graded based on how far the vertebra has moved:
• Grade I: Less than 25% forward slippage
• Grade II: 26-50% forward slippage
• Grade III: 51-75% forward slippage
• Grade IV: Over 75% forward slippage
Some cases are stable and may not progress, while others may become unstable and require monitoring through periodic assessments like spinal X-rays. Stability is key in deciding whether daily function can be maintained with movement-based care or if further intervention is necessary.
Research shows that non-surgical programs combining physiotherapy and spinal care techniques can improve outcomes in low-grade spondylolisthesis, helping restore spinal stability and reduce daily limitations.
