Physical Therapy for Sciatica in Winston-Salem, NC

Stop Letting Sciatica Run the Show

People come to us when sciatic pain keeps interrupting their training and rest alone hasn't fixed it. We find the root cause and build a plan to get you back under load.

What Happens When Sciatic Pain Goes Unaddressed or Gets the Wrong Fix

You Cut Lifts and Skip Runs

You're adjusting every session around the pain, but the root cause isn't going away on its own.

The Flare-Ups Keep Returning

Passive relief calms the pain, but it doesn't fix the mechanics driving it. So the cycle keeps repeating.

You're Told to Rest and Wait It Out

Telling someone who trains to just rest and stretch doesn't address why the nerve keeps getting irritated under load.

Common Conditions We Treat

Common Issues People Work with Us to Address

People come to KPR when sciatic pain limits their training and the usual fixes haven't held up.

Shooting or radiating pain down the glute, hamstring, or calf that flares during lifting or running

Low back stiffness that limits squat depth, hinge positions, or deadlift setup

Numbness or tingling in the leg or foot that shows up during training or after long sits

Piriformis and hip tightness that aggravates nerve symptoms when squatting or running

Recurring flare-ups that return after rest or reduced training volume without a clear fix

Core and hip weakness that puts excessive demand on the lumbar spine and surrounding nerves

Incomplete recovery from prior PT that addressed symptoms without fixing the underlying mechanics

What People Say About Working with KPR on Sciatica

People dealing with sciatica need specialists who understand how nerve pain affects active people and what it takes to fix it for good.

Levi is simply the best. He worked me in sooner than I ever would have imagined, evaluated my shoulder and made me feel at ease that it was an overuse injury and not something acute, which was my fear. He worked with me over the next few weeks to where the pain was completely gone, and my shoulder is stronger and better than ever! Going forward which exercises I need to do on a regular basis to keep my shoulders strong and healthy. Thanks Levi!!

Levi did an incredible job helping me with a shoulder injury. He not only helped me feel better but helped me be more aware of why the injury happened in the first place and what to work on to prevent it from happening again. Levi is incredibly dedicated to his patients and a great PT all around. Definitely recommend his services!
Vanessa Rodriguez
Dr. Levi is the best PT in town! I went to see him for a shoulder and knee issue, which have improved tremendously!! He is very professional and very knowledgeable. Loved the dry needling sessions also!! Kinetic rehab & performance will be the only place I will go to for any future sessions! :) Check it out! You won’t regret it!!

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about physical therapy for sciatica in Winston-Salem and what to expect at KPR.

How is PT different from just resting my sciatica?

Rest can settle the irritation temporarily, but it doesn't address the mechanics or loading patterns that triggered it. Physical therapy identifies what's driving your symptoms, whether that's hip mobility, lumbar movement, or training technique, and builds a plan to fix it so the flare-ups stop coming back.

Can I keep training while I deal with sciatica?

Most people can. We'll assess which movements are aggravating the nerve and modify your training accordingly. The goal is to keep you active while the underlying issue gets addressed, not bench you for weeks while things calm down on their own.

What makes sciatica keep coming back?

Recurring sciatica usually comes from incomplete rehab. The pain resolves but the movement pattern or loading issue that triggered it never gets corrected. We address the root cause directly so flare-ups stop being a regular part of your training cycle.

Does KPR take insurance for sciatica treatment?

We're in-network with Aetna. For all other insurance, we're out-of-network and can provide a superbill for possible reimbursement through your out-of-network benefits. We also accept HSA and FSA, and offer payment plans for cash-pay visits.

Do I need a referral to get started?

No. North Carolina allows direct access to physical therapy, so you can schedule with us without seeing a physician first. Just fill out the contact form and we'll reach out to schedule your evaluation and answer any questions about your situation.
