“I would highly recommend Leyton Osteopaths for anyone dealing with sciatica!
I first came in with a lot of pain in my lower back, nerve pain/tingling, and very limited mobility. Even after the first session, I felt a lot of relief. I then improved with each session thanks to the treatment and tailored exercises I was recommended.”
Margot, Stratford
“When I first went to Leyton Osteopaths for my sciatica pain, I could only walk 10 steps before I had to stop and rest because of severe pain. My right hamstring and calf would spasm and I had to get up in the middle of the night to take pain killers. Basically, I couldn't walk, sit or sleep, pain had become unbearable. But after 3 sessions with Leyton Osteopaths I am 80% cured. Pain hasn't 100% gone yet, but my leg has stopped spasming, I am only taking pain killers once a day and I am not getting up in the middle of the night. It is not an exaggeration to say I have my life back.”
Ali, Leytonstone
“I booked in with sciatica. The treatment has been amazing. Initially I was unable to cary out my daily activities and was in constant pain. In 2-3 weeks I was feeling dramatically better and in less pain. Definitely recommended.”
Sara, Walthamstow
