Sciatica treatment in Salem, OR: Sciatica is a condition characterized by pain going down the sciatic nerve pathway which runs from the leg to the lower back. The most frequent cause of sciatica is a spinal disc herniation which puts pressure on the sciatic nerve and is present in about 90% of cases.

Every time I come in I learn something new and I feel stronger and better. All the staff and doctors are truly amazing and friendly. I love this place and highly recommend it to everyone. You guys are amazing thank you. The massage I received for the first time in my 26 year and let me tell you was the best thing in the world.
Dr. Whitmire is knowledgeable, professional, and friendly . He made it easy to understand my diagnosis and care plan. The staff at the office was friendly and helpful. Although it was a busy day I felt I got great service.
Dr. Whitmire has a first rate staff and has always been very attentive to the needs of my family. I really appreciate the full service he offers including massage therapists and physical therapy on site! His staff has been flexible with scheduling, and worked my daughter in on the same day when she was in an accident. In all, they have my trust!
I can’t begin to say how great everyone is at Whitmire! I am very glad my sister’s friend recommended them to me as I was struggling to walk and it had been a long ongoing process with many doctors. After a month there I am able to move around and getting my strength back to hopefully start running again soon.
Since I have been getting treatments my experience has been life changing.
I had really bad whiplash from a car accident I was in and I couldn’t lift my neck up . I had severe headaches, also my treatment helped me get stronger and strengthen all my weak muscles, so now I can become stronger each day.
When I first started a couple years ago I could barely walk 20 feet I couldn’t lift my neck up, very bad muscle weakness and mobility I had so much weakness throughout my body. Furthermore, now I can hike 9 miles and I can exercise again because my injuries prevented me from exercise at the time. I know my life would have been a lot different if I never would have came to this clinic, so thank you , so much for all of your help.
Dr. Whitmire is intuitive, practical, and efficient at what he does. He can take one look and know what needs adjusted. He spends time with his patients in educating them on how to do self-care and rehab for their injuries. He has both an intelligent and pleasant demeanor. I highly recommend him!
