Heat or Ice…Which Is Better? This is a common question I get from many of my patients regardless of where their pain or problem is.

Most people also ask things like how often should I use heat or ice? When is the best time? Where should I put it and for how long?
If you have Sciatica Pain chances are the pain is keeping you awake at night. Many people with Sciatic Pain find their normal or preferred sleep position aggravates their symptoms making it difficult to get ANY rest. “I just can’t get comfortable no matter what I try.” Sound familiar?
