Pain shooting down the back of your leg? ⚡
“Sciatica” that keeps coming back no matter how much you stretch?

The problem might not be your low back…

The sciatic nerve travels directly underneath (and sometimes through) the deep external rotator muscles of the hip — including the piriformis and surrounding rotators.

When adhesion or restriction forms in these muscles, it can irritate or compress the sciatic nerve, leading to:

🔥 Burning pain down the leg
🔥 Deep glute pain that won’t release
🔥 Tightness that stretching doesn’t fix
🔥 Tingling or numbness into the calf or foot

If you’ve tried adjustments, massage, injections, exercises, or foam rolling and nothing lasts… the missing piece may be nerve entrapment from adhesion.

At Peak Action Physical Therapy in Tucson, Arizona, we focus on identifying and manually addressing the root cause — not just chasing symptoms.

Pain lasting 6+ months?

Foot pain and numbness that just won’t go away? 👣⚡ It might not be “just plantar fasciitis.”

The peroneal nerve (a branch of your sciatic nerve) can get glued down with adhesion as it travels down the leg. When that nerve gets trapped, it can cause foot pain, numbness, tingling, weakness, and even contribute to sciatic-type symptoms.

Stretching.
Orthotics.
Injections.
Exercises.

None of those remove adhesion.

Adhesion forms after overuse or trauma and literally binds the nerve down, limiting its ability to glide. If you don’t remove it, the symptoms keep coming back.

Here we are clearing adhesion off the peroneal nerve to restore normal nerve mobility and function 🔥

Struggling with chronic hip or groin pain?

You’ve tried:
• Stretching
• Mobility routines
• Deep tissue massage
• Foam rolling

But nothing actually lasts.

That’s usually a sign you’re not dealing with a flexibility problem…

You’re dealing with adhesion.

Adhesion is one of the most overlooked causes of chronic pain — and 9 out of 10 people have never even heard of it.

When tissue gets glued down, it restricts normal movement, alters joint mechanics, and keeps irritation coming back no matter how much you stretch.

Here we’re removing adhesion from the adductor complex — one of the most common tissues responsible for persistent groin and hip pain when it becomes restricted.

If adhesion is present in this area, it can create:
• Sharp groin pain
• Pinching in the hip
• Tightness that never fully releases
• Pain during lunges, squats, or rotation

It takes a specialized provider to properly identify and remove this tissue restriction.

Your shoulder pain might not actually be coming from your shoulder.

It could be coming from a neurovascular sleeve entrapment at the pec.

When the nerves and vessels traveling from the neck into the arm get restricted or glued down with adhesion near the pectoralis minor region, it can create:

• Front shoulder pain
• Weakness with pressing or overhead work
• Numbness or tingling into the arm
• A deep, hard-to-pinpoint ache
• Symptoms that don’t fully resolve with typical rotator cuff treatment

If the neurovascular bundle can’t glide freely, the shoulder won’t function normally.

By removing adhesion and restoring mobility to the nerve and vascular sleeve at the pec, pressure reduces — and the shoulder often feels dramatically better.

Still dealing with chronic foot pain even after seeing multiple podiatrists? 🤔👣

Orthotics…
Injections…
Stretching…
Shockwave…

And it still keeps coming back?

Here’s why 👇

Your pain may not be coming from the plantar fascia alone.

The medial and lateral plantar nerves — both branches of the tibial nerve (which itself comes from the sciatic nerve) — travel along the bottom of the foot and control sensation and intrinsic foot stability.

When adhesion forms around these nerves, they can become:

⚡ Irritated
⚡ Restricted
⚡ Glued down
⚡ Unable to glide properly

This can create:

🔥 Burning in the arch
🔥 Heel pain that won’t resolve
🔥 Tingling in the sole
🔥 Pain with prolonged standing
🔥 “Plantar fasciitis” that never fully heals

If the nerve is restricted, stretching alone won’t fix it.
Orthotics won’t free it.
Strengthening without restoring nerve glide won’t solve the root problem.

The adhesion must be located and carefully removed so the nerve can move normally again. 🧠✨

That’s what we’re addressing here.

Pain going down the back of your leg?

It might not be your sciatic nerve.

It could be your posterior femoral cutaneous nerve — a small, often overlooked nerve that runs through your buttock and down the back of your thigh.

When this nerve gets irritated or glued down by adhesion, it can cause:

• Butt pain
• Posterior thigh pain
• Burning or aching when sitting
• Symptoms that feel like sciatica — but aren’t

This tiny hidden nerve is the root cause of a lot of chronic posterior leg pain that gets misdiagnosed.

It takes a skilled provider who understands nerve anatomy to properly locate and treat it.

Fixing chronic sciatic pain by removing adhesion from the sciatic nerve and the surrounding external rotator muscles.

When the sciatic nerve gets stuck or compressed by scar tissue around the deep hip rotators, it can cause burning, shooting pain down the leg, tightness in the glutes, and weakness that just won’t go away.

Stretching it.
Foam rolling it.
Adjusting it.

None of that will last if the nerve is glued down.

At Peak Action Physical Therapy in Tucson, Arizona, we specialize in restoring normal nerve mobility so the pain stops coming back.

Fixing chronic foot pain by using shockwave therapy to break down adhesion along the plantar side of the foot, especially around the medial and lateral plantar nerves.

When these nerves become irritated or restricted by surrounding tissue, it can lead to burning, stabbing, or persistent arch pain that just won’t go away. Restoring proper tissue mobility helps reduce nerve irritation and improve overall foot function.

Low back pain that won’t go away… even after stretching, adjustments, or core work?

It might not be your disc.
It might be your superior cluneal nerve getting irritated as it crosses over the iliac crest.

When adhesion builds up around this tiny nerve, it can refer pain right across the low back and into the upper glute — and it often gets misdiagnosed as “facet” or “SI joint” pain.

By releasing that stuck tissue, we allow the nerve to glide again and calm down the irritation — giving you real relief instead of temporary symptom management.

Chronic low back and front hip pain that won’t go away?

It might not be your disc.
It might not be your SI joint.

It could be your femoral nerve getting stuck along the psoas muscle.

When adhesion glues this nerve down, it can cause:

• Deep low back pain
• Front hip tightness
• Groin discomfort
• Pain when standing up straight
• Symptoms that don’t respond to stretching

If the nerve can’t glide freely, it gets irritated every time you move.

This is how we free it — restoring motion and taking pressure off the nerve at the source.

Not all “sciatica” starts in your low back.

The tibial nerve is a major branch of the sciatic nerve that runs down the back of your leg into the foot.

When this nerve gets restricted by surrounding soft tissue or adhesion, it can cause:

• Burning or shooting pain down the leg
• Tightness in the calf
• Tingling into the foot
• Persistent “sciatic” symptoms that never fully go away

If the nerve can’t glide properly, stretching alone won’t fix it — because the restriction isn’t just muscular.

Here we’re addressing tibial nerve restriction to restore proper nerve mobility and reduce chronic leg pain.

That burning, aching pain in your foot?

It’s not always plantar fasciitis.

The tibial nerve branches into the medial and lateral plantar nerves near the inside of your ankle.

If that nerve gets compressed or glued down with adhesion, it can cause:

• Heel pain
• Arch pain
• Numbness or tingling
• Pain with walking or standing

If you only treat the bottom of the foot… you’re missing the source.

We remove the nerve entrapment and restore normal glide so the foot can calm down naturally.

Free the nerve.
Relieve the pressure.
Move without pain.
