Chiropractic Telemedicine for Sciatica Relief

Chiropractic Telemedicine for Sciatica Relief
Complex examination and treatment of back pain with examination and MRI of the spine in a chiropractic and functional medicine clinic

Integrated Medicine Holistic Healthcare in El Paso, TX

Living with sciatica in El Paso can feel exhausting. The sharp, shooting pain from your lower back down your leg can make driving across town, sitting at your desk, or even walking through Sunland Park Mall almost impossible. At ChiroMed – Integrated Medicine Holistic Healthcare on the West Side of El Paso, we understand how much sciatica can disrupt your life. That’s why we now offer full telemedicine visits so you can get expert diagnosis, chiropractic guidance, natural pain relief plans, and ongoing care — all from the comfort of home.

Dr. Alexander Jimenez and the ChiroMed team combine chiropractic, functional medicine, physical rehabilitation, and nutrition to treat the root cause of your sciatica, not just mask the symptoms. With telemedicine, El Paso and Horizon City patients no longer have to fight traffic on I-10 or sit in pain in a waiting room.

Why Sciatica Patients in El Paso Love ChiroMed Telemedicine

  • No driving across El Paso in pain (skip Mesa, Resler, or Doniphan traffic completely)
  • Same-day or next-day video appointments available
  • See the same doctor every time – Dr. Jimenez or one of his licensed providers
  • Secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform that works on phone, tablet, or computer
  • Prescriptions sent straight to your favorite El Paso pharmacy (Walgreens, CVS, or local compounding pharmacies)
  • Insurance accepted the same as in-office visits (most plans cover telehealth 100%)

How ChiroMed Uses Telemedicine to Help Your Sciatica

  1. Accurate Remote Diagnosis During your video visit, Dr. Jimenez will ask detailed questions about your pain and watch you perform simple movements on camera. Most of the time, he can tell whether your sciatica comes from a herniated disc, piriformis syndrome, spinal stenosis, or sacroiliac joint dysfunction — without you leaving home (Jimenez, 2025a).
  2. Personalized Holistic Treatment Plan. Every ChiroMed telemedicine plan is custom-built and may include:
    • Guided at-home nerve flossing and McKenzie Method exercises
    • Anti-inflammatory nutrition and supplement recommendations
    • Posture and ergonomic corrections for remote workers
    • Natural muscle-relaxing protocols instead of long-term medications
    • Referral for in-office care only when hands-on adjustments or Class IV laser therapy are needed
  3. Convenient Follow-Ups & Progress Tracking Weekly or bi-weekly video check-ins let Dr. Jimenez see how your pain level, walking distance, and sleep have improved. Plans are adjusted in real time, so you heal faster.

Real Results from El Paso Patients Using ChiroMed Telemedicine

  • Maria R. (West El Paso) – “I couldn’t even drive to the office because the pain shot down my leg every time I pressed the brake. Dr. Jimenez diagnosed me over video, taught me three stretches, and within two weeks I was back to walking my dogs in Album Park.”
  • Carlos M. (Horizon City) – “I thought I would need surgery. After six telemedicine visits and the home exercises Dr. Jimenez showed me, my MRI showed the disc was healing on its own. Saved me thousands.”

7 Ways ChiroMed Telemedicine Beats Traditional Sciatica Care

  • Save 1–2 hours of driving and waiting
  • Start feeling better the same week instead of waiting weeks for an appointment
  • Family members can join the call to learn how to help you at home
  • Lower risk of flare-ups caused by sitting in a car or on an exam table
  • Continue care even if you travel to Las Cruces or Juárez
  • Same holistic, drug-free approach ChiroMed has used for over 30 years
  • No exposure to waiting-room germs — perfect during flu or COVID season

How to Book Your Sciatica Telemedicine Appointment at ChiroMed Today

  1. Call (915) 850-0900 or text “TELEHEALTH” to the same number
  2. Or book online 24/7 at www.ChiroMedElPaso.com
  3. Choose “Telemedicine – New Patient” or “Telemedicine – Follow Up”
  4. Fill out the short intake form (takes 3–5 minutes)
  5. Join your secure video visit from anywhere with Wi-Fi

Most new-patient telemedicine visits are scheduled the same or the next day.

When You Still Need to Come In-Person (and When You Don’t)

Dr. Jimenez is honest — about 70–80% of sciatica cases at ChiroMed improve dramatically with telemedicine and at-home protocols alone. We only ask you to come to the West El Paso clinic when you need:

  • Spinal decompression therapy
  • Class IV deep-tissue laser
  • Hands-on chiropractic adjustments
  • Diagnostic ultrasound or nerve conduction studies

Even then, we start with telemedicine, so you only drive in when you’re already feeling better, making the trip easier.
