Back Pain and Sciatica Treatment in Mississauga
Back pain can make it hard to sit at your desk, sleep through the night or pick up your kids. When pain travels down your leg, it can be even harder to ignore.
At Shoreside Wellness, we offer chiropractic, registered massage therapy, acupuncture and osteopathy in one Mississauga clinic, so your care can be built around your pain and your goals. We have been helping people in Mississauga since 1995.
We welcome patients from across Mississauga, Port Credit and the surrounding area, and we are open 7 days a week.

Chiropractic
Our chiropractor uses gentle techniques, including Activator and drop-table adjustments, to help improve how your lower back and pelvis move. First visits are 45 minutes and follow-ups are 15 minutes.
Registered massage therapy (RMT)
Our RMTs work on the tight muscles in the back, hips and glutes that often build up around back pain and sciatica. Sessions run from 30 to 120 minutes.
Acupuncture, electro-acupuncture and cupping
Our Registered Acupuncturists use ultra-fine, single-use needles, and sometimes electro-acupuncture or cupping, to help ease pain and muscle tension. Research suggests acupuncture may help some people with ongoing low back pain. Sessions are 60, 75 or 90 minutes.
Osteopathy
Gentle, hands-on treatment that looks at how your spine, hips and the rest of your body work together.
Many people find these treatments may help ease pain and stiffness and help them move, sit and sleep more comfortably. Everyone responds differently, and our care is not a replacement for medical care.
What to Expect
Your first visit starts with questions about your pain: where it is, how long you have had it, what makes it better or worse and any scans or diagnoses you already have. Your practitioner then builds a treatment plan around you.
Most people start with regular sessions, then space them out as things improve. All treatments take place in a quiet, private room.
Not sure where to start? Call us and we will help you choose. Many people start with chiropractic or RMT for back pain, try acupuncture for ongoing pain or sciatica, and combine treatments if that helps.
Many extended health plans cover chiropractic, registered massage therapy, acupuncture and osteopathy. We provide official receipts so you can submit your claim.
When to see a doctor first: see a doctor or go to emergency right away if back pain comes with numbness in the groin or buttocks, new problems controlling your bladder or bowels, weakness in your legs, fever, or follows a fall or accident.
