Is a deep, nagging pain in your buttock making sitting unbearable?
Does the pain radiate down your leg, mimicking sciatica, but treatments for it fall flat?
Have you done months of physical therapy with only temporary relief?
You’re not alone. Piriformis Syndrome is often misdiagnosed and mistreated as standard sciatica, leaving thousands frustrated. At Acupuncture & Wellness Clinic in Burlington, MA, Dr. Min Jeon, Lic.Ac specializes in untangling the true source of piriformis pain, using precision acupuncture enhanced with ATP Resonance BioTherapy® – offering hope when conventional approaches hit a dead end.
Why Physical Therapy and Standard Sciatica Treatments Fall Short
Traditional methods often fail because they:
✗ Treat the sciatic nerve but ignore the muscle strangling it
✗ Can’t release deep, chronic muscle spasms
✗ Overlook pelvic alignment issues
✗ Neglect the role of inflammation and scar tissue
✗ Fail to address compensatory patterns in the hips and back
How We Release the Grip on Your Sciatic Nerve

Real Patient Transformations
From Driver’s Seat to Passenger Seat (Mike, 45, Burlington, MA)
*”As a delivery driver, my piriformis pain got so bad I couldn’t sit for more than 15 minutes. PT gave me stretches but no real relief. Dr. Jeon’s treatments targeted the deep spasm I couldn’t reach. After 6 sessions, I finished my route pain-free for the first time in a year.”*
Beyond Sciatica Diagnosis (Lisa, 38, Woburn, MA)
“I was told I had sciatica, but the injections did nothing. Dr. Jeon immediately identified it was my piriformis muscle. Her combination of acupuncture and ATP therapy released the tension. The shooting pain down my leg vanished. I finally got the right diagnosis and the right treatment.”
Dr. Jeon Explains:
“The piriformis is a master compensator. When your pelvis is out of alignment, this small muscle works overtime, eventually spasming and entrapping the nerve. We don’t just rub the sore spot—we find out why it’s overworking and fix the entire kinetic chain. The relief is often immediate and profound.”
