www.SukieBaxter.com This is the best sciatica stretch to use if you suffer from sciatic nerve pain, also commonly called sciatica or piriformis syndrome. This simple stretch eases sciatic pain by lengthening your lateral rotator muscles, through which your sciatic nerve runs. When these muscles get tight, as they do from sitting for long periods of time or activities like cycling that cause abnormal tension in the hip and butt area, they impinge the sciatic nerve, causing pain down the back of the leg that doctors refer to as sciatica. Fortunately, no drastic measures need be taken to alleviate your sciatic nerve pain. Simply use this stretch daily to lengthen the muscles impinging on your sciatic nerve and your sciatica will disappear in no time! Also, it’s important to remember to move around a lot during the day, especially if you have the kind of job that keeps you sitting for long periods. Sitting creates tension in the hips and can cause sciatic nerve pain. If you must sit for long periods, take frequent breaks. Even getting up to walk around the office for five minutes every two hours makes an enormous difference and can be just the ticket to avoiding future sciatic nerve pain.

the FIRST? thing you have to explain, is HOW you will get on the floor with a full blown sciatica. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE.

I woke up the other morning with serious sciatica pain. I quickly went on YouTube and found your video..I literally was better as soon as I was done stretching. I don’t exercise regularly so my hand was under my knee? (thanks for that alternative) but I was able to go about my day pain free! Had to do it again this morning and again, worked like magic! Thank you so much!!!

Would rather of had toothache!! Anyways, thanks for replying to my post. I’ve got 2 weeks sick, off work! If i went back tomorrow! i could end up having 6 months off again! That would be 3 times then.My hip has dropped a little bit the one side! But tablets! Yuck! &? physio acupuncture, will sort that out! Once again, tha

@Bladerunner55217 Nice! Yeah, that back of? the hip gets ignored a lot but it’s kind of important!

@sakis1011 hypertonic lateral rotators, i.e. tight muscles in? the back of your hip. Try child’s pose from yoga to gently lengthen your lower back and progress from there.

@droopyru1 Hold the stretch for 15-30 seconds, more if you can. Relax into it and use your breath to release tension (breathe deeply,? relax each time you exhale)

HI Sukie, I just started seriously stretching and I do hamstring quads shin and hip flexor . I thought I had the basics down for? lower body but then I found this video and I tried it tonight and I was very tight . So I am excited to work on this. I feel better than ever playing tennis with my new flexibility. Have a good week and thanks.

@SukieBaxterWellnes You should never grab your knee and hold…this tends to irritate your knee and cuts of some circulation. Always grab behind your thigh, it may seen a bit uncomfortable at first but should be done as so.? This is indeed a great exercise though!

@Anuhn so what is? to be done about excruciating pain?

@SukieBaxterWellnes Thank you for answering. About the stretching that’s exactly what the physician? said.

@Anuhn Not normal. A? little soreness is normal, excruciating pain is not.

@foropera If you have a meniscus tear, you may need surgery to repair it. Consult a physician. If it is? not torn, stretching your quads/hip flexors may be more appropriate and helpful for you.
