4 Best Sciatic Nerve Pain Exercises – How to Relieve Sciatic Nerve Pain in 7 Days

4 Best Sciatic Nerve Pain Exercises – Best Treatment for Sciatica

http://www.besttreatmentforsciatica.com

Sciatica is more than just a simple pain in the butt. When it strikes, it causes misery and debilitating pain that instantly downgrades your life.

Don’t fret! In this video, I’m going to share 4 sciatic nerve pain exercises that will zap your sciatic pain.

The sciatic nerve runs right through this tiny, but powerful muscle in your butt called the piriformis. The piriformis is a tiny, pear-shaped muscle deep in the glutes that helps laterally rotate the hip. If gets too tight, it can impinge the sciatic nerve that runs through or under it, causing tremendous pain, tingling, and numbness through the glutes and into the lower leg.

Here are the 4 Sciatic Nerve Pain Exercises:

1. Piriformis Stretch
When performing the piriformis stretch, make sure to contract your abdominals before crossing your leg and resting your foot on the other knee.

Hold this stretch for 30 seconds and then repeat with your other leg.

2. Seated Hip Stretch
While in a sitting position, cross your right leg over your straightened left leg.

Hug your right knee with your left arm, making sure to keep your back straight.

Hold this stretch for 30 to 60 seconds, and then repeat on the opposite side.

3. Pigeon Pose
Start in Downward-Facing Dog pose with your feet together.

Draw your right knee forward and turn it out to the right, so your right leg is bent and your left leg is extended straight behind you.
Slowly lower both legs.

Hold the position for five to ten breaths, and then switch to the other side.

By now, you should be experiencing some much-needed sciatica pain relief. But we’re not done. I’m saving the best exercise for last.

4. Self-Trigger Point Therapy
Performing self trigger-point therapy using a lacrosse or tennis ball can be very effective at delivering sciatica pain relief.

All you have to do is find a painful spot in the glutes, place the ball at that location and then relax your body into the ball.

Hold this position for 30 to 60 seconds or until you notice a significant reduction in pain. Move to the next painful spot. The total time spent on this exercise should be between 5 and 10 minutes.

Practicing these 4 exercises once to twice a day can definitely bring you much needed sciatica pain relief. And then, of course, being a massage therapist I have to encourage you to book a massage to make sure all the knots have been annihilated.

I recently came across this innovative 86-page E-book called, Sciatica SOS, which reveals how you can experience sciatica pain relief in just 7 days without drugs, surgery or physical therapy.

This natural system of permanently getting rid of sciatica includes 4 components: remedies, exercises, therapy, and diet.
Here’s a peek inside…

• Home remedies (page 26) – you will learn 7 home remedies that are nutritious natural analgesics that will speed up the healing of your sciatica and ease your level of pain.• Exercise program (page 29) – You’ll learn 32 specific exercises to relieve sciatica to resolve any underlying causes.• Sleep therapy (page 62) – an essential, but often overlooked, component in treating sciatica. In this section, you’ll learn the best sleeping position for sciatica.

For most people with sciatica, these four treatments will be enough to resolve pain quickly.

But for those who need a little extra help, there are also advanced sections about how massage helps sciatica including specific “Trigger Point Therapy” methods to use, as well as how to “Reorganize Your Skeletal System.”• Diet (page 64) – simple, easy alterations you can make to your diet to quickly resolve pain and prevent sciatica from returning.

The Worst Way to Fix Sciatica (DO THIS INSTEAD!)

Sciatic nerve pain is one of the most common sources of discomfort, especially in men over 40 that lift weights. The reason why this is so common is that we do too many things that put us in position to suffer from sciatica in the first place, and then we don’t know how to fix sciatica once we have it. In this video, I’m going to show you why foam rolling and smashing the piriformis muscle with a lacrosse ball is the worst thing you can do to fix sciatica.

To start, it is important to differentiate true sciatic nerve pain from something that looks like sciatic nerve pain. If the source of your pain is from a bulging or herniated lumbar disk, then the stretches shown in this video are not going to fix your problem. In fact, you will want to make an appointment to be seen by a licensed physical therapist to help you treat your disc herniation another way.

On the other hand, if your sciatic nerve like symptoms are arising from the compression of the sciatic nerve from a tight piriformis, then you will want to pay close attention to what I am showing you here. Firstly, the nerve itself can get compressed by having a tight piriformis muscle. Because this muscle lies directly over the nerve as it exists the pelvis, there is a tendency for this muscle to compress the structure when it is tight.

Lately, we have been told by many that the best way to fix a tight muscle is to not stretch it but rather foam roll it or use a lacrosse ball on it to smash it. In this case, that is the worst advice you can be given. The lack of tissue thickness in this region (made worse by having weak or underdeveloped glutes) leads to a high probability that while attempting to ease the tension in the piriformis that you will be further compressing the nerve itself and causing more pain.

Even a foam roller does not adequately fix this problem since you will still be compressing the area, albeit with the force dispersed a little bit more evenly across the muscle than with the lacrosse ball. Either way, the treatment approach is not correct.

The best way to fix your sciatic nerve pain is to gently stretch the piriformis, but to make sure and do it consistently! 3-4 times per day for 5-6 days a week is a great start. Hold each stretch for 45 seconds to a minutes and make sure not to round your lower back in order to keep the focus on your hips. Place the tight hip in front of you with your knee and hip bent to 90 degrees and lean forward without losing the slight arch in your lower back.

You should feel an incredible relief without ever having to start cranking on the stretch or bearing through much discomfort when doing. It’s the same approach of doing the most you can do without doing more than your body can recover from, that has the ATHLEAN-X Training System creating loyal followers and great results every day.
