I've been suffering from sciatic pain since i was 15. I'm 29 . I freaking cried when I started to feel relief. I still have alot of therapy left. Eternally grateful. Thank you.

[varunkumar]

Piriformis and Infraspinatus are the root cause of hip and shoulder pain is what I learned from this channel

[MrBlacksight]

I have something similar brought on by a traffic accident. Docs here have no answers. This channel is teaching me so much.👍

[jofrancis]

I love the skeletal images they help alot.

I had this for a long time. Excruciating pain every time I walked. I eventually sorted it out by riding a bike and doing trap bar squats, but it was a very low point in my life. Glad I'm done with it.

I have just tested this rotation and it's like someone blind being able to see for the first time. This is such amazing and useful information. Now all I have to do is strengthen my glute due to a stretched muscle. Thank you so much as this is life saving information. I wish you lots of wealth.

I have it right now in my right butt cheek and sciatic pain that goes down my leg… It sucks lol - I’m 36 and this stems from my powerlifting days.. Take it easy guys, there is modern medicine and stretching, but the pain hasn’t truly left over the last 6 years. I have been able to get back to 80-90% where I was but it’s never fully healed. Just be careful and take care of your body.

[HumanBodyMaintenance]

I’ve derived the most utility out of your videos. My body thanks you!!

[Uservfjhejf]

For a month my hip left like it was on fire, glute exercises have been helping. When it first started, I couldn't walk for 3 days

[funningames]

Great information! That's the most diagnostic video I've seen for this as well as giving the associated therapies. Perhaps you should hash tag sciatica or mention sciatica in the title somewhere, because that's where I started my search. I don't believe most people will search and find the name of the muscle. Most people who are in the various professions that treat this really want to bang the cash register and kick you out the door.

[RefineIrony]

I am so impressed by not only this infotainment, but by the times...

How absolutely informative and helpful!

[noirprncess]

I hope there is a LONG video for this. I'm suffering from this issue right now and need a plan to strengthen this area.

What helped was doing physical therapy, I went to the doctor, and he referred me to a PT.
For the pain of piriformis syndrome and sciatica symptoms, I took naproxen (it was prescribed to me by my Doc)
The pain was so horrible it woke me up every 20 minutes at night. Not getting enough sleep also makes you feel more pain. Make sure not to take to many pain relive pills because it hurts your internal organs in a long run. Please talk to your Doctor!
The Heating Pad helped so much. I did it for up to 8 hours a day.

The best exercise will be either doing clam shells, or pirifomsis stretch!
For the Scitica Nerve it will be Nerve Glides.

I highly recommend using a tennis ball and doing some soft tissue work around the buttock pain before exercising.

Again, going to the PT was a great choice.
It took me 3 whole month! Currently it does still feel a little tender but I can go back to work! It was really tough.

A bartender told me about these. It's a local MMA bar and the bartenders are also fighters. But he knew exactly which muscle this was and what was causing my issue. Thanks to J C I now know what to look for when doing research about my pain. Thanks to these videos for showing how the exercises are done.

[lydiat]

OMG it worked like magic, this is god send. Thank you very much for this video, I felt IMMEDIATE relief. I just need to do everyday to get rid of the pain permanently. 👍😍👍👍

[JoseMartinez-fqzl]

I just did this and had instant relief. Thank you so much

[MrKrueger]

I couldn't work out what mine was, I've tried professional help and done massage, stretches and exercises ... But this video fixed it . Brilliant help 👍👍👍

[Abelblack]

I ve been struggling with this exact pain since October. I am so glad to have come across this video, hopefully I can remedy the situation and be able to squat heavy again

[gokulsimson]

This information helps me a lot. Thank you so much.
