Sciatic Pain

Sciatic pain, sciatica, and low back pain with radicular symptoms all are synonomous. This is a condition where the nerves coming from you back are pinched in the spine, or farther downstream and results in pain going down the leg. It typically feels like a burning, shooting, or electric feeling that goes partway or sometimes all the way down the leg. This home program will help to resolve your nerve pain through a gentle progression of exercises and stretches.

Disclosure: These programs are not meant to be a diagnostic or treatment as each person and each injury is different. This plan is best used as an educational guide on typical exercises that can help a variety of conditions. Not all of these exercises are necessary for each injury, and some may actually be harmful. You should always consult your healthcare provider or physical therapist to ensure that you have the best program for you. Please do not continue these exercises if symptoms worsen, and each exercise should be moderately challenging and never unsafe or painful.
