Sciatic Nerve Pain Relief Stretches
Sciatic nerve pain often comes from tight muscles along its pathway. The hamstrings, IT band, and adductors can all contribute to compressing the sciatic nerve. These stretches might help. More sciatic nerve pain stretches:

The first stretch is for the inner hamstrings and adductor muscles. Try to stay in good alignment during the stretch.
Next is a sciatic nerve glide or sciatic nerve flossing. This helps get movement if the nerve is compressed somewhere, and it also helps activate the whole nervous system.
Finally is a three way hamstring stretch with a strap. This will also help stretch the IT band and adductors as well.

Hi!,first time watching yr channel!!๐v much for your precious help….actually suffering from pirigormid for the past 2.weeks…due to acute emotional trauma.. it happened 3years backfires time…am working on myself with self healing along with the exercise!!๐๐๐.be blessed!
Wincing after another sleepless night and a pain start to the day. Went through these stretches and feeling immediate relief!! Grateful for this video today ๐ thank you, Dr.!
Iโm in so much pain I canโt even describe it. Iโve never felt this kind of pain in my life. Gonna try these stretches before bed tonight, since many in the comments said it helped them. I really hope I can sleep peacefully tonight ๐
Subscribed I am a hs track athlete and this helped me so much. Not a sponsor just saying for other people to help them because I have trouble finding videos
What a relief to find Dr Joโs exercises for sciatic nerve! I was almost at witโs end as what to do to relieve the pain, having been to doctors and awaiting physio, and this feels so good! Love all Dr Joโs exercises, very informative and they work! Thank you so very much.
Thankyou so much, I sprained a disk 6 weeks ago and had horrible sciatica, literally 2 days of doing these and the improvement is incredible ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ thankyou thankyou for sharing
Dr Jo – you're amazing !!! I had sciatica due to shoveling soil the wrong way. And before your video, I've tried two other sciatica stretching videos. Unfortunately and alarmingly – it only made the pain worse. I waited to do your video – for I was afraid and anxious. Eventually, I'm so glad I did.
My pain isn't completely gone – but, it has greatly improved ! Thank you so much !!! I will continue with these stretches.
Now, that video is a god send! I was in so much pain last night that I couldn't sleep. Did those stretches, and after a bit of reading (to relax again) I fell straight asleep. Thanks a bunch for this! ๐๐ฝ๐
I havenโt had this kind of issue although I have improved my hamstring flexibility which I think has affected my sciatic nerve on both sides. These stretches are really good ๐๐ผ
