The sciatic nerve is the largest nerve in the whole body, and if you suffer from sciatic nerve pain you're probably not surprised by this. The pain feels debilitating and relentless. I suffered from sciatic nerve pain in my low back and down the back of my legs for years, and in this video I share with you the stretches that helped relieve this chronic pain, and prevent it from ever returning. I do some version of these stretches every day and I haven't had sciatic pain in years. I'm excited to share these stretches with you, and I'm hopeful that they will help you as much as they did me.
These stretches are great for yogis of all experience levels, including beginners, and for bodies of all shapes and sizes. Always listen to your body, take breaks whenever necessary, skip or modify any poses that feel unreasonable in your body, and most importantly HAVE FUN ;-)

These are very effective yoga stretches. I experienced immediate and lasting relief! Thank you 🙏🏾
if sciatica occurs from a herniated disk on lower spine (disk L1- L5), don't do these. don't bend forward that much altogether, it will rupture the disk even more. bend your knees for lifting, dont bend forward with straight legs
You have the absolute best Sciatic stretches on YouTube! I mean I've done about 8 people's including doctors and yours are the most effective! I appreciate you🙏 Doesn't hurt that you are a beautiful human😁❤
U shouldn't tell someone how to deal with their pain if u have never had it all u did was make me hurt more u don't know what u are talking about
THANK you for this GOLDEN and very much effective video! Especially that last post which is a LIFE-SAVER 🤩🤩🤩
That first position is not going to work with my sciatica
I just did these with you but was skeptical and in some pain doing them. I cannot believe this! My pain is gone! I’m seriously in shock right now. I feel so much better I could cry and wish I could hug you! Thank you David from the bottom of my heart ❤️
Oh, my. Well, I can’t get my butt to the wall and my legs won’t straighten out.
Thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you. Last stretch a bit painful but gave me instant relief
All i gotta say is, im too damn fat for this.
Wow this is a good stretching exercise, thank you so much !
Thanks for sharing this video
Thank you it helped a lot. 🙏 keep it up.
I WiSH I could even get close to these:( month 5 of extreme sciatica- there’s no way I can put my legs up on the walls like that. I wish he would give a video for those of us in more acute pain. Can’t sit on my butt for the second exercise. Stopped watching after that
And thank you!
I am actually hypermobile. I have Taylor's danlos syndrome and both of my hips, all the ligaments and tendons, have been hurting me for over 20 years. And now I have piriformis syndrome. It's hard for me to stretch that muscle because I'm so limber. But it's very very tender. What should I do?
This is the 2nd time I have had terrible sciatic pain I’m hoping with these stretches I will feel relief I will keep you posted thank you 🙏
The last one 😭 the pain but boy does this work thanks .
Wow, this is really useful!
