Podcasts about Sciatica

Are you experiencing mild to severe pains along the regions with nerves interconnecting with the sciatic nerve? You may be suffering from sciatica. Such pain, tingling, or irritation can extend to the lower back, hips, butts or legs, with some individuals experiencing it as far as on the feet and toes. Treating or managing sciatica entails alleviating the pain or irritation and enhancing mobility. If you are a victim of sciatica, you need not worry because some of the treatment options are easy therapies that you can do on yourself. Such tips include the following;  Chiropractic therapy This therapy involves performing several spinal manipulations to align the spinal cord. Such manipulations help detect and reduce the misalignments of the spine that may interfere with the sciatic nerve, hence relieving pain. Chiropractic therapy techniques include soft tissue therapy and posture correction, among others. Decompression therapy If you are experiencing back pain associated with health conditions such as spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, or herniated discs, there is hope for you. All you need is for the doctor to use a specialized traction table to slowly stretch your spine and create negative pressure within the discs. This allows the compressed discs to retract and relieve pressure on nearby nerves, thus resulting in pain relief and healing. An appointment with our chiropractor will get you the best back pain and sciatica remedies. Home care                             Home care therapy has become rampant in modern society. It is highly preferred because everyone can take good care of their loved ones and monitor their progress. Finding relief from sciatica at home can be effective with a combination of self-care strategies, including stretching exercises, heat and cold therapy, maintaining good posture, staying active, and mindful relaxation techniques such as meditation. Comprehensive care with movement You're already covered if you are seeking to relieve sciatica pain through comprehensive care with movement. An appointment with our chiropractor will help you get the proper guidance on the most effective strategies, such as: Stretching exercises Stretching exercises significantly impact sciatica nerve relief because of the relaxation effect of stretching your muscles. Stretches such as the hamstring and knee-to-chest stretch will bring positive results and sciatica relief.  Strengthening Exercises These exercises help by targeting muscles that support the spine and pelvis, a good example being the bridges. Low-Impact Aerobic Activities Engage in low-impact exercises such as walking, swimming, or cycling. These can improve circulation and reduce inflammation without putting too much strain on your back. Yoga and Pilates You can incorporate yoga and Pilates into your routine to improve flexibility, strength, and body awareness. These practices can be beneficial in relieving sciatica pain. Other helpful activities include posture, body mechanics, and heat and ice therapy. If symptoms persist, kindly book an appointment with Dr. Jason Jones at our Chiropractic office in Elizabeth City, NC to receive the most personalized care based on your needs.  

Dr. Elliott (Rehab Fix) is one of the world's leading experts on sciatica and back pain treatment. With over 930k followers on Instagram and a YouTube channel of over 618k subscribers, his content helps those who are frustrated by outdated advice and unnecessary treatments. He stands out in the world of chiropractic care—not only as the visionary behind the #1 online low-back program but also as the advocate who challenges the notion that you need a doctor to heal your back.  As a former competitive athlete, Grant's career was derailed by persistent back pain and ineffective treatment. Determined to find a better way, he turned his struggles into a mission, combining his medical expertise with innovative strategies to challenge the flawed “sick care” system.  Today, his program has impacted lives across the globe, demonstrating that your spine is resilient, your body is capable, and recovery is entirely within your reach. Here are some of the things we talked about in today's show:    ·      The notion that back pain requires medication and rest is false. ·      Fear of movement can lead to chronic pain and disability. ·      Gradual exposure to movement is essential for recovery. Perfect posture is not necessary; movement is more important. ·      Back pain is influenced by multiple factors, including emotional and social aspects. A holistic approach to back pain considers emotional and psychological factors. ·      Understanding the correlation between stress and physical pain is crucial. ·      Sciatica is often misunderstood as just leg pain, but it originates from the back. ·      Stretching a sensitive nerve can worsen sciatica symptoms. ·      Individualized treatment plans are essential for effective pain management. ·      There is no one-size-fits-all solution for sciatica; each case is unique. ·      Movement is vital for spinal health and pain relief. ·      Pain does not always indicate tissue damage; understanding this can change perceptions. ·      Back cracking is generally harmless and can be done if it feels good.   Brian's website: www.briankeanefitness.com Enjoying the podcast?

If you've been dealing with chronic back pain or sciatica, chances are you've been told to do yoga or stretch more- but what if I told you that's NOT the solution? In this video, I break down why stretching alone won't fix chronic back pain and what you also need to be doing to get long-term relief.The truth is, back pain is more complex than just "tight muscles." You need a strategy that focuses on strength, movement patterns, and overall body mechanics, not just temporary relief from stretching.

I get it - you've got the proof! You've had so many flare-ups that it's perfectly natural to become protective. .Unfortunately, this over-protective behavior make it MORE likely to have flare-ups down the road. This is because fear of pain changes behavior, leading to weakness, atrophy, sedentary life, more stress, and more flare-ups. .To fix pain, we need to overcome fear.

I've had days when my back felt about 20 years older than the rest of my body. Ever had that? Sciatica is what I think the doctor called it. I just called it "sorebacka." I'm grateful I haven't had a bout like that for several years, but I can tell you that when I wake up crooked, I feel like just staying in bed or in any comfortable position I can find. But I got some weird advice. Someone said, "Go for a walk when your back is hurting." Now, let me tell you this, walking is the last thing I feel like doing, but I decided to try it. I walked around our lake, and by the time I returned, the pain had basically gone away. I had to force myself to exercise, but it was exercise that actually made me feel better. Now there's a new scientific study that compared two groups of people with "sorebacka" (wait a minute, oh that's sciatica) - one that took it easy and one that exercised. The exercisers reported less pain and more mobility. Now, what you don't feel like doing when you're hurting is what will actually help you stop hurting! I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Healing Others, Healing You." Exercising to help the pain - that doesn't just work for a hurting back. It works for a hurting heart. This could be a stretch of your life that's particularly painful. You're hurting from a tragedy, a broken relationship, maybe financial struggles, or medical battles, some new wounds, or some old wounds. And just like me with an aching back, you're seeking some comfort. But just like me, you might find it, not by trying to get comfortable, but by going out and actually exercising spiritually. Here's the prescription. It's from our word for today from the Word of God in Proverbs 11:25. "A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed." So, God says something refreshing happens to your spirit when you reach out to refresh others. And that's the kind of exercise that helps a hurting heart - doing something for someone else who's in need. Is that what you feel like doing? No. When you're hurting, you feel like withdrawing from people, not connecting with them. You want to pretty much just focus on yourself. Our human nature says, "I'm hurting right now, so hey, it's all about me." But that's only going to intensify the pain or even prolong the pain. You can actually speed up your healing by doing what you don't feel like doing; getting involved with people when you feel like withdrawing from people, getting active when you feel like being inactive, charging into some ministry or helping role when you feel like retreating, looking for someone whose need you can meet instead of someone who can meet yours. The hurt you've been through will give you the sensitivity and the credentials to minister to other hurting people. What you've been through may cause you to pull back, and maybe now you're just nursing the pain. That's what I felt like doing with my aching back. But I had to put the hurting parts to work in order to get any relief. That may be exactly where you are right now. You're not going to break out of this downer until you get busy, in the Bible's words, "refreshing others." That's when you'll finally be refreshed. Jesus said, "Whoever hangs onto his life will lose it." It's the person who gives his life away that will find it. So force yourself to get out of your chair, out of your bed and look for some people who need you. As you exercise on their behalf, the healing of your own pain can finally begin.

Viruses can hide in the ganglia (a nerve cell cluster) and turn off autophagy, a state in which the body recycles damaged proteins. Here, the viruses can lie dormant until stress levels rise, which increases cortisol and weakens the immune system.Emotional stress can significantly weaken the immune system. This is why many dormant viruses come out of remission after a stressful event, such as losing a loved one.The herpes and shingles viruses are often seen after a significant stressor. These viruses need the amino acid arginine to survive. Lysine can block arginine and stop the reproduction of these viruses. You need at least 1000 to 3000 mg of lysine to block arginine. Sciatica typically stems from a disc problem. Copper deficiency is at the root of many disc problems, so it can be an excellent solution for sciatica. A copper supplement or copper cream can help reduce sciatica pain.

At 55 years old, Joey was living with 7 herniated discs and had been in chronic pain for almost 20 years. He suffered from:✅ L5-S1, L4-L5, L3-L4, L2-L3, L1-L2 (ALL 5 lumbar discs herniated!)✅ T12-L1, T11-T12 (thoracic-lumbar herniations)His pain first started in 2007, when a debilitating back spasm left him stuck on the ground, unable to move.For nearly two decades after, he dealt with severe back pain and sciatica flare-ups every 6-7 months. He tried everything to get better:❌ Epidural injections – only temporary relief❌ Physical therapy – generic exercises, no lasting change❌ Decompression therapy – expensive and ineffective❌ Inversion tables & back braces – no long-term results❌ Surgery consultations – told he'd be in and out of the hospital for lifeWith nothing working, Joey assumed this was just his reality—until he took a chance on the Whealth Limitless Program.How Whealth Limitless Changed EverythingAt first, Joey was skeptical (like most of our members) —he had already tried so much without success.But within just a few weeks, he started feeling a difference.And in a few months, he was completely pain-free for the first time in over a decade. Now, he's:✅ Back to playing golf after 14 YEARS away from the sport✅ Running his landscaping business PAIN-FREE✅ Waking up without thinking about his back pain✅ Living life without fear of flare-upsJoey is proof that you CAN heal—even with multiple herniations and decades of pain.

Our guest today is a Physical Therapist that specializes in Sciatica. Dean Volk, MPT, and owner of Sciatica Relief Now, has spent over 33 years revolutionizing sciatica treatment. After owning three successful clinics and a cash concierge practice and working with professional athletes, Volk transitioned to a virtual model in 2018, turning this side hustle into a full-time operation in 2021. Now based in Santa Monica, CA, Dean and his team of coaches provide virtual consultations and coaching to clients worldwide, helping them live their lives to the fullest. The cornerstone of Sciatica Relief Now's success is Volk's unique approach, which operates 180 degrees opposite to traditional physical therapy and chiropractic methods.

This personalized approach addresses the root causes of their pain. Dean Volk explains, “We believe that the right motion is lotion for the body. Our approach does not involve stretching or digging into the painful side. Instead, we teach our clients to view their sciatica as a wound that needs to heal. By helping them balance out their bodies and reduce compensation, we put their bodies in an optimal position to heal.” Sciatica Relief Now's 8-week programs, offered through both group and one-on-one coaching, have helped clients return to activities they once thought were impossible. From professional rowing and marathon running to everyday tasks like gardening and walking, clients are finding long-lasting relief and regaining their quality of life. One of the key differentiators of Sciatica Relief Now is its 100% virtual model. This allows clients to receive expert guidance and support from the comfort of their own homes, eliminating the need for time-consuming travel and waiting room visits. Dean Volk's team offers both group coaching and personalized one-on-one sessions, complemented by their DWY (Do With You) Online course, which empowers clients to take control of their own healing process. By focusing on common-sense solutions and teaching clients how to heal their bodies naturally, Volk and his team are making a significant impact on the lives of those suffering from sciatica.  Dean Volk's dedication to his craft and his clients is evident in his continuous efforts to refine and perfect his treatment protocols. Over the last 16 years, he has diligently worked on his approach. His commitment to education and empowerment is further demonstrated through his extensive experience before he sold his clinics in 2020. With a focus on simplicity and effectiveness, Sciatica Relief Now's methods are designed to be accessible and understandable for all clients. The virtual nature of the service also means that clients from anywhere in the world can benefit from Volk's expertise and guidance.
