L2:3 Yoga Flow with Tips for Sciatica Peppered Throughout
Please play along with a flow that offers tips for sciatic discomfort from either of the common sources (the nerve’s relation to the piriformis muscle or an impinged nerve / herniated disc)
If your in the throws of sciatica from an impingement, some of this might be too intense. You might want to jump to 1:08.31 for a really gentle, helpful exercise using two blocks and a blanket. Also, try a *chiropractor and massage therapist combo*.
The practice tries to offer many ways to use the body as a massage tool to coax an ouchy disc free. There is also plenty of hip opening, some inversions, and some backbends. While yoga practices usually balance both sides, your work might be asymmetric if you’re dealing with a very sensitive sciatic nerve on one side.
