    Thank you Bob and Brad. 4 years ago, I stuffered from sciatic pain and couldn't afford to be seen by a doctor. I looked up your videos and it saved me from so much pain. The pain returned one more time because of restrictive clothing, but I followed your advice and it's gone. I often to some of the stretches you have shown and it gives me relief. I'm so grateful for your service to people like me who can't have health services easily.

  • @renel7303
    @renel7303 Рік тому +5

    The best I've found is flat on my back, arms down at each side, palms down, fingers straight. Not too many pillows, gentle ramp, starting just above my shoulder blades. That lowest pillow is thin. The secret is a down feather pillow, very fluffy, that I smoosh around my head and under my neck, adjusting for that days aches. It stabilizes my head and neck. Nothing gets cramped or impinged in any way. I already know I'm going to wake up in a world of hurt from inflammatory arthritis most days. I don't need to add to it with poor body mechanics. Keep shifting and trying new ways until you find what suits your body the best. Also know that as your body changes, ages, and your weight changes you'll need to keep fine tuning for the greatest comfort and best sleep.

  • @healthlifting1533
    @healthlifting1533 Рік тому

    in my opinion the top leg resting over the under leg during a side sleep is healthy and natural because it mimics our natural gait patterns of having the front foot come into the center line infront of us and our back foot moves behind us with the heel turning outwards. so why would a position our natural gait encounters be a harmful sleep position? Also the spine doesnt have to be straight its meant to move in a spiral just like all of our joints, so whats wrong with having it bent one way for half your sleep and then rolling over to the other side for the other half of your sleep? seems like natural fascia release to me.

      Ear plugs my friend. Try different types to see what is comfy for you. Also look into a white noise machine or app. I think there are apps now. Some people say a small fan running can mask sound. As a last resort for truly horrible neighbors I call the police non emergency line. Sometimes they send community service officers, other times the guys with the guns. We've had some doozies behind us. Good luck.

    stop fear mongering people. most good rehab specialist I know say to just sleep however you want, and they are right, because : a) you will change your sleep position either way, so just start with the most comfortable way, because b), starting in an uncomfortable position can lead to sleep-deprivation which c) can lead to lower pain - tolerance and many other problems, directly connected to pain. Pain in the morning can have many reasons and pain does not mean damage.

    Yeah somebody suggested that to sleep on my stomach and it doesn't feel very good on my lower back it actually is quite very very very painful. I have no idea why they consider stretching and this and that to relieve the pain it does not it actually increases my lower pain back pain to the point where it kind of feels like it's throwing out my back. The pain is so unbearable that it makes me want to throw up. And I've been to a chiropractor and they literally told me I need to go to a doctor and when I say what is going on it makes no sense I've already done Physical Therapy I've already done all of that I don't know what they're getting their information from I was hardly ever put on medications and all this Physical Therapy stuff that they whatever whoever suggests it's only makes it worse to the point where it actually will paralyze me at time's. It's all of that that's it's literally feels like bone on bone I cannot be overly extremely active I don't know how much overly for I can do stretching and physical therapy to where it doesn't do any help what do I do just keep enduring it and ball my eyes out the pain shoots to my right hip
