    ============================================
    Sciatica is irritation of the sciatic nerve. The most-common causes of sciatica that I see in my physical therapy clinic are a bulged/herniated lumbar disc, degenerative disc disease (DDD) and stenosis, and pirifomis syndrome (tightness/pain in the piriformis muscle).
    Your piriformis is a muscle that that moves your hip. It originates on the outer edge of your tailbone and inserts over onto the outside part of the hip (the greater trochanter). Your sciatic nerve exits out of your spinal column and passes beneath this muscle. If the piriformis is tight or irritated it can put stress on the sciatic nerve and cause sciatica symptoms.
    Common causes of piriformis syndrome and concomitant sciatica include sitting for long periods of time, increased pressure on the piriformis muscle (sitting on a wallet, sitting with your legs crossed), and piriformis muscle weakness.
    In order to alleviate sciatica caused by piriformis syndrome, your treatment approach must include three key elements. They are massaging this area, stretching the muscle, and strengthening the muscle. Each one of these individually can offer you some relief to a degree; however healing will be faster and more complete if you incorporate all three methods.
    MASSAGE (6:25): promotes tissue relaxation and fascial release to help the muscle move a little better. The best ways to massage the piriformis include a foam roller and/or a tennis ball.
    STRETCHING (9:25): another great way to decrease tension in the piriformis. In this video I take you through a progression of stretches to help alleviate tension in the tight piriformis.
    STRENGTHENING (13:20): oftentimes piriformis weakness can be a cause of piriformis syndrome. Contracting this muscle promotes blood flow into the area and can serve to “reset” the muscle if it’s in spasm. The best home exercises to strengthen your piriformis include clamshells and fire hydrants (quadruped external rotation).
    Piriformis syndrome is a common cause of sciatica pain. Performing the techniques demonstrated in this video can help you Please see my video above for detailed demonstration on how to alleviate your sciatica caused by piriformis syndrome.

    Dr. Jared, I cannot thank you enough for this video (among many). I have suffered from very serious hip and radiating pain down my right leg for months. My RMT thought I had some nerve problems; my chiro suggested that it was a piriformis problem, but neither provided the massage, stretches, and strengthening exercises that you so comprehensively provided in this one video! I tried all of your suggested massage, stretches and exercises just now and felt an instant relief! From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU so VERY, VERY MUCH!

      @@toneandtighten My comment is coming not only from the pain I've been experiencing, but also from not diligently understanding the advice I've received. When personal trainers and therapists give me 'advice' and 'instructions', they're often not clear enough. The expectation is I do much of the 'homework' in my own time, yet that's difficult when I'm unsure about (1) what to do, (2) how to do it, and (3) what the exercises achieve. When my body's to be manipulated, I expect clarity. So coming across sources that make sense helps push me one step closer to managing my health independently. Whether or not your exercise are effective for my body remains to be seen; however, your video was clear, logical and well structure, therefore helping me to at least better understand the pain I'm going through. Thanks again.

Lower leg is kind of on fire all the time. it feels like inner bruising nothing helped. Physiotherapy, osteopathy acupuncture and cupping nothing worked. Already doing all these stretches but still can’t lie straight or on the affected side. Totally helpless.

    Thank you so much for this video. My sciatic nerve issue started around 3/2/19. I was propping myself up with pillows to breath better at night because of my allergies. Since then my doctor helped me with the allergies. However I had back pain. I was laying flat on my back around the first of March and I sneezed. My sciatic nerve slammed me into unbelievable pain. My lower leg and foot burned to a point it made me scream. I couldn't walk for about 4 weeks. My doctor and physical therapist helped, but no one mentioned what you taught me in this video. I truly believe it was this muscle that I injured when the back pain began. Now , 7/16/19 I can walk normally with no back ,hip or butt pain. I don't limp anymore. I'm waiting for my foot and toes to finish healing. I feel I'm on my way to recovery thanks to your information. Thanks again! Very educational.

    Your videos are talking straight to me! I was diagnosed at 30 years old with congenital spinal stenosis and I've dealt with pain for 25 years since. I've never been so bad to need surgery but I've had to change my whole lifestyle and it can be depressing sometimes. My workouts dwindled down from running 5Ks and weightlifting to light walking and riding a bike. I haven't done any body work outs in years because of the repercussions I suffer in pain for weeks after. I was looking for some stenosis stretches and I came across your videos. After completing them I found your low back and core exercises and was ecstatic to find movements that do not aggravate my condition. They are so effective! My goal is to keep my back and core as strong and flexible as long as I can to avoid laminectomy. I also follow your tips on sleeping with pillows and it's tremendously helped my back and shoulder pain at night. You are an incredible DPT!

    1. Explained how we get it
    2. What it is
    3. How to reduce the pain in different moderations
    4. Took so much time & care to produce these videos with your wife.
    Definitely sharing this with others as it’s such a common pain for many. I’m subscribing & will take my time watching your other videos too.

    I just wanted to Thank You Both for this information as well as Camile's demonstrations. I have suffered from Piriformis Syndrome for years. It has only been very recently that I have educated myself to find some relief that really helps the pain. It seems the first thing the doctors want to do is surgery, I don't want the surgery due to the risk involved. I have learned that a lot of my problems came from 23 years of being a Professional Truck Driver and Certified Trainer for teaching other women to learn to drive as well. I had to retire from trucking due to the damage it has caused in my back.
    I did have to have major surgery on my back about 7 years ago, I would not recommend this type of surgery (Laminectomy Surgery). I will say that now they have a lot more Non-Evasive surgery and procedures where you don't wake up with a nine-inch scar down your back. I do have other issues that you discussed in one of your other videos as well, such as spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, bulging and herniated disc in the plural.
    You are one of the first who has actually hit the nail on the head when you said the pain can be debilitating. I have injections in my spine and now getting ready to undergo nerve ablation's again due to the nerves growing back again.
    My Question for you is this...I have heard of a procedure where they can go in Non-Evasivley and ablate the sciatic nerve under the piriformis muscle, however, I seem to be having a problem finding a doctor locally that can perform this procedure. Do you have any recommendations as to whether it would be an Orthopedic doctor or a Neurologist that would/could do the procedure? Any information would be helpful.
    Note: I have been doing the exercises that you and your wife showed in this video and surprisingly it has helped a lot more than I had expected. Day by Day, One step at a time it seems to be improving. Since I have been doing this, I haven't had the extreme spasms that cause my foot to kick outward.
    Thank You For Sharing This Information and taking the time to demonstrate the proper way to tighten and tone to help relieve the debilitating pain of sciatica!!

    Thank YOU...🙏🏾💋🥰
    I was due to start my 21 Day Challenge 2 days ago but didn't due to a combo of sciatic/piriformis/iliopsoas pain/ laziness/ fear. I'm starting with the stretches in this video & going into the Challenge today. I’m following your recommendations & just going for it!
    If you have a video on stretching the iliopsoas that can be done alone PLEASE let me know. 🙏🏾

      The best time to start is today, Ms OhSoSolo! I hope the combination of both these videos really helps you!

    Thank you so much for this video. I do have problems with my discs but this pain was different and started in my butt instead of my back. I couldn’t walk or stand up this morning and then I did the tennis ball massage. I can’t tell you how much relief it gave me. This started when I was pregnant and I was just constantly told it was sciatica and they couldn’t do anything. Thank you for explaining it well too, because now I understand it better!
