❤Every single time I have trouble with something, whether it be neck, shoulder back pain etc… I remind myself to go to Bob and Brad on UA-cam and I’m never disappointed. I’ve even bought your handheld massage machine and other equipment and always feel better. Thank you so much for what you do. Just the fact that you do these videos for free and don’t spend an hour doing infomercials only to sell a product and not give any tips that actually help, shows that you are both wonderful people!!❤
My father is a cancer/transplant patient with a long medical history and extremely crippling back pain from years of medication and treatment. You have no idea how much your videos have helped me help him!!! God bless you two!
Dear BOB/BRAD, I am 87 and you are helping me so much. Your help is not curing me, but it is helping and relieving my various pains so much. I am watching you guys almost every day.
INSTANT FREAKING RELIEF...God bless you guys. My husband managed to help me down to the floor on my stomach... I was able to go up on my elbows. It took about 45 seconds of gently holding myself up, but all of a sudden the area unclenched. I stayed there for as long as my arms could hold me up and I was able to stand up totally unassisted at the end. As the day has progressed I have got down on the floor any time I felt that tightening in my siatic nerve area. Thank you, this has given me peace from the pain. I am going to keep doing all the other things you have suggested as I get better. I love you guys.
Just had that happened to me. Took a 500 Tylenol. Wish I had known about these exercises then . Excruciating pain from buttocks to ankles!! So glad. Found this site . Thank you, Thankyou.
Hi Bob and Brad. Thanks for sharing these "pearls" of knowledge. I applied your McKenzie method which I saw in your other videos and my pain centralized to the central lower back beltline. In about a minute the numbness on my left buttocks leg and lower leg started to subside. I spent a whole week in a hospital, the pain meds helped a bit but the doctors weren't able to provide much needed relief. It was when I read in a fist aid article that applying ice on the swelling part would have releived the pain that I felt my piriformis muscle area loosened up. I spent money being confined in a hospital but checked out with the pain still there albeit reduced to certain degree coupled with light headedness due to pain meds and lost work hours. Now I am finding your tests and therapy methods working well for me. I feel that given time i may be going back to work better. I arramged foe an MRI and would be able to cinfirm if I also have a herniated disc. I hope not. May God richly bless both of you and your loved ones. Thank you.
You guys just made my life SO MUCH BETTER. I saw many videos saying that lying on your stomach is the worst for sciatica since it "pinches" the nerves. I've been constantly suffering big time from both legs for weeks now, can't even make two steps without a cane, and my lower back was a mess (I suspected a bulging disc). From the waist down to my feet, I was just in horrible pain. So I decided to give your advices a chance. Tried the cat cow stretching exercises and lay down on my stomach as often as I could. After a week or so, most of the sharp and really painful pain was gone. The pain in my legs is just a dull hum now, and my lower back is still painful but nothing compared to the past weeks of hell. So yeah. Thank you. Really.
About 10 days ago I did something innocuous that set off a bad sciatica attack, and while I've had back problems most of my life (I'm 66), this was by far the worst. I've watched about a dozen videos and have been doing all the exercises but nothing seemed to have worked. What I discovered was that the more active I was, either working out or just moving around, the more normal I felt. I even painted a bathroom and my back felt completely normal the whole time. However , once I tried to go to sleep, the pain became excruciating even with naproxen , so that I have only been getting about 4 hours sleep a night. Last night I realized that every morning the pain would quickly subside after drinking my coffee so last night at around midnight, I brewed myself a cup and low and behold, the pain subsided, not completely, but enough to get some sleep. This morning I took half a No Doze along with naproxen with the same results, no pain all day. Don't know if others will see the same benefits but it's certainly worth a try. Good luck!
For anyone having sciatic problems ill just put my experience here and what i THINK fixed it for me, i dont think its an exact science. I had this pain for about a full year and it stopped me from running for 6 full months because itd spark back up every time i ran, i tried stretching, resting, changing my technique. None of that worked, it has finally come right and i BELIEVE it's because i started doing 15 squats every morning which strengthened my leg. Anyway good luck out there
It didn’t strengthen your leg, it strengthened your back! 🙌🏼 Glad it worked for you! For me, I will be happy when I can get out of bed without any pain!! 😩😭
@@Hashslingingslasher- id also like it know if you had some leg numbness or tingling when doing the morning squats? And did it flare up that sciatic/ buttock area pain while doing it? Or immediate relief
Thank Bob and Brad for posting these videos to help us w injury . I had old disc injuries that just started again in the form of tingling and vibrating my whole legs both of the every all day and all night. I thought after 1 1/2 I loose my mind it was constant. Although I went to PT very soon but I also tried McKenzy method that you showed and I think it help also I stopped sitting while dinner or watching TV I am very athletic and I am 64 the most important thing is not to loose hope . Just keep on going and believe that you get better I pray to not loose hope . For all that suffering please stick to it things will get better.
I’m missing a disk L4/L5 and have this problem - when my thigh tightens up it’s hard to walk but doing standing stretches and riding a recumbent bike work miracles. Physical therapists rock!
I have to listen to you guys every night at bedtime, helps me relax. I had periformis syndrome causing sciatica and worked the trigger points and it went away.
For some reason my Glutes get knots (trigger points). I have to massage it. It took me 4 days to get back to normal. It will cause my Sciatic Nerve to transfer pain down my leg. Then I remembered Bob and Brad's exercise of laying on my back bending my legs and stretching. It helps a lot Bob and Brad. I never knew until you two showed me on your video. Thank you Bob and Brad. I will try option number 2 on my back, and 3 the traction. I have been hanging from these metal banisters at a loading dock I frequent. I have a slipt disc on my R-5. It hasn't gone out for a long time like 2 or 3 years. I've thrown it out many a time getting out of a Shower! I usually use traction to get it back into place either by me hanging or actually going to my Chiropractor and getting on the Traction Machine
I broke my back four years ago and have been in pain ever since. I have a bulging disc causing intense nerve pain down my left leg, along with stenosis, arthritis, and, of course, degenerative discs. You name it… but the nerve pain is the absolute worst!
This video helped me so much mentally. I re-herniated my L5-S1 in June (originally a weight lifting injury in 2017) and am on my 3rd flare up since June. I had a lumbar prednisone shot on Wednesday and had relief for 3 days before the pain returned. I want to use your advice in this video to make everything in my life conducive to healing and putting this painful ordeal behind me!!! Thanks for all you do, Bob & Brad! 💙💚
Wish you speedy recovery, sir. Your physiotherophy for rotatorcuff tear in my right shoulder was quite excellent, and fast recovering. I can't forget your ever smiling face, and encourage ment. Thank you sir. Again wish you a speedy recovery sir.
I love these guys. It's like Burt and Ernie. I have to say that the number of times I have referred people to their site by singing their song (and then saying 'in their opinion of course) is immense. But they solved my crippling spine pain so much that I still enjoy doing the exercises just for a good stretch. Besides they are crazy fun to watch. I wonder how they met?
Bob and Brad thank you for all the advice. Pt is so expensive and it's takes week to get an appointment. Thank goodness I found you two! I have been helped today. Thank you!
Watching again I was pleased to hear Brad say stomach rather than the often used “tummy”. I hate that word being used to adults - tummy is for toddlers and teddy bears!
I’ve been having sciatica pain for a couple weeks. it started after sitting on a plane for 3 hours, then riding in a boat 5 hours and then a few days later back on the plane which I was in pain the whole flight. I am not having any pain in my back. I’m having severe pain in the back of my calf mostly with a little pain behind my thigh. I’m going to try some of your exercise and hopefully get some relief. I’ve been taking ibuprofen and applying heat and cold throughout the day. Hope these exercise give me some relief. Thank you for the great videos!!
I am learning: I recently joined the bad back club. Yep...a few too many shovel fulls, leaning on the bleachers the wrong way, trying to get dressed...bam! Yep...most pain I have felt. Whole new respect to those who suffer & great appreciation to the helpers.
The two lovely messiahs of our time… I’ve been with you for quite a few years and they’ve certainly made me fitter and cheerful all the way. In fact kudos fall short when I think of expressing my gratitude 🌈🙏🙏🌈
Can you make a video on how we can self massage our lower back and back of the leg? I find my leg hurting and I’m wondering what’s the best massage to help relieve leg pain in the muscle
I wanted to mention the Feet Up stool to y'all. Your videos have helped me treat my sciatica, but this stool does it too, super fast with longer lasting effects, at least for me. Y'all should check it out. I bought it at the beginning of the pandemic and I have gotten the same results several times. Problem is, the effects are SO long lasting that when I actually DO have a flare up I have completely forgotten about it. Happened again this week, after at least a couple weeks of suffering. Five minutes of inversion and leg poses, a minute or 2 stretching with it while on my feet and it's completely gone! I think it may be magic, but I'd love to hear what y'all have to say about it.
I'm 75 and this is the sort of pain I have. It really works. Actually roll over on my stomach and the pain stops. I'm trying to do several times a day. Also walking but it's 95. I'm too short to do traction, and don't have the hand holds (I think that would work). I can't do it anywhere but on my rather squishy bed (probably needs a new mattress), but still helping. Head position is tricky though....
Thank you for your videos. The sciatic hit again the week of Christmas. I seriously had considered cancelling our family dinner because it hurts so much the exercises. Helped
Was told by my doctor today the cause of my pain was because the bottom three vertebrate in my back have moderate to severe Rheumatoid arthritis that are causing a nerve impingement. Hope this helps
PSA: Just because it feels better when you lay on your stomach does NOT mean you should become a stomach-sleeper; do NOT sleep on your stomach, that's terrible for your back!
So I have a question. I have a herniated L4-L5 and L5-S1, causing pain shooting through my right ankle, but also numbness in my left thigh. Should I just consider both sides as the painful side?
So what does it mean if it doesn’t leave the leg? It’s left my calf but from knee and up still hurts but I feel more pain in my tailbone and lumbar midback
I have sciatic pain that I’ve been working on getting to feel better for 6 months. I also have nerve pain that runs into my abdomen (and testicle). Yikes!! Bob and Brad any suggestions for me to alleviate the groin pain? Plz plz help
When you guys talk about ages being affected being 55 years old +, and here I am at 30 with multiple disc protrusions and sciatica feeling older than my age🤭🤭
I'm 30 as well. I have Multiple Sclerosis and haven't had sciatica pain in over 5 years but it's recently come back with worse symptoms than ever before
Towards the end, they talk about a back support, about using a rolled up jacket or towel for support. I've also found that my padded wallet makes a great emergency support when I'm in the car.
Hi Bob and Brad, quick question, just tried the side bend in the lying down position. How come it feels much more relieving to bend the leg towards the the side opposite to the leg pain?
I have a problem with leg cramping in bed, at night where my whole leg goes numb. It hurts like Murder and when I try to get out of bed, I fall on the floor because my leg feels like rubber I am 78 years old.
Hi, I am 50 years old, from last two years I started a new job where I have to 12 hours standing so to much pain in my leg muscles and left heel plz advise me thanks
No matter what I do, the pain on my right thigh will NOT go away. I can’t sleep, I can’t stand or walk or sit. It’s constantly in pain and I cannot relieve it. They’ve given me anti inflammatory and pain meds - 4 different ones - and it still hurts. I don’t what to do. I tried everything in these videos and it just makes it worse. The only thing that’s helped me is standing up it goes away on the right thigh. But then soon after it starts hurting on the left side and if I turn my head at all or stand straight it shoots pain down both sides of my legs. I don’t know what to do I just want to sleep I need help.
Is there a video (or a description) of how to get on and off the floor safely without twisting and injuring myself more? I do not have a flat surface to do the proper stretches, so I have to get on the floor. Currently my left leg is worse (and muscles are tighter) than my right leg.
Ok, Mine was going from my back to my hip to the bottom of my leg. But now after several weeks of PT, now the pain is concentrated on the lower back. What should I tell my PT, Does this changes the exercises I have to do?
"Some of our astute followers have noticed me slurring my words. I am not drunk but working with Brad it would be justifiable. I had 6 infected cysts removed from my mouth (noncancerous) and I have residual scar tissue and numbness. I will try to do better. Thanks Bob."
That's a relief, I was worrying about you!

Thank you! I was considering cutting the leg off before this. It couldn’t hurt any more. But instant relief! Even if it is short lived.
So I have a question. I have a herniated L4-L5 and L5-S1, causing pain shooting through my right ankle, but also numbness in my left thigh. Should I just consider both sides as the painful side?
For decompression at home I use my Maytag top loader washing machine. Palms out and push up. Really works for me.
So what does it mean if it doesn’t leave the leg?
It’s left my calf but from knee and up still hurts but I feel more pain in my tailbone and lumbar midback
I have sciatic pain that I’ve been working on getting to feel better for 6 months. I also have nerve pain that runs into my abdomen (and testicle). Yikes!! Bob and Brad any suggestions for me to alleviate the groin pain? Plz plz help

Hi, I am 50 years old, from last two years I started a new job where I have to 12 hours standing so to much pain in my leg muscles and left heel plz advise me thanks
So you should put your legs to the side that hurts? It seems going the opposite side would give more stretch!!
Is “Re-Jiggers” a medical term?
What is stenosis?
No matter what I do, the pain on my right thigh will NOT go away. I can’t sleep, I can’t stand or walk or sit. It’s constantly in pain and I cannot relieve it. They’ve given me anti inflammatory and pain meds - 4 different ones - and it still hurts.
I don’t what to do. I tried everything in these videos and it just makes it worse. The only thing that’s helped me is standing up it goes away on the right thigh. But then soon after it starts hurting on the left side and if I turn my head at all or stand straight it shoots pain down both sides of my legs. I don’t know what to do I just want to sleep I need help.
Do all Bob and Brad's exercises, one will work, or maybe more than one. Good luck!
Is there a video (or a description) of how to get on and off the floor safely without twisting and injuring myself more? I do not have a flat surface to do the proper stretches, so I have to get on the floor. Currently my left leg is worse (and muscles are tighter) than my right leg.
You guys are the bees knees 👍🏻
Is using a cross trainer elliptical machine good or bad for sciatica? thanks

I had hip surgery a Year ago, Yet I am sufering from continuous upper lég pain?
Ok, Mine was going from my back to my hip to the bottom of my leg. But now after several weeks of PT, now the pain is concentrated on the lower back. What should I tell my PT, Does this changes the exercises I have to do?
