Many thanks for this video release to help improve our live quality from sciatica. I watched your and immediately I started to practice and can instantly see some improvement. 😂🎉
This video is gold. I've told so many people about nerve flossing, because it dramatically improved my quality of life. I injured myself weight lifting and dealt with back pain for nearly 2 years! I had to self diagnose myself with sciatica because, as an overweight individual, the doctors I saw kept telling me my back pain was due to my weight, which was humiliating, demoralizing, and worst of all completely unhelpful. Their advice was to take anti-inflammatories and increase my core strength, etc. My pain was to the point that I would involuntarily yelp out just sitting down, and basic things like tying my shoes and shaving my legs were impossible so exercising was a sick joke. Eventually I gave up seeking help, and I couldn't work out which was filling me with even more guilt because I thought I deserved to be in pain because I couldn't get the weight off. Luckily things came across my attention that taught me about sciatic pain, but everything always said there's no cure without surgery, only stretches that may relieve pain for less severe injuries. Some stretches felt nice, others were unbearable, but nothing, nothing brought me above 50% NERVE FLOSSING CHANGED EVERYTHING. In less than a week I got my full range of motion back, and now a year later I've only had 1 flare up after poorly lifting a very heavy box above my head and over twisting (much like my original injury). I dug this video back up and did the flossing and got back to feeling human, again in less than a week. I will treasure this technique forever because it gave me my dignity back, and taught me the WHY and HOW which is invaluable. So, so grateful! I hope that others will find this same relief when nothing else has worked for them!
How many reps and how often did you do the flossing? Im thinking this may be what I need. I have consistent pain my glute and often pain around my knee and burning kind of sensation in my calf.
Apart from the fact that I second what you say about docs and that o got to do the same path you followed, which is self diagnosing and exercising myself out of pain because docs would go with meds and blamed absolutely wrong things, I want to say this : sharing your experience and giving your feedback about this is as golden as this video itself. You don't even realize how precious is to track down comment of people who treated themselves and found out how to fix their problems and share their experience with others. Thank god for you today
@@antonioj.castaneda7377 please please PLEASE share your experience too here in this comment once you tried yourself what he describes. Don't forget to do it it's the most precious thing for poor people who come here
A year of blood tests, urine tests, x-rays, ultrasounds, and MRIs, and then I watch this video and find a way to relieve my pain for the first time. This is incredible. I'm saving up now to go to the US to see you in-person and fix several other problems, that I've spent years figuring out and haven't been able to fix.
I wanted to thank you SO MUCH! I did the nerve flossing yesterday for 20 reps and my pain was gone in 30 minutes. No joke! I'd been suffering from sciatica for maybe 2 weeks and it was gone in 30 minutes. I can't believe how fast it worked! Thanks so much!!!
I haven't tried it yet, but I wanted to thank you for clearly stating how many reps to do and how long to do them for in a manner you can clearly understand. I've watch many of these videos because I in pain as we speak, and you're the first that takes time to tell the listener sets and hold time.
Thank you for this video. I’m a massage therapist and I work on a LOT of clients that struggle with this issue. I myself am currently going through a flare up (do to over working out) so it’s nice to see that I’m applying the correct principles and learning new principles to help myself and my clients with this issue. Thank you again.
When I had sciatica, this exercise literally saved me. I used to get pain radiating down my leg when i was just sitting at a desk or driving. This exercise stopped 90% of the pain.
If this works I’m sending this to my older brother. He has sciatica and he described his pain as pain that radiates down his leg. I thought it was permanent.
@@SquatUniversity awesome thank you. I've been using chiropractor and massages but anything I can do from home will be a huge help. Looking forward to them.
I broke down and got the surgery a few years ago. I couldn’t take it anymore. I was in and out. Walked out the hospital with zero pain. God is good. Haven’t had back pain since. I did every exercise in the book. Don’t be afraid to research surgery:)
13 life-changing minutes!!! Thank you SO MUCH! I have been in pain, hobbling around, for three weeks. So debilitating. Love the way you explain things as well. I’m of for a gentle run - first one in months!
I just got mine like 2 weeks ago, I'm trying to get rid of this pain quick. I've already went to the chiropractor, (it helped) now I'm doing these stretches and exercises
Microdiscectomy is the only thing that fixed mine. I tried everything else known to man. I feel for everyone going through it it's probably the worst pain I've ever had. Thanks to the surgery my life is back to normal and it has been over 2 years
Man I had surgery in june and have been recovering since with not as bad pain from before the op but had a MRI done and its re bulged somehow now i dont know what to do
You don't know how grateful I am for the knowledge you share on your channel. My doctor asked me to have a scan last week for the excruciating pain I was having in my lower back & right buttocks. Result: nothing to report on the scan and I was told to "rest and continue the painkillers". Yesterday I came across this video as the pain was slowly spreading down the back of my right leg. That's when I assumed it was the sciatic nerve. The exercises I did reduced my pain by 70%. This morning I again did the exercises that suited my situation. I still have a little discomfort but I know how to tackle my problem. Thank you very much, God bless you!
Thank you Aaron. I'm 22 and just realized I have some sort of sciatica. You helped me realize where my pain is coming from (paraformis) and that I was hurting myself by stretching wrong! You gave me the first little bit of hope that I'll be able to kitesurf and snowboard again
THE MOST IMPORTANT lesson on UNDERSTANDING - DIAGNOSING - & ALLEVIATING. Sciatica pain. I was on Pregabalin x3 @150mg /day until I accidentally discovered this video. I had seen a GP, Physio T. and an Acupuncturist who NEVER attempted the SYSTEMATIC processes BEFORE a attempting cure.. Thanks a million, I would have been pain free much sooner. David
Been having sciatic pain for about 6 weeks now from intense training... it would come and go but always be there preventing me from going 100%. After performing some exercises.. the pain is already relieving.. Thank you Dr Eric!
Thank you so much for this! I am able to pay attention and recognize the cause of my pain, by learning with your videos and having a holistic perspective. What makes me sad is the number of times that I go to physiotherapy and trust certain professionals that make a massage, tell me to do core stability exercises, and send me away... We need more dedicated professionals like you!!! Thank you again
Been having problems for a long time with my sciatica and my RLS squat U has helped me out so much in all aspects of my life I thank you from the bottom of my heart
@@SquatUniversity Need your help. My nerve pain has been back of hamstrings inner thigh down to my foot not the usual outer sciatica pain. Can that still be piniformis? Or would that be herniated disk. Really could use your advice
This changed everything! I was stretching when I should have been shortening! A few sets of clamshells and my pain subsided long enough to get some sleep. I will be doing these exercises from now on to ensure I can live pain free, thank you!
This video has proved that my sciatica is originating from my low back. When I bend back under tension the pain radiates through my hip and leg along the nerve. I’ve been in PT for 5 weeks and seen an Ortho and nobody has figured this out!
Thank you doc, I think you are saving my life with these videos! Found lots of stuff that helped me through my weightlifting passion. I think with help from you I'll be able to do weightlifting for a longer period of time. Forever grateful.
had to do a dig job today and my back pain was crazy afterwards. Had the same low back pain for a month and some change. Did the stool test, isolated the trigger, did the stretch back pain took a small decrease. It is going to be a process but I feel I'm on the right track. Thank you
Is there a specific volume , Intensity and frequency to these exercises or should I focus on listening to my body ? I did nerve flossing and It alleviated my pain by a significant amount . This channel is gold and your explanations are bright and clear.
I wish I lived local to Squat University to get some treatment for my hip/ham/adductor compound combo that refuses to settle down... however, until I can afford to relocate down the street, these videos are PURE GOLD 💰
This looks like my next step. Thank you for sharing this direct, easy to understand, step by step actions to possibly regain the mobility I'm used to. Be back in a month or so with the results. 🙏
I ve injured myself doing squats with weight and suddenly I felt a pain in my lowback and now that pain went to my butt, could It be sciatica?these are the best movements to my problem?😅I LOVE your Channel you are an expert🎉
I love your content, you not only go into how to fix it, but how to determine what's causing it. You video was the only one that went to into causes other than lower back.
Thank you so much for your video! I've been dealing with sciatica for a month and I've heard so many mixed messages. Thank you for the chair and piriformis tests and the exercises, very helpful!
Nooooo - I was hoping my sciatic pain was coming from piriformis. But 100% from lower back 😭 Thank you so much for your channel and your work in general 🙏
I truly love the depth of knowledge you have and the way you explain diagnosing and treating the problem, thank you! I was wondering what if the pain is not shooting down the leg but mostly up the back (around the spine) and it is one sided? Would that also be considered sciatica?
I want to thank you for an exceptional training video! I tend to read through the comments first before watching videos. The comments were praising this video so much that I was intrigued to actually take notes while watching it. You explained every part so well. I will be involving my wife and the two of us will attempt to let this be part of our daily routines. I give you 2 thumbs up, thank you again.
By far it's the most detailed video I've ever seen. There are many causes in sciatica and those clickbait titles videos always claim that their stretches will fit any kind of sciatica but not working on my case sometimes, so I was really impressed by your video when you mentioned piriformis syndrome can be long or short and they will need different treatment, appreciate that
I really enjoy walking usually walk 5k but my Sciatica has become a bit problematic lately 🤞here’s hoping your technique works for me Thank you for posting this.
Been dealing with sciatica for 8 months now and nothing is working still. Done 5 months of chiro been back to this video 20+ times now I'm trying for dry needling. Hope to god it works because my lifts are suffering so badly
My mom just finish have l4 l5 s1 laser fusion surgery due to years of sciatica. She’s now rehabbing from home after completing 4 weeks of pt. A long rehab journey ahead
Just feeling relief after 6 months from spinal stenosis and a severe herniated disc. Had crazy sciatica. Only way to fix this is mobility. And when I say mobility i mean stretching every single day trying to become as flexible as possible. I believe stretching your entire lower body is the only way to fix it. Especially your piriformis and hips. Stretch those two out every day and you will get relief i promise.
My McGill Master Clinician ran be through these BS tests and after over a year of seeing him was unable to provide me the cause of my pain or get me pain free. But he did make thousands of dollars off my pain and suffering which is pretty cool.
Good stuff I’ve been dealing with my sciatica for few weeks now. Just recently I randomly decided to sumo deadlift. I hit a few reps and it felt great almost instantly. Gained a lil more of my flexibility back but when I try to brace my core for conventional deadlifts there’s a great deal of pain that kinda feels good. Lol don’t know where I’m going with my story. I’m a lil bit medicated. But let’s agree sciatica pain sucks
Thank you so much for the exercises! And for also showing the way to find out what is the reason for the pain ♥️ I could easily perform the leg rotation angle test alone with a resistance band or some cloth and it really helped to determine the reason for the pain. thanks again!
I can second everyone who says this video is gold. You explain like a real pro teacher and this kind of knowledge helps a broad range of people in the correct way. My gf is dealing with this and I've Found already in other videos these kind of advices but this video packs almost everything and even more detail and through full explanations
I deal with sciatica off and on depending on training load after it was a major problem during my second pregnancy. I went a long time without issues but it’s been flaring up for a few weeks now. I’ll be saving and re-watching this! Can’t wait to try flossing and see if it helps 😁
Ive had this bullshit for 12 years, ive gone to chiropractors and osteopaths. No big changes. Ive found stretching alleviates the pain a little, but it always comes back. Will give this a shot and update later. Thank you for providing this for free
@zsurvivalist7996 Nope, I don't mean to say it won't work for you, give it a shot once or twice a day for a few days when it flares up. A quick conversation with a physiotherapist and Google search had led me to believe there isn't aa"standard" fix for sciatica. Just figure out what works and doesn't for you. Good luck

@Jose Rodriguez Not sure if that one is available anymore, it was a hookup from an older company that doesn't make it anymore.
Also is it a symptom that my left leg doesn’t open fully when I lay down and lift it up. Also when i sit and lay my leg up my legs are not fully open.
Where did you get that bench
Nono clue by

I can't believe how many docs are useless. Mine just throws medication at me. Never discusses exercise, diet, etc.
How many reps and how often did you do the flossing? Im thinking this may be what I need. I have consistent pain my glute and often pain around my knee and burning kind of sensation in my calf.
Thank you for sharing, gives me hope! My main doctor was no help either, only recommended pain medication and injections.

This is timely as I am dealing with sciatica right now. Thank you.
Glad to help!
NERVE FLOSSING!!! this is the key and gem... faced the pain since years and now getting better. Really thankful that you share this.
Was your sciatic pain from a bulged disc though?
You are a very good man, you listen to people's problems and address their issues. Thank you
This is unbelievable 😳 my sciatica is gone ❤️ thanks a lot sir 🤗

Did they work for you?
Actually the pirifurmis stretch for a little bit, I can't put pressure, and what helps some is the tens unit and heat pad. Thanks for asking 🙏, 👍
Ive been dealing with sciatic pains (yes plural bc they have been different types of pains) for about 2 months. Im so glad I found this vid
Hey how r u now!?
You good bud?
By far the best and most accurate physio diagnosis I have seen.
Can both short and long piriformis syndrome exercises be done together ?
He said you need to figure out what is the case because if you strech for long piriform or "stregthening the short" you will be make it worse.
That clam shell move hit the spot man. These videos are life saver.
This video has proved that my sciatica is originating from my low back. When I bend back under tension the pain radiates through my hip and leg along the nerve. I’ve been in PT for 5 weeks and seen an Ortho and nobody has figured this out!

Oh you have helped me so much to determine where the pain comes from. I am doing your exercises now, and hope for relief. Thank you so much again
Thank you for the fantastic explanation of different symptoms of sciatic pain. Much appreciated. I certainly have long piriformis sciatica.

This looks like my next step. Thank you for sharing this direct, easy to understand, step by step actions to possibly regain the mobility I'm used to. Be back in a month or so with the results. 🙏
Would these techniques be useful for an elderly person or would different intervention be needed

Thank you Squat University, I was about to book in and pay some physio $150 to tell me the same things but over 4 more sessions.
Much appreciated.
This is so useful. Thanks a lot for sharing. Helped relieve my piriformis pain.
This makes more sense to me as some pro videos show putting the head down when you lift leg up .
Excellent educational video about sciatica, really enjoyed it❤. Thanks.
You're a legend!!!!! thank you!!!!! will incorporate this therapy, pyriformis been on and off, and its challenging!
The contents of your channel are " Gold Standard."

Wow, that's really informative. Thank you.
Thank you so much because I have both lower back and down my legs. It's been hell, but I'm hoping your exercises help me.
Thank you for all this information, blessings…
This is very very helpful!! Thanks a lot!!
Been dealing with sciatica for 8 months now and nothing is working still. Done 5 months of chiro been back to this video 20+ times now I'm trying for dry needling. Hope to god it works because my lifts are suffering so badly
Excellent explanation of lower back pain…!
this is so great! thank you for all you do
Your videos are SO HELPFUL!!!
My mom just finish have l4 l5 s1 laser fusion surgery due to years of sciatica. She’s now rehabbing from home after completing 4 weeks of pt. A long rehab journey ahead
Excellent information. Thank you🙏🙏
Just feeling relief after 6 months from spinal stenosis and a severe herniated disc. Had crazy sciatica. Only way to fix this is mobility. And when I say mobility i mean stretching every single day trying to become as flexible as possible. I believe stretching your entire lower body is the only way to fix it. Especially your piriformis and hips. Stretch those two out every day and you will get relief i promise.
Thanks for the great info!!! Assuming it’s probably not a good idea to squat while dealing with this pain!
Man, you know so much! Thanks for showing us
My McGill Master Clinician ran be through these BS tests and after over a year of seeing him was unable to provide me the cause of my pain or get me pain free. But he did make thousands of dollars off my pain and suffering which is pretty cool.
Fabulous help
Thank you so much ...I’ve had sciatic pain fro five weeks now and this flossing the nerve seems to be helping
Hey how r u now did you recover
Good stuff
I’ve been dealing with my sciatica for few weeks now. Just recently I randomly decided to sumo deadlift. I hit a few reps and it felt great almost instantly. Gained a lil more of my flexibility back but when I try to brace my core for conventional deadlifts there’s a great deal of pain that kinda feels good. Lol don’t know where I’m going with my story. I’m a lil bit medicated. But let’s agree sciatica pain sucks
Hey how r u now
It would be really great if you have any tips on peripheral neuropathy Thanks
Really good content ! First person to isolate different areas and different stretches...!!
Das beste Video nach lange Suche . Vielen Dank 👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much for the exercises!
And for also showing the way to find out what is the reason for the pain ♥️
I could easily perform the leg rotation angle test alone with a resistance band or some cloth and it really helped to determine the reason for the pain.
thanks again!
You are the Best!
I can second everyone who says this video is gold. You explain like a real pro teacher and this kind of knowledge helps a broad range of people in the correct way. My gf is dealing with this and I've Found already in other videos these kind of advices but this video packs almost everything and even more detail and through full explanations
This is a very clear explanation n methods, thanks
I deal with sciatica off and on depending on training load after it was a major problem during my second pregnancy. I went a long time without issues but it’s been flaring up for a few weeks now. I’ll be saving and re-watching this! Can’t wait to try flossing and see if it helps 😁
Ive had this bullshit for 12 years, ive gone to chiropractors and osteopaths. No big changes. Ive found stretching alleviates the pain a little, but it always comes back. Will give this a shot and update later. Thank you for providing this for free
Any luck?
@zsurvivalist7996
Nope, I don't mean to say it won't work for you, give it a shot once or twice a day for a few days when it flares up. A quick conversation with a physiotherapist and Google search had led me to believe there isn't aa"standard" fix for sciatica. Just figure out what works and doesn't for you. Good luck
