For 7 years I’ve been in so much pain…I really thought my hip was going to break. I’ve tried everything…recently I had another MRI…not your hip, it’s your sciatica. A friend recommended your videos….I watched a few and started doing some stretches…something finally became un pinched! I feel 1000% better! If it starts coming on I immediately stop and do a few stretches and it goes away. I’ve got a new lease on life…Thankyou!!!!
I watch from Adelaide australia and bob and brad over the years healed heaps of my body hurts I pray to the lord for bob you blokes spread love and make me roar with laughter men good men thanks
I was just diagnosed with sciatica after a visit to the ER, thinking the pain was from an infection in my leg. I've watched several of your vids on sciatica and have started doing some of the exercises. They do help relieve the pain. Thank you so much for all you do for us, Bob, Brad and Mike!! God Bless you all!!

These wrk.. I have it so bad I get complete numbness face, arms, every where do I have it on both sides sides of my spine.. Only way is to keep doing it,, if u want relief you best put walking into your every day thing... Even if u can't feel a leg or two like me..
Im currently in Japan training martial arts for the first time in 5 years and these exercises have been an absolute life saver. Really eased the lower back pain and leg numbness. Thank you so much.
This is exactly what I need. I’m soon to be 68 in August and I walk leaning forward and super stiff from the waist down. I would like to see a video on choosing walking shoes for arthritic conditions, especially for women and those of us with extra pounds. I’ve been wearing flats for a while without much cushion and almost needed a mobile chair because I didn’t realize the pounding my joints were taking from improper shoes. It was very difficult for me to walk. Thank you ❤🙏🏾.
I love your videos. They are so helpful. I have been suffering off and on for years with sciatica problems. Epidurals work but can be limited and are not my first choice. Now I have a way to prevent the problem and I am so glad. Thank you.
Great advice Brad and Mike! I love that this channel is continuing, though I do miss Bob so much. I miss the constant humor and quick ping-pong wit back and forth. I know Mike is a more serious personality so I don't expect the same wit ambience as when Bob and Brad are together. However, I see Brad trying to throw in some humor whenever possible. 😉 So appreciated!! I'm a long-time sub. I pray Bob is doing well and perhaps healing too. I miss you Bob! Be well. Cheers!! 🌹👍
That would be wonderful. I’ve been saving the senior ones in different playlists but one full seniors would be good. Miss Bob. Glad he pops in on videos and that he is still involved.
Perfect timing! My sciatica popped off this week. Finally remembered to my hip stretches yesterday, small monster walks, anything mild but hip/pelvis related. Got some more help today thanks to this video! THANK YOU!!!
........simply eat candied ginger.................it worked for me too and my sciatica was so bad i couldn't even sit down - i had to lie down.................
Hi Mike and Brad!! Hi Bob in the background!! I'm really happy to see y'all today with this particular video, these exercises will be extremely helpful with strengthening my hips. I watched it once to get a sense of the workout and the next time I watch it I'll be doing the exercises! 😁 See y'all next video! Toodles!! Enjoy your day!
You MUST do these wonderful exercises and prioritise strength and fitness. They work! Your quality of life will thank you for it ✅✅✅ Thank you, Doctors 🙏
Thank you! I sure hope these exercises work. I’ve been hurting so bad for the last 6 weeks… my first time for it to go this long. I have no idea what I did to bring this on. It’s some miserable pain no matter what position I’m in: sitting, standing, walking, sleeping and driving…etc. I thought it was my knee the first couple of days but it ended up being my whole leg.
After your videos where you describe everything, you should have a part 2 where you do the exercises WITH us, in real time. It’s so much easier that way.
Check out our video "Do You Have Sciatica? (Self-Tests)"- here th-cam.com/video/rdB2pEprH_Q/w-d-xo.html The exercises in this video are completely the brainchild of Rick Olderman. Rick is simply the best physical therapist Brad and Bob know. He has a paid program that is much more effective and complete. In addition, you can pay to see Rick directly online. To find out more about the paid programs or seeing Rick directly go to www.rickolderman.com You won’t regret it.
I have bought a massage gun. I place the gun in a V shape behind my knee and close my leg so it is snug. I know it is not what they should be used for, but the vibration behind the knee and upper calf muscles helps.
Thank you so much for this , as a zen shiatsu therapist, this will help my clients. It's very similar to myself giving a treatment. Your voices are very calming.
I do have sciatica 🙄. However I do some of these exercises and work in the pool and walk on the treadmill. But the inside of my sneaker the sole curled up which sprained my ankle badly. Time out for me at the YMCA. I enjoyed your video as I do have serious balance issues & do use my cane if I need to. Drs wanted too do surgery but my neurologist said "No". So pleased to not listen to those Bone & Joint Drs. Seriously those exercises you shared DO give relief. God Bless! 😊
........simply eat candied ginger.................it worked for me too and my sciatica was so bad i couldn't even sit down - i had to lie down.................
Nice! I've gotten into my 50s, and out of nowhere, I've started pain down my leg and buttocks and it is super annoying. I'll give these a try. Thanks for the help.
........simply eat candied ginger.................it worked for me too and my sciatica was so bad i couldn't even sit down - i had to lie down.................
WOW!! .... Thank You So Much Bob, Brad And Mike!! .. These are Absolutely Most Wonderful Exercises To Perform. Feeling So Flexible Right Now!! .. Thank You For This Excellent Video!! .. Hello Bob!! .. Still Missing You But Glad You Are Behind The Camera!!.. YAY!! .. God Bless You All, CC 🥰❤❤ PS: Brad, Thank You For Explaining Why These Exercises Work So Well!! YOU ROCK!!!
I have Scoliosis so my body is off plus my ankles are fused. Got to love Arthritis. My sciatica started a week ago in the middle of my right butt cheek and part way down my thigh. I have been watching videos and exercises. I still have the sciatica. Before noon I am wiped out from the pain.
Great video Bob, Brad and Mike. I am battling with sciatica as of this year. Mike I've heard you mention the flat shoes help keep you from getting tight calves from toe/healing. May I ask what kind you have on today? I agree, they are nice looking shoes. Thanks for all the help, and light humor.
Wow, these exercises and adjustments are great. Definitely a heel striker and when I switched while watching the video I immediately felt the difference. Liked the angled butt pump too! Thanks for sharing such great info!
In the actuate phase of my sciatica, I can’t do most of these stretches. It’s been over 25 days and finally a little better but this is with medications. I can at least move around the house better. I will now start these stretches slowly. I lost muscle mass in my leg-it’s weak and my hamstring muscle hurts and is weak preventing me from standing on my feet too long. When I walk, my calf muscle is so tight and feels heavy. My feet are stilll numb but seem slightly less numb today. The back of my left foot heel area is always numb now. I hope I didn’t have a severe sciatica melt down and fried the nerves in the back of hamstring and calf
I have been wanting to do some exercises but how does one even move with these exercises..i have lots of pain..n dont take meds..only mag. Citrate, vit d, n bcomplex with c to relieve some pain..
Love your videos! They're really informative. I've been having this pain on the left side of my hip and now I have it on my right too, plus lower back when I get up in the morning. I don't know why, thought it was bursitis at first but now I have my doubts. Could the humidity affect my body and giving me pain? Please help! Thank you both in advance.
I've been dealing with buttocks pain and pain down the side and back of my leg .sSi annoying 😢, I will try this stretches. Thank you. Hi Bob in the back😊❤❤
This looks great if you're not in pain. Can't stand or sit I'm in so much pain. What is the long term solution? I've got a doctor that wants to put a pin in my hip to take the pressure off of my S1, L5 joint. 😢 This pain has me in tears.
Been there. You'll have to wait till the pain subsides. Avoid surgery. The only thing that helped me was seeing an osteopath. He was the only one that was able to fix the underlying issues.
........simply eat candied ginger.................it worked for me too and my sciatica was so bad i couldn't even sit down - i had to lie down.................
I have exactly same issue. The ankle is what keeps me up most of the night. Can’t find a good sleep position. I will try the candied ginger. Is there any that you recommend?
@@matthewmatthew1709 The only way I get some sleep is to put a pillow at my feet in bed position my foot against the pillow till pain goes away. Hope it will help you aswell.Also make sure the pillow is quite heavy as it wont be moving around while sleeping or falling out of bed if you do turn around in your sleep .. I also sleep with a pillow between my knees it also help me.
Question, how do you do exercise #2, bending the standing leg, and still have the other foot be able to clear the ground, without shifting your upper body angle?

Sciatica is a symptom not a diagnosis. So what was the cause of sciatica?
Glad to hear you got some relief. Take care!
Continued prayers for Bob.. Great exercises... Excellent exercises and no product push: thank you!.

tried all the exercises nothing helped. L4-5 disc excision with nerve transposition cured the pain. don't be afraid of surgery when p t doesn't help.

the head helps relive the pain.

Hello I am 15 years old I have pain in lower back hip and left leg for 2 weeks I can walk and even run but I have pain a lot is it sciatica ???😢😢

Thank you 🙏
Thanks to telling the tips.
Thank you guys! Nice shoes, Mike~
Do exercises for sciatica also work for pain from spinal stenosis? they seem very similar
its funny, none of the stretches you mentioned are ones that I had been recommended by my chiros. Never hurts to have a few more for the arsenal!!
Thanks for this video I just did all the exercises and it helps
Glad to hear it, thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing , im going to try these see if they can help me ~

Question, how do you do exercise #2, bending the standing leg, and still have the other foot be able to clear the ground, without shifting your upper body angle?
I think he means to stand with your leg not locked into straight position, with just a little Bend in the standing knee
@@moonxshakti I meant that I have leg length disparity and bending the knee only makes it worse, trying to clear the ground.
