I really can't tell or express how I'm feeling right now, simply because I'm just so super excited. I just got rid of my HSV1 and HSV2 with the assistance of one Herbalist Doctor Kingsley popularly known on TH-cam as THE SEVEN DAYS FAST CURE FOR HERPES 1&2. Herbalist Doctor Kingsley alone got the real cure for herpes
I’ve been having debilitating sciatica nerve pain on my left side all the way down to my outer left ankle. I wake up in spasm every morning between 4-5am. This pain is no joke. Hugs to anyone dealing with this. ❤
I had the same problem after a spine injection...it caused the piraformis in the butt area to pinch the sciatic nerve that caused my outside leg muscle to top of toes to spasm. Would jump out of bed and stand on my toes. Went back to Dr. and the PA did a cortisone injection in piraformis in 2 places....BINGO...GONE. Might want to check it out...these stretches really help too. Hope this helps! 😊
@@Tee-Star 🫶🏼 🫂 I have seen improvement with gentle exercises and drinking ginger tea and taking tumeric ( and I was prescribed flexeril) Our body can heal itself in many instances- it just takes time. I didn’t improve for 8 weeks! I hope you feel better! ❤️🩹
I just want to thank Father in heaven for you and your wisdom you share with us .I had back surgery over 3 years ago and Iam fused from sacrum 1 to lumbar number 5. I recently started having the symptoms you've described in this wonderful video .I just got done doing the stretches and Iam feeling instant relief! Thank God and thank you Doc for what you do ! 🙏🙂
I have been suffering lumbar stenosis for 45 years 😢 due to a car accident, been rejecting surgery for the past 20 years hoping to find help without the surgery, for yhe past 10 years I have been dealing with sciatica, tried acupuncture, pt, massage, pain medication, epidurals, etc., etc. I found this video today when I was crying and praying for relief. I did the exercises, plus another one of your videos on how to decompress your stenosis. I can't thank you enough, I felt relieved , almost immediately. Thank you so so much Dr. God bless you. I already subscribed 🙏🙏
Am so happy you get relief I can’t imagine you had pain that long I feel pain for veiw days and here I come already looking for answers thanks to this doctor and god bless you I pray you get more healthy 😊
Thank you 🙏🙏 I have been in pain for almost 2 months, I went to my GP first who treated me for 4 weeks with Voltaren inj and pain meds twice a week, he then referred me to an Orthopedic Specialist who had X-rays and MRI taken and could not see anything out of the ordinary. He had me lay flat on my back and only get up to go to loo for 2 weeks and referred me to a Neurologist and would have forwarded him the MRI as well. That was 2-3 weeks ago, and I still have not had any feedback regarding an appointment or diagnoses. I received the link for your stretching exercises and started following them seeing that the pain was getting worse and I was not getting any help from the Drs. I am so thankful for your video!!! For the first time in 2 months the pain is starting to subside, I can move around for longer periods and as soon as the pain comes back I do the stretches again and I can immediately feel a difference!! Thank you so much!!!
Perfect timing Dr. Mandell! My sciatic nerve woke me up at 3:30 this morning! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us, you are a blessing! I will begin these immediately. 💜
Thank you so much! This is just what I needed this morning. I’ve been having so many issues on my left side. I thank God that I got this notification this morning! God bless you!
😮 omg… me three! Left side and couldn’t get comfy or sleep. Dr Mandell perhaps 🤔 can feel our pain or mind reading!?! 😅 lol 😆 lol! p.s. the stretches actually helped me this first time, I’m amazed how quick and easy it is! 🥳
It’s amazing that I just happened to run into your exercises for sciatica pain. Last week I began stretching exercises by my PT and what I’m paying for, you just gave it to me free. Thank Doc. we can always count on you . 👍🏽
These Stretches from Doctor Mandell changed my life. I had been struggling for over a month to be able to stand up straight without pain. I was beginning to think now that I'm 73 I might have to deal with it but Doctor Mandell gave me the medicine i needed with these stretches. I am so thankful to God for Doctor Mandell.
What a great video.I have been diagnosed with multiple bulging disc in my lower back. The pain is life altering. I can't even describe the amount of constant pain I endure. I have a lot of pain around the lower spine area and my right butt cheek is constantly numb and the pain starting below my right knee to the top of my foot is awful. I did these excercises and stretches this morning and I was amazed. Really. It has cut my pain lever by more than half which is huge for me. My range of motion has vastly improved and bending over is doable again. Even the pain level from just doing nothing has vastly improved instantly. I'm very greatful!!
I have always been healthy and pain free but about 2 months ago something happened and my leg has been ON FIRE with pain, like unable to walk in pain. I have watched hundreds of videos and stretches, tried tens unit, CBD, ibuprofen.. walking, resting, squatting. Nothing helped. I watched this video and stretched with it for only the duration of this video and my pain is 75% gone. Thank you, SO SO MUCH for posting this!!!!!
Thank you, Dr. Alan Mandell! I watched the sciatica release video standing up yesterday morning, and by that night, I could hardly feel that painful discomfort that had for five days! I was pleased to find this one today, seated stretches for sciatica. My office work and my sedentary lifestyle caused hours of seating 💺 in a day, and now I'm walking outside, Thanks to God for giving me that desire and energy.
Thank you Dr. Mandell for your videos! They are all very helpful and works. I have found a difference in my pain and health due to the information I receive from your videos. Not many doctors would take the time to help all of us via this FREE informative video.
Un grand merci, Dr. Mandell!!! After following your instructions, I felt instant and complete relief. I have bookmarked your video and will share it with my friends and family members. The past three months, I had buttock pain on my left side and could not find a permanent solution. I'm so glad I came across your video. You're now part of my treasure list!!! Dina
Thank you so much Dr. Mandel. I really need this. I love that your recommendations are natural and simple. Always find them very helpful. Blessings to you!
Thank you so much. I have all of these problems and have had two surgeries. The chronic sciatic pain is killing my will to enjoy life. I have lovely aqua physical therapists, but then they hand me a sheet of at home exercises and say "do these daily" and never explain how to and ho long to do them. This video will be my daily companion. Thank you so much. Hoping for some relief now.
I have been in pain for 2 days. I decided to look up ways to release the nerve and when I saw it was you I clicked immediately. You've never let me down. Your advice is spot on. I'm sitting here feeling so much better after stretching along with this video. ❤
I had issues with the left side piriformis muscle and I had gotten information to do stretches (like the ones your video explains) while I was in the pain. I almost did not take that advice, because it was so painful to do. But, I badly needed the relief and I followed the advice. It has been 10 years and I have not experienced this issue since then. FYI - After the issue resolved, I continued the stretches over the years and I still periodically do them. This is an awesome video on this topic, Dr. Mandell!! 🎉Thank you, Thank you!🎉
I've always had my lower back pain come and go and never knew why. This couldn't have been a better video. 5-10 minutes and it feels so much better. Thank you
Dr Mandel, you are truly a gift from God! Thank you for all that you share with us to keep us healthy, moving, and pain free. I am 77 years old and just beginning to feel aches and pains. I’ve done Yoga classes since I was 18 and I feel this has kept me as limber as possible. Your stretches and postures have helped me stay healthy. God’s blessings for continued success and good health for you🙏💕
I'm just starting these because I am so desperately in pain. I've done PT for 3 weeks, heat, ice, TENS, red light therapy, cupping...at my wits end. I am going to try these because they make sense and really targeted my pain areas. Thanks for giving me hope. Stay tuned...
Dr. Mandel good morning and thank you as always for all of your brilliant tips and instructions to relieve pain in the anatomy God bless you and thank you 💟👍🏼✝️🙏😇
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 You are human child of God I was crying because of this pain I did the exercise you are telling me to do with you I can't believe it 💯 % no pain thank you❤ I think I can do three or four meals a day
Perfect timing. I'm going to do these exercises now. I really appreciate how clear and concise your instructions are. Also you always explain the whys and wherefores of what's going on. Bless you. 💖
Wow... I have started doing these stretching demo's and what a difference ... Slowly, and now I'm doing more and more. I'm planning on doing yoga this summer . I believe that will help as well. Thanks Doc... Really!
I have never cussed and cried in my life but I practiced every move and my God it worked. Thank you. Thank you. I feel significant improvement and I honestly wish I could give you an award. ❤. thanks again
Thank you so much doctor . I finally feel tingling in my joints , and it feels like pressure pull in my back of my thighs has has stopped pulling as much . Thank you ! I've been in pain for months now. I will continue to pray & watch you .
Just wanted to say Thank You!!!! Did the exercises twice yesterday (first time doing them) and what a relief.. also found the stretch for the front of the hip. This also helped!. I don't normally reply to anything but I just had to let you know how much I appreciated your video. Thank you so much!!!
I have been following because of the medical remedies. But this exercise to help sciatica has been the most helpful. I am a 60 year old golfer and begin to wonder if I could continue. I pray these stretches will help my pain and I can continue the sport I love. 😅
Thanks Dr Mandell God bless you my friend I am sure all these prayers from all of these people who benefit from your tips including my self may GOD reward you Ameen 🙏🏼
Thank you so much for this help with the piriformis I've been having pain since 2011 the exercises will help. My back from arthritis the fibromyalgia and uterine prolapse makes it difficult to exercise but I try to get pain relief any way I can!! Thank you!!😢😊
Some fasting can help a great deal with arthritis and fibromyalgia. Also has many other benefits, including for the immune system which is also what the body uses to repair the damage of aging. Some of the many benefits of doing occasional extended fasting: Blood clotting is reduced and blood clots and arterial plaque are reabsorbed into the body. High blood pressure is lowered to normal levels very quickly while fasting. Fribrosis/scarring is reversed over time. Fasting increases nitric oxide release. Vitamin D plasma levels are increased as fasting improves metabolic health, and vitamin D in turn increases autophagy. Telomeres are lengthend and fasting also increases anti-aging Yamanaka factors. Fasting stimulates phagocytosis, the ingestion of bacteria, plaques and viruses by the immune system. It will also remove any 'foreign material' that is not supposed to be there. After 72 hours or more fasted, your body recycles as much as 1/3 of all immune bodies and creates new ones, rejuvenating your entire immune system. Fasting can help with MS, Depression, BPD, Autism and seizures. Thymus is regenerated, which suppresses aging and renews the immune system. The thymus also plays a vital role in fighting cancer. Weight loss from daily caloric restriction has 1/4 to 1/3 of the weight lost as lean tissue while many studies show fat loss from 36 h fasts without losing any lean tissue! The hunger hormone ghrelin also lowers with extended fasting and rises from dieting. Blood sugar and insulin are lowered, allowing white blood cells to move more freely throughout the body and do their job. Ideal blood sugar is around 80. Some viruses activate glycolosis (the release of sugar in the body) and clinically it has been shown that decreasing glucose metabolism in the body weakens the influenza virus. When you move out of MTOR your body shuts down the building blocks of the cell which are used to produce organelles and proteins. This means the mechanisms needed by viruses to replicate are by and large unavailable when you are in a deeply fasted state. What breaks a fast? Anything with protein or carbohydrates in it will break a fast, though if the amount is tiny you will go back into ketosis very quickly. Most teas and herbs are OK. Most supplements and meds will either break ketosis directly or contain a filler that will. Many medications are dangerous to take while fasting so you may have to talk to your dr. about discontinuing them during a fast. Does fasting lower testosterone? No, it raises it when the fast is broken by increasing lutenizing hormone. Fasting also increases insulin sensitivity, which helps with muscle building. Fasts of 36-96 will not affect short term female fertility or affect menstrual cycle. They also may increase long term fertility, especially in women with PCOS. The hormone Leptin is an immunomodulator that keeps the body from attacking itself and obesity causes leptin resistance. Fasting very quickly reduces leptin resistance and leptin levels and one day of fasting can cut your leptin levels in half and gets your immune system working properly again! Does the body preferentially prefer glucose as a fuel? No, except for brief periods of very intense exercise, your body mainly burns fats in the form of free fatty acids. Your brain also prefers to burn ketones at a rate of around 2.5 to 1 when they are available in equal quantity to glucose. Fasting stimulates the AMPK complex and activates autophagy. Autophagy (literally self eating) will cause cells to recycle foreign matter such as viruses and kill cancerous and senescent cells. AMPK does many helpful things in the body including activating the body's antioxidant defenses. Deep ketosis virtually eliminates chronic inflammation in the body. This can offset the life threatening symptoms of viral pneumonia which effectively kills you through inflammation. This also creates BHB ketones in your body, which help your immune system and anti-oxidative system, especially in the brain. When not in ketosis, the brain can only burn carbohydrate, which produces a great deal of damaging ROS the brain has to deal with. It increases mitochondrial function and repairs mitichondrial DNA, leading to improved ATP production and oxygen efficiency and thereby making cells better able to fight off infection. Increased mitochondrial function also has the added benefit of increasing your metabolism and cancer prevention! When you fast, this stimulates apoptosis in senescent or genetically damaged cells, which destroys them. Fasting also releases BDNF and NGF in the blood which stimulates new nerve and brain cell growth. This can help a great deal with diseases like MS, peripheral neuropathy and Alzheimers. In fact, the biochemical regulator of BDNF production is beta-hydroxybutyrate, which is the same ketone the body produces to nourish the brain while fasting. Fasting also increases telomere length, negating some of the effects of aging at a cellular level. A fasting mimicking diet for 3-5 days in a row also provides many of the same benefits as water fasting. FMD usually has 200-800 calories, under 18 g of protein and extremely low carbs. Exogenous ketones can aid with fasting, making it easier in healthy people and allowing some people with specific issues to fast in spite of them without worrying as much about hypoglycemia. Children, pregnant or nursing women should not fast for periods longer than 16 hours. People with pancreatic tumors or certain forms of hypoglycemia generally cannot fast at all. Type 1 diabetics can also fast but it is more complicated and should be approached with caution as it could lead to ketoacidosis. Those with Addison's disease may also be unable to fast without liberal use of exogenous ketones, depending on severity. If you experience extreme symptoms of some kind, especially dizziness then simply break the fast and seek advice.

Thank you so much for creating this video! I was in a lot of pain and it started to alleviate the first time I did your stretches, and within that week I was back to normal. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

@@motivationaldoc you're welcome there's someone pretending to be you. i know it's not like you please say it whenever you sending us a video God bless you for the work you're doing with us all ❤️👑
Dr.Mandell, This exercise does work wonders! I remember this when taking Tae Kwon do Karate in my early days. Such a great way to stretch and keep the body and muscles stronger. I know your making a difference in many here and it benefits us all . 😊 God bless you and everyone that follows your advoce. Your the modern day Doctor For us all. Thank you always!!!
Hi Dr Madell, l fell on my butt some years ago while going down a hill. Now am having lower back pain. I did a MRI and l was told that l have to have an operation done as the L5 & S1( think those are the ones) was damaged. I am scared but also hoping that there may be another option like therapy. What do you? think?
I did the exercises and felt immediately better. Thank you Dr. Mandell. I have tried other exercises but none gave the relief to the same degree. I had three adjustments from my chiropractor because my right hip was out of joint. Your exercises seem to be extremely beneficial!!
Dr Mandela, you are absolute blessing. I have been dealing with sciatic pain for years , I did these exercises one minute each and my hip is feeling better already. I will do my best to do them every day so I can experience healings. Thank you again.
Thanks again Doc Mandel for coming to the rescue, my pain is unbearable at times. I'm getting on it right away. Can this be done on the bed uf the mattress is hard eough? My apartment is small and doesn't accommodate a couch
I've been struggling with paraformis spasms for 5 months barely being able to walk. I've done these stretches for 4 days now and the pain has gone down substantially. I didn't know muscle spasms can be related to living with high anxiety stress and fear for years so I have also started really taking care of my mental health and I very much believe that the 2 combined are what is helping. Thank you for this video. It has been a huge blessing.
What an awesome video Doc! Even for a general stretch or to prevent sciatic pain this is excellent. I have hamstring tightness & right hip is tighter than left. I bet this will help greatly with this too. Thanks so much for posting!
Love these & always sweet synchronicity...woke up w/sciatica hurting & this notification was waiting on my phone! Glory be! Thank You, Lord for Doc Mandell. 🙌🙌🙌
I have been in pain for years. Been to the physiotherapist. I discovered Dr Mandell and he has been an absolute life saver!!!! Thank you Dr Mandell!!! God bless you
I am in my mid 20’s and I feel so much pain in this area, I was very concerned but I feeling so so much better after doing these exercises!! Thank youuuu
Thank you for this invaluable and straight forward tutorial dealing with such a painful problem. There are so many wildly different exercise tutorials on You Tube regarding siatica and pelvic/back pain and this one seems the most effective and doable.
Thank you for this video. It was simple and easy to follow. For the first time since my sciatica started acting up about a month ago, I have felt better. What a relief. These exercises are just what I needed. Thank you so much. Many blessings to you. ❤
Thank you Dr Mandell 😊 I have a pinched nerve due to chronic DDD & scoliosis I've lost 2 1/2 inches in height over 20 yrs. This is the 2nd time this nerve has been pinched I went through weeks of therapy to have it to release. So when it happen again I knew most of the exercises and stretches. These stretches that you just showed are part of my routine. It has going been 4 days now praying it releases soon.
I also have scoliosis and loss 2 inches in my years of having scoliosis 😢 Ive had it since childhood. It hurts bad but these stretches are a life- saver!! May our lord heal you ❤
I dont usually posts comments, but I just want to thank u doctor, i was unable to sleep for almost a week now because of the pain, and your video helped me reduce the pain by significant amount with just one session. I will continue doing this everyday. Thank you.
Awesome. Thank you so much! I had heart valve replacement 4 months ago. I didn’t request a pillow under my knees and have been losing sleep from my legs and sciatica pain. I can already tell this is gonna help me so much!
Dr. Mendell, this has already helped. I was having numbness, lower buttock, and leg pains. Some itching in leg to bottom of feet. I did these exercises and already feel releaf . God bless you, and thank you!
Thank you Dr.Mandell! Been dealing with left side sciatica and lower back pain for a few months. Tried these stretches last night and felt NOTICEABLY better. Just went through a second day of stretching and wanted to say thank you! Forever grateful for your help.

I slept for the first time in over a week for 6 hrs without waking up in a shooting pain down my right leg.. and im only in day two of your exercise recommendation. THANK YOU FROM DOWN UNDER 🙏🙏🇦🇺🇦🇺
I have been in pain for over a week. This actually worked instantly. I saved the video so I can keep stretching. Praise God!!

I’ve been having debilitating sciatica nerve pain on my left side all the way down to my outer left ankle. I wake up in spasm every morning between 4-5am. This pain is no joke. Hugs to anyone dealing with this. ❤
I had the same problem after a spine injection...it caused the piraformis in the butt area to pinch the sciatic nerve that caused my outside leg muscle to top of toes to spasm. Would jump out of bed and stand on my toes. Went back to Dr. and the PA did a cortisone injection in piraformis in 2 places....BINGO...GONE. Might want to check it out...these stretches really help too. Hope this helps! 😊

Hugs to you as well. Hopefully, we will get great results from these exercises ❤

Thank you 🙏🙏
I have been in pain for almost 2 months, I went to my GP first who treated me for 4 weeks with Voltaren inj and pain meds twice a week, he then referred me to an Orthopedic Specialist who had X-rays and MRI taken and could not see anything out of the ordinary. He had me lay flat on my back and only get up to go to loo for 2 weeks and referred me to a Neurologist and would have forwarded him the MRI as well. That was 2-3 weeks ago, and I still have not had any feedback regarding an appointment or diagnoses. I received the link for your stretching exercises and started following them seeing that the pain was getting worse and I was not getting any help from the Drs.
I am so thankful for your video!!! For the first time in 2 months the pain is starting to subside, I can move around for longer periods and as soon as the pain comes back I do the stretches again and I can immediately feel a difference!!
Thank you so much!!!
thanks God you get better i have the same pain i will try this
Thanks Doc
Perfect timing Dr. Mandell! My sciatic nerve woke me up at 3:30 this morning! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us, you are a blessing! I will begin these immediately. 💜
Glad it was helpful!
These stretches have given me 95% instant relief,I had horrific sciatica pain and lower back,thank you❤
Bless you with Love.
Thank you so much! This is just what I needed this morning. I’ve been having so many issues on my left side. I thank God that I got this notification this morning! God bless you!
Me too, left side and this morning!
😮 omg… me three! Left side and couldn’t get comfy or sleep. Dr Mandell perhaps 🤔 can feel our pain or mind reading!?!
😅 lol 😆 lol!
p.s. the stretches actually helped me this first time, I’m amazed how quick and easy it is! 🥳
You are so welcome!
@@kathrynbillinghurst188 Same here, Kathryn! Thank you, Lord!

It’s amazing that I just happened to run into your exercises for sciatica pain. Last week I began stretching exercises by my PT and what I’m paying for, you just gave it to me free. Thank Doc. we can always count on you . 👍🏽
These Stretches from Doctor Mandell changed my life.
I had been struggling for over a month to be able to stand up straight without pain. I was beginning to think now that I'm 73 I might have to deal with it but Doctor Mandell gave me the medicine i needed with these stretches. I am so thankful to God for Doctor Mandell.
What a great video.I have been diagnosed with multiple bulging disc in my lower back. The pain is life altering. I can't even describe the amount of constant pain I endure. I have a lot of pain around the lower spine area and my right butt cheek is constantly numb and the pain starting below my right knee to the top of my foot is awful. I did these excercises and stretches this morning and I was amazed. Really. It has cut my pain lever by more than half which is huge for me. My range of motion has vastly improved and bending over is doable again. Even the pain level from just doing nothing has vastly improved instantly. I'm very greatful!!
I feel your pain. Try natural anti inflamation. It helps me a great deal
Hope it's still working for you.

Wow, just done this excerice. I feel much better. Pain relief is unbelievable. I've been walking on this pain for more then 4 years.
I have always been healthy and pain free but about 2 months ago something happened and my leg has been ON FIRE with pain, like unable to walk in pain. I have watched hundreds of videos and stretches, tried tens unit, CBD, ibuprofen.. walking, resting, squatting. Nothing helped.
I watched this video and stretched with it for only the duration of this video and my pain is 75% gone. Thank you, SO SO MUCH for posting this!!!!!
Same here, sudden pain, can hardly walk.
Super! I'll incorporate these stretches in my daily routine. Glad you posted this video. You're a Godsend Sir 👍🏾🙏🏾✌🏾💯%.
Thank you, Dr. Alan Mandell! I watched the sciatica release video standing up yesterday morning, and by that night, I could hardly feel that painful discomfort that had for five days! I was pleased to find this one today, seated stretches for sciatica. My office work and my sedentary lifestyle caused hours of seating 💺 in a day, and now I'm walking outside, Thanks to God for giving me that desire and energy.
Thank you Dr. Mandell for your videos! They are all very helpful and works. I have found a difference in my pain and health due to the information I receive from your videos. Not many doctors would take the time to help all of us via this FREE informative video.
Un grand merci, Dr. Mandell!!! After following your instructions, I felt instant and complete relief. I have bookmarked your video and will share it with my friends and family members. The past three months, I had buttock pain on my left side and could not find a permanent solution. I'm so glad I came across your video. You're now part of my treasure list!!! Dina
By the time I made it two-thirds through the stretches, I already felt relief! I can't tell you how much I appreciate it.
Perfect timing for me at 69 years young, twice a day for10 days fantastic results. Thank you Doc.
Thank you so much Dr. Mandel. I really need this. I love that your recommendations are natural and simple. Always find them very helpful. Blessings to you!
Wonderful!
Thank you so much. I have all of these problems and have had two surgeries. The chronic sciatic pain is killing my will to enjoy life. I have lovely aqua physical therapists, but then they hand me a sheet of at home exercises and say "do these daily" and never explain how to and ho long to do them. This video will be my daily companion. Thank you so much. Hoping for some relief now.
Praying 🙏🏽 for you, I encourage you be strong 💪🏾 and courageous
What kinds of therapists are they then....they should show you how to do these exercises atleast....
I have been in pain for 2 days. I decided to look up ways to release the nerve and when I saw it was you I clicked immediately. You've never let me down. Your advice is spot on. I'm sitting here feeling so much better after stretching along with this video. ❤
Me too 🎉
I had issues with the left side piriformis muscle and I had gotten information to do stretches (like the ones your video explains) while I was in the pain. I almost did not take that advice, because it was so painful to do. But, I badly needed the relief and I followed the advice. It has been 10 years and I have not experienced this issue since then. FYI - After the issue resolved, I continued the stretches over the years and I still periodically do them. This is an awesome video on this topic, Dr. Mandell!! 🎉Thank you, Thank you!🎉
been in pain for 3 years, feeling hopeless, it is comforting to know it eventually heals!
Thank you Dr Mandrell. It's still too painful to do certain exercises but I will keep working on it .Praise the Lord for sending you.
Thanks doctor, you're always right on point. Your videos have helped me and my family a lot. God bless you tremendously 🙏
Happy to help
Wow, this video is heaven sent...been having sciatic pain this past week ..will be doing these stretches starting today thank you Dr Mandel
I've always had my lower back pain come and go and never knew why. This couldn't have been a better video. 5-10 minutes and it feels so much better. Thank you
Dr. M thank you so so much. I did this stretch and it felt so much better. I hv lower back pain daily. You're so beautiful for all that you do. ❤
You're so welcome!
Dr Mandel, you are truly a gift from God! Thank you for all that you share with us to keep us healthy, moving, and pain free. I am 77 years old and just beginning to feel aches and pains. I’ve done Yoga classes since I was 18 and I feel this has kept me as limber as possible. Your stretches and postures have helped me stay healthy. God’s blessings for continued success and good health for you🙏💕
I'm just starting these because I am so desperately in pain. I've done PT for 3 weeks, heat, ice, TENS, red light therapy, cupping...at my wits end. I am going to try these because they make sense and really targeted my pain areas. Thanks for giving me hope. Stay tuned...
Thank you so so much!!
I finally got some pain relief from doing these exercises.
I appreciate you so much. May God bless you always!!
🙏💖🙏💖🙏💖🙏

Thank you GOD for Dr. Mandel. The stretches/ words of encouragement made such a difference. Thank you Dr. Mandel
Wow... I have started doing these stretching demo's and what a difference ... Slowly, and now I'm doing more and more. I'm planning on doing yoga this summer . I believe that will help as well. Thanks Doc... Really!

Just wanted to say Thank You!!!! Did the exercises twice yesterday (first time doing them) and what a relief.. also found the stretch for the front of the hip. This also helped!. I don't normally reply to anything but I just had to let you know how much I appreciated your video. Thank you so much!!!
I have been following because of the medical remedies. But this exercise to help sciatica has been the most helpful. I am a 60 year old golfer and begin to wonder if I could continue. I pray these stretches will help my pain and I can continue the sport I love. 😅
Thanks Dr Mandell God bless you my friend I am sure all these prayers from all of these people who benefit from your tips including my self may GOD reward you Ameen 🙏🏼

Thank you so much for this help with the piriformis I've been having pain since 2011 the exercises will help. My back from arthritis the fibromyalgia and uterine prolapse makes it difficult to exercise but I try to get pain relief any way I can!! Thank you!!😢😊
Some fasting can help a great deal with arthritis and fibromyalgia. Also has many other benefits, including for the immune system which is also what the body uses to repair the damage of aging. Some of the many benefits of doing occasional extended fasting: Blood clotting is reduced and blood clots and arterial plaque are reabsorbed into the body. High blood pressure is lowered to normal levels very quickly while fasting. Fribrosis/scarring is reversed over time.
Fasting increases nitric oxide release.
Vitamin D plasma levels are increased as fasting improves metabolic health, and vitamin D in turn increases autophagy.
Telomeres are lengthend and fasting also increases anti-aging Yamanaka factors.
Fasting stimulates phagocytosis, the ingestion of bacteria, plaques and viruses by the immune system. It will also remove any 'foreign material' that is not supposed to be there.
After 72 hours or more fasted, your body recycles as much as 1/3 of all immune bodies and creates new ones, rejuvenating your entire immune system.
Fasting can help with MS, Depression, BPD, Autism and seizures.
Thymus is regenerated, which suppresses aging and renews the immune system. The thymus also plays a vital role in fighting cancer.
Weight loss from daily caloric restriction has 1/4 to 1/3 of the weight lost as lean tissue while many studies show fat loss from 36 h fasts without losing any lean tissue! The hunger hormone ghrelin also lowers with extended fasting and rises from dieting.
Blood sugar and insulin are lowered, allowing white blood cells to move more freely throughout the body and do their job. Ideal blood sugar is around 80. Some viruses activate glycolosis (the release of sugar in the body) and clinically it has been shown that decreasing glucose metabolism in the body weakens the influenza virus.
When you move out of MTOR your body shuts down the building blocks of the cell which are used to produce organelles and proteins. This means the mechanisms needed by viruses to replicate are by and large unavailable when you are in a deeply fasted state.
What breaks a fast? Anything with protein or carbohydrates in it will break a fast, though if the amount is tiny you will go back into ketosis very quickly. Most teas and herbs are OK. Most supplements and meds will either break ketosis directly or contain a filler that will. Many medications are dangerous to take while fasting so you may have to talk to your dr. about discontinuing them during a fast.
Does fasting lower testosterone? No, it raises it when the fast is broken by increasing lutenizing hormone. Fasting also increases insulin sensitivity, which helps with muscle building.
Fasts of 36-96 will not affect short term female fertility or affect menstrual cycle. They also may increase long term fertility, especially in women with PCOS.
The hormone Leptin is an immunomodulator that keeps the body from attacking itself and obesity causes leptin resistance. Fasting very quickly reduces leptin resistance and leptin levels and one day of fasting can cut your leptin levels in half and gets your immune system working properly again!
Does the body preferentially prefer glucose as a fuel? No, except for brief periods of very intense exercise, your body mainly burns fats in the form of free fatty acids. Your brain also prefers to burn ketones at a rate of around 2.5 to 1 when they are available in equal quantity to glucose.
Fasting stimulates the AMPK complex and activates autophagy. Autophagy (literally self eating) will cause cells to recycle foreign matter such as viruses and kill cancerous and senescent cells. AMPK does many helpful things in the body including activating the body's antioxidant defenses.
Deep ketosis virtually eliminates chronic inflammation in the body. This can offset the life threatening symptoms of viral pneumonia which effectively kills you through inflammation. This also creates BHB ketones in your body, which help your immune system and anti-oxidative system, especially in the brain. When not in ketosis, the brain can only burn carbohydrate, which produces a great deal of damaging ROS the brain has to deal with.
It increases mitochondrial function and repairs mitichondrial DNA, leading to improved ATP production and oxygen efficiency and thereby making cells better able to fight off infection. Increased mitochondrial function also has the added benefit of increasing your metabolism and cancer prevention!
When you fast, this stimulates apoptosis in senescent or genetically damaged cells, which destroys them.
Fasting also releases BDNF and NGF in the blood which stimulates new nerve and brain cell growth. This can help a great deal with diseases like MS, peripheral neuropathy and Alzheimers.
In fact, the biochemical regulator of BDNF production is beta-hydroxybutyrate, which is the same ketone the body produces to nourish the brain while fasting.
Fasting also increases telomere length, negating some of the effects of aging at a cellular level.
A fasting mimicking diet for 3-5 days in a row also provides many of the same benefits as water fasting. FMD usually has 200-800 calories, under 18 g of protein and extremely low carbs.
Exogenous ketones can aid with fasting, making it easier in healthy people and allowing some people with specific issues to fast in spite of them without worrying as much about hypoglycemia.
Children, pregnant or nursing women should not fast for periods longer than 16 hours. People with pancreatic tumors or certain forms of hypoglycemia generally cannot fast at all. Type 1 diabetics can also fast but it is more complicated and should be approached with caution as it could lead to ketoacidosis. Those with Addison's disease may also be unable to fast without liberal use of exogenous ketones, depending on severity. If you experience extreme symptoms of some kind, especially dizziness then simply break the fast and seek advice.

Great endurance dr, respect..
So nice of you
Thank you Dr Mandela, I’m finally free of pain after all these years❤❤
Dr.Mandell,
This exercise does work wonders! I remember this when taking Tae Kwon do Karate in my early days. Such a great way to stretch and keep the body and muscles stronger. I know your making a difference in many here and it benefits us all . 😊 God bless you and everyone that follows your advoce. Your the modern day Doctor For us all. Thank you always!!!
Hi Dr Madell, l fell on my butt some years ago while going down a hill. Now am having lower back pain. I did a MRI and l was told that l have to have an operation done as the L5 & S1( think those are the ones) was damaged. I am scared but also hoping that there may be another option like therapy. What do you? think?
I did the exercises and felt immediately better. Thank you Dr. Mandell. I have tried other exercises but none gave the relief to the same degree. I had three adjustments from my chiropractor because my right hip was out of joint. Your exercises seem to be extremely beneficial!!
🎉❤ very dear Dr.mandell u r gorgeous with your amazing and useful videos ❤
Thanks a ton❤️
Dr Mandela, you are absolute blessing. I have been dealing with sciatic pain for years , I did these exercises one minute each and my hip is feeling better already. I will do my best to do them every day so I can experience healings. Thank you again.
Thanks again Doc Mandel for coming to the rescue, my pain is unbearable at times. I'm getting on it right away.
Can this be done on the bed uf the mattress is hard eough? My apartment is small and doesn't accommodate a couch
Yes, absolutely
I've been struggling with paraformis spasms for 5 months barely being able to walk. I've done these stretches for 4 days now and the pain has gone down substantially. I didn't know muscle spasms can be related to living with high anxiety stress and fear for years so I have also started really taking care of my mental health and I very much believe that the 2 combined are what is helping. Thank you for this video. It has been a huge blessing.
These stretches are awesome and helpful!
Thank God I’ve found a video that is giving me relief for back pain...thank you Dr.
This is great stuff - thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
79 years old and this exercise routine has cured my lower back and hip pain 100 percent thanks from David
What an awesome video Doc! Even for a general stretch or to prevent sciatic pain this is excellent. I have hamstring tightness & right hip is tighter than left. I bet this will help greatly with this too. Thanks so much for posting!
Blessings 😊
Thank you so much for this content, my lower back pain went immediately away after doing some of this stretches
Love these & always sweet synchronicity...woke up w/sciatica hurting & this notification was waiting on my phone! Glory be! Thank You, Lord for Doc Mandell. 🙌🙌🙌

Thank you Dr Mandell 😊 I have a pinched nerve due to chronic DDD & scoliosis I've lost 2 1/2 inches in height over 20 yrs.
