1. The first of these sciatica exercises addresses sciatica caused from the piriformis muscle & leg pain referred from the gluteal muscles. But then it moves on to help another cause of sciatic nerve pain: the lumbar and sacroiliac joints of the lower back.

2. Exercise no.2 is a classic for sciatic pain in the legs: the McKenzie position. But I show you two important variations of the McKenzie treatment for sciatica.

3. The 3rd exercise ("Side Glides" for sciatica) is another McKenzie technique that addresses leg pain from disc bulges that bulge more to the side rather than straight back. But it's also excellent at mobilising spinal joints that cause sciatica.

4. Exercise 4 is a sciatic nerve flossing to help release any adhesions around the sciatic nerve that may be causing your leg pain. Be gentle with this exercise. I chose this version, rather than the seated sciatic nerve glide (where you tilt your head back as your leg comes up) because I have found it to be safer and less likely to cause irritation to the sciatic nerve.

MAKE SURE you watch to the end where I tell you which cases can respond to these sciatica stretches and exercises AND which cases should go straight to the doctor. (If your sciatica nerve is being crushed, causing muscle weakness, muscle wasting in the leg, or bladder/bowel symptoms, the nerve may become permanently damaged. So in some cases certain cases need immediate medical intervention)
