I KNOW EXACTLY HOW YOU FEEL BECAUSE I HAVE SEEN IT IN THE EYES OF OVER 5,200+ CLIENTS WHO HAVE WALKED THROUGH MY DOORS!! YOU ARE TIRED OF THE UNPREDICTABLE LIGHTNING BOLTS SHOOTING DOWN YOUR LEG!! YOU HAVE REACHED A POINT WHERE YOU ARE AFRAID TO EVEN BEND OVER TO PICK UP A PIECE OF PAPER OR TIE YOUR SHOES!! THIS FEAR IS COMPLETELY NATURAL BUT IT IS ALSO THE VERY THING STANDING IN THE WAY OF YOUR SCIATICA BREAKTHROUGH!!
FOR MOST PEOPLE SUFFERING FROM CHRONIC SCIATICA — THE KIND THAT JUST WON’T QUIT NO MATTER HOW MANY PILLS YOU TAKE — THE PROBLEM ISN'T JUST THE NERVE ITSELF!! IT IS THE FACT THAT YOUR BRAIN HAS BECOME WIRED TO PROTECT YOU BY LOCKING DOWN YOUR MUSCLES!! THIS IS CALLED KINESIOPHOBIA — OR THE FEAR OF MOVEMENT — AND IT CREATES A VICIOUS CYCLE THAT KEEPS YOU TRAPPED IN PAIN!! IF YOU ARE AFRAID TO MOVE, YOUR MUSCLES GET WEAKER AND TIGHTER, WHICH ONLY MAKES THE SCIATICA WORSE WHEN YOU FINALLY DO HAVE TO MOVE!!
AT SCIATICA RELIEF NOW LLC, I HAVE DEVELOPED A SYSTEM CALLED THE 180° SCIATICA SOLUTION TO BREAK THIS CYCLE!! IT IS NOT ABOUT PUSHING THROUGH THE PAIN OR "NO PAIN, NO GAIN" MENTALITY THAT TRADITIONAL PHYSICAL THERAPY OFTEN PROMOTES!! INSTEAD, WE DO THE OPPOSITE!! WE FOCUS ON GENTLE REBALANCING SO YOUR BRAIN FINALLY FEELS SAFE ENOUGH TO LET GO OF THE TENSION!!
1. ACKNOWLEDGE THE FEAR CYCLE AND THE BRAIN-PAIN CONNECTION
THE FIRST STEP TO RECLAIMING YOUR LIFE IS ADMITTING THAT THE FEAR IS REAL!! IF YOU FEEL A TWINGE OF ANXIETY BEFORE GETTING OUT OF BED OR STANDING UP FROM A CHAIR, THAT IS YOUR BRAIN TRYING TO PROTECT YOU!! BUT HERE IS THE SECRET: YOUR BRAIN IS OFTEN WORKING ON OUTDATED INFORMATION!! IT REMEMBERS THE PAIN FROM THREE MONTHS AGO AND IS REACTING AS IF THE INJURY IS STILL FRESH!!
THIS CONSTANT STATE OF "FIGHT OR FLIGHT" IN YOUR NERVOUS SYSTEM MAKES YOUR SCIATIC NERVE EVEN MORE SENSITIVE!! IT IS LIKE TURNING UP THE VOLUME ON A RADIO — SUDDENLY, EVEN THE TINIEST BIT OF PRESSURE FEELS LIKE AN EXPLOSION OF PAIN!! BY ACKNOWLEDGING THIS FEAR, YOU START TO TAKE THE POWER BACK!! YOU ARE NOT "BROKEN" — YOU ARE JUST PROTECTIVE!!
I TELL MY CLIENTS ALL THE TIME THAT UNDERSTANDING WHY YOU ARE AFRAID IS HALF THE BATTLE!! ONCE YOU REALIZE THAT MOVEMENT IS ACTUALLY THE MEDICINE — WHEN DONE CORRECTLY — YOU CAN START TO LOWER THE VOLUME ON THAT PAIN SIGNAL!! IF YOU WANT TO UNDERSTAND MORE ABOUT WHY TRADITIONAL METHODS OFTEN FAIL TO ADDRESS THIS, CHECK OUT THIS LINK: https://sciaticareliefnow.net/are-you-at-your-wits-end-with-sciatica-heres-the-truth-about-why-traditional-therapy-fails
2. BALANCE OUT YOUR IMBALANCES USING THE 180° SCIATICA SOLUTION
THIS IS WHERE THE MAGIC HAPPENS!! MOST PEOPLE TRY TO STRETCH THE SIDE THAT HURTS!! STOP DOING THAT RIGHT NOW!! IF YOUR LEFT LEG HURTS, STRETCHING IT OFTEN JUST PULLS ON THE ALREADY IRRITATED NERVE!! MY SCIATICA BREAKTHROUGH METHOD FOCUSES ON THE NON-PAINFUL SIDE FIRST!!
WE START BY BALANCING OUT THE IMBALANCES IN YOUR BODY!! YOUR BODY IS LIKELY "LEANING" AWAY FROM THE PAIN, WHICH CREATES A MASSIVE IMBALANCE IN YOUR HIPS AND SPINE!! BY PERFORMING GENTLE MOVEMENTS ON THE "GOOD" SIDE, WE SEND A SIGNAL TO THE NERVOUS SYSTEM THAT IT IS SAFE TO RELAX!!
THIS IS A TOTAL NO-BRAINER ONCE YOU SEE IT IN ACTION!! IF WE CAN GET YOUR HIPS LEVEL AND YOUR SPINE ALIGNED WITHOUT CAUSING MORE PAIN, THE PRESSURE ON THE SCIATIC NERVE NATURALLY DECREASES!! THIS IS THE FOUNDATION OF MY 3-STEP PROCESS: 1. BALANCE OUT IMBALANCES!! YOU MUST DO THIS BEFORE YOU TRY TO STRENGTHEN ANYTHING!! FOR A DEEPER DIVE INTO THIS UNIQUE METHOD, READ MORE HERE: https://sciaticareliefnow.net/the-180-method-vs-physical-therapy-which-actually-stops-sciatica-from-coming-back
3. STABILIZE YOUR BODY IN THE NEWLY BALANCED POSITION
ONCE WE HAVE CREATED SOME BALANCE, WE HAVE TO MAKE IT STICK!! THIS IS STEP 2 OF MY PROCESS: STABILIZE IN THE NEWLY BALANCED POSITION!! IF YOU DON'T STABILIZE, YOUR BODY WILL JUST SLIDE BACK INTO ITS OLD, PAINFUL PATTERNS THE MOMENT YOU WALK OUT THE DOOR OR FINISH YOUR EXERCISES!!
STABILIZATION DOESN'T MEAN DOING CRUNCHES OR HEAVY LIFTING!! IT MEANS TEACHING THE DEEP STABILIZING MUSCLES AROUND YOUR PELVIS AND LOWER BACK HOW TO HOLD YOU UPRIGHT WITHOUT OVERWORKING THE BIG MUSCLES THAT ARE ALREADY TIGHT!! WE USE SPECIFIC ISOMETRIC HOLDS — OFTEN FOR ONLY 15-20 SECONDS AT A TIME — TO "LOCK IN" THE NEW ALIGNMENT!!
IF YOU SKIP THIS STEP, YOU WILL BE TRAPPED IN A CYCLE OF FEELING BETTER FOR AN HOUR AND THEN CRASHING BACK INTO PAIN!! STABILITY IS THE BRIDGE BETWEEN BEING "OUT OF PAIN" AND ACTUALLY BEING "HEALED"!! MY CLIENTS WHO COMMIT TO THIS PHASE ARE THE ONES WHO REPORT A 50% REDUCTION IN PAIN WITHIN JUST A FEW WEEKS!!
4. GENTLY RE-INTRODUCE MOVEMENT BY LISTENING TO YOUR BODY
NOW THAT YOU ARE BALANCED AND STABLE, IT IS TIME TO FACE THE FEAR OF MOVEMENT HEAD-ON!! BUT WE DO IT WISELY!! YOU DON'T GO FROM THE COUCH TO A 5-MILE HIKE OVERNIGHT!! WE START WITH LOW-IMPACT ACTIVITIES LIKE GENTLE WALKING OR STATIONARY BIKING!!
THE KEY HERE IS TO PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR BODY'S SIGNALS!! IF THE PAIN IN YOUR LEG STARTS TO MOVE UP TOWARD YOUR LOWER BACK — THIS IS CALLED CENTRALIZATION — THAT IS A HUGE WIN!! IT MEANS THE NERVE IS BECOMING LESS IRRITATED!! BUT IF THE PAIN STARTS TO GO FURTHER DOWN TOWARD YOUR FOOT, YOU STOP IMMEDIATELY!!
CONSISTENCY IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN INTENSITY!! I WOULD RATHER SEE YOU WALK FOR 5 MINUTES THREE TIMES A DAY THAN TRY TO WALK FOR 15 MINUTES ONCE AND END UP ON THE COUCH WITH AN ICE PACK!! WE WANT TO RE-TRAIN YOUR BRAIN TO RECOGNIZE THAT MOVEMENT IS SAFE AND BENEFICIAL!! YOU ARE BUILDING CONFIDENCE WITH EVERY STEP!! IF YOU ARE WONDERING HOW LONG THIS PROCESS TAKES, YOU SHOULD READ THIS: https://sciaticareliefnow.net/how-long-to-heal-your-sciatica-what-you-need-to-know-to-get-your-sciatica-pain-to-go-away
5. RETURN TO NORMAL LIFE SLOWLY AND WISELY
THE FINAL STEP OF MY 3-STEP PROCESS IS TO RETURN TO NORMAL SLOWLY AND WISELY!! THIS IS THE PHASE WHERE YOU START GETTING YOUR LIFE BACK!! YOU START DOING THE THINGS YOU LOVE AGAIN — LIKE GOLFING, HIKING, OR PLAYING WITH YOUR GRANDKIDS!!
BUT "WISELY" IS THE OPERATIVE WORD!! YOU HAVE TO MAINTAIN THE BALANCING EXERCISES WE TAUGHT YOU IN THE BEGINNING AS A FORM OF MAINTENANCE!! THINK OF IT LIKE BRUSHING YOUR TEETH — YOU DON'T JUST DO IT UNTIL THE CAVITY IS GONE AND THEN STOP!! YOU DO IT TO PREVENT FUTURE PROBLEMS!!
I HAVE SEEN OVER 5,200+ CLIENTS TRANSFORM FROM BEING LITERALLY UNABLE TO WALK TO LIVING FULL, VIBRANT LIVES!! BUT THE ONES WHO SUCCEED ARE THE ONES WHO RECOGNIZE THAT RECOVERY IS A JOURNEY, NOT A SPRINT!! IF YOU ARE READY TO START THAT JOURNEY BUT DON'T KNOW WHERE TO BEGIN, I HAVE THE PERFECT STARTING POINT FOR YOU!!
