What are Sciatica Stretches?
Stretches specifically performed to help sciatic nerve pain typically target the lower back and upper legs. Some therapists believe that sciatica might come from tight muscles or so called muscle imbalances. Stretching is performed to deal with these theoretically painful issues, along with targeted exercise routines. Stretches will work the muscles, ligaments and tendons, but will not have ANY EFFECT WHATSOEVER on the nerves or any nerve pain Therapists who claim that stretches will cure spinal induced sciatica are typically even less enlightened that the rest of the clueless care providers who prescribe completely inappropriate treatment modalities. Stretches might help to alleviate pseudo-sciatica symptoms due to sacroiliac concerns.
