In all my years in Occupational Health & Safety - whether I was working on the injured as a Clinical Kinesiologist, became injured through sports and life, or worked in prevention as an Ergonomic Health Specialist....I still believe prevention is the true effective strategy. There was a time when corporations actually budgeted for injury claims - those were the hay days....not anymore. Save money, save jobs, save bodies...this is the right thing to do!
Sciatica care
Keep that piriformis muscle loose to allow healthy space for your sciatic nerve. Here is how:
Sit on a chair cross your legs (ankle on opposite knee), keep a tall posture, move your chest forward until you fee a stretch in the buttocks area, hold for at least 20 s. Same pose in lying down - see picture.
Happy Sciatica!
