A very helpful beginner yoga. I've been practicing this along with Joelle's other sciatica video (20 minutes) and her lazy glutes video, doing one of them morning and evening for about a month. My sciatica pain is now much less through out the day. I notice a difference now that my glutes are toned up a bit. They support my sacrum movements now.

@Sarah_Sunshine1 2 года назад

Hi Joelle, I just found you the other day. I love your exercises for injuries, and add them to my yoga practices. I just would like to comment on one thing. When in pain I can´t do lateral moves or anything to strengthen the area. I tried that in the last weeks and that has exacerbated my pain and tightness to an extreme. I can´t even sit anymore. Would you recommend doing those exercises in pain-free times, or is it just me? I don´t have anything fractured as I am aware. I was diagnosed with 2 prolapses, trochanteric bursitis (better), and sciatica. Although I´m sure it´s the IT band/piriformis as well. Thank you so much for your videos. :-)

@YogawithJoelle 2 года назад

Hi Sarah, welcome and happy to have you with us! I can't responsibly comment on specific cases without knowing you, your body, or your habits, but what I always recommend is not to go TOWARDS pain or force anything that doesn't feel right. You might like to try this side body pain practice to see how it feels in your body, and that could help determine if rest may be the best thing for now: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nGwrurxx9Sg.html

As a result, all my aches and mains have made me irritable and somewhat low. Today, I did this set of stretches for the first time. The instant relief from my sciatica and lower back made me tear with relief. I thank you so much!

@josephbrown7502 2 года назад

It is ironic that so many of these videos for syndromes of the hips involve forward fold with legs out front, which is only available to highly flexible people...

@YogawithJoelle 2 года назад

Not necessarily! Folding forward within your own range to feel the stretch can be very beneficial regardless of how far you go.

@carolnewman2974 3 года назад

I found the release as I did the moves and then had more discomfort. I am having sciatica issues UGH. I will continue to stretch and release strengthen my core. Hoping it improves and goes away :-) Thanks so much

Great job Carol! This can be very frustrating and sometimes it'll take the body a little longer to start trusting and releasing. Good on you for listening to yourself and for the self-care, I truly hope you continue to feel better!

@asharamkeesoon2305 4 дня назад

Hi Joelle, can this routine be done if one has SI joint issues as well? I have been doing your SI joint practise and it’s great. Thank you so much

@YogawithJoelle 3 дня назад

I don't see a firm reason why not, but keep in mind that I don't know you or your body, nor what your SI joint issues are, so ultimately you and your doctor are the best people to answer this question. I'm glad you're enjoying the practices!

I actually have quite a few videos where I'm speaking live now (I didn't have a good microphone before), for example the 7-day beginner's challenge from the beginning of this year, or the 5-day hip challenge from a few months back. Different people seem to like one or the other so I'll probably continue to do a mix going forward! 😉

I struggle with cramps in my feet when doing pigeon poses or anything that has me stretching my feet.Can you suggest a solution

@YogawithJoelle Год назад

That's not unusual, you're not alone! Our feet tend to spend so much time locked in shoes that when we first start stretching them into poses they're not used to, they get "confused." It's basically the body not knowing what you want it to do because it hasn't done that before. For most of us they'll go away with time and practice, but in the meantime I suggest either not going quite so far into the stretch, or coming out of it if it feels like too much and taking a few ankle circles. You can also work on strengthening the little muscles in your feet with practices like this one: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9GiLEupJq40.html

@bebobalula Год назад

Joëlle, I have a question. I've fought with tight hips and sciatica problems especially in my left side for the last 40 years (I'm turning 62 this year). Until a few months ago I always began my hips and piriformis routine with stretching my left side, then stretched my right side, and the took another round with my left side trying to make it as flexible as my right side, but actually with very little effect. Shortly after new year this year I made an experiment and began to stretch my right side first to see, if this would effect my left side. It certainly did! Somehow working with my right side first makes the left side relaxe and way more easy to work with. I'm very suprised, cause no one has ever told me about this. After 40 years with stiff hips causing back pain and knee problems, my left side has suddenly become way more flexible than ever and is still progressing. Joëlle, do have an idea, why this approach is so effective and works so well on the muscles and nerves, than one can feel it almost immediately during a stretching routine?

@YogawithJoelle Год назад

That's a great question and great observation about yourself. Pain, flexibility, and stretching actually have more to do with the nervous system and the brain than they do with the body, funnily enough. So sometimes working the "less affected" side of the body first will help the brain allow the body to relax more when we then stretch the "difficult" side afterwards, because it knows what's coming and it's already had a chance to see that, "hey, that wasn't so bad." I hope that made sense, it's a complex answer to sum up in a few sentence, but we explore it much more in my Focusing on Flexibility workshop if you're interested in diving deeper: tinyurl.com/4adzf8d4 😉

I enjoyed your video. As a 67 year old male who has had both knees replaced my range of motion and flexibility is limited. I am suffering from Sciatica/Piriformis pain. Very debilitating.

I am so sorry to hear that! I hope you're doing well!! 🙏 🙏

Hope these movements are bringing you ease and comfort. Hopefully, with consistency they will give you all you need from them.

@anthonyguzek8262 Месяц назад

Thank you for your concern. These moves are for someone who isn’t suffering great pain. How can I twist and bend like a pretzel when everything in the hip/groin/thigh area screams pain. I’ve decided to get a MRI and a hip injection on 8/16. I can barely walk.

Superb Yoga for Sciatica 👍👍🙏🙏👏👏☺

Does anyone else have problems with anything moving their legs with sciatica? I get terrible cramps so can't do most stretches

@YogawithJoelle Год назад

You may like to start with a gentle practice to relax your legs, for example a 10 min legs up the wall class like this one: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cICYAEAgVbs.html After that, your legs may feel more prepared to take on some stretches and movements that they aren't used to. I hope that helps!

It’s very difficult for me to get into that pigeon stretch it flares up the pain pretty badly. Should I be feeling pain or should I stop and try something different?

@YogawithJoelle 3 месяца назад

I'd say you never "should" be feeling pain, so that might just not be the right stretch for your body at this moment. Feel free to take a different pose instead, for example lying on your back and crossing one knee or ankle over the opposite knee, which will target a similar area as pigeon stretch. Or you can simply skip it entirely and meet us in the next pose!

@@YogawithJoelle I will definitely try that thank you! Also the rest of your video helped a great deal I forgot to mention that! I woke up today in a lot less pain 💕
