5 Stretches to Relieve Sciatica Pain

Stress is held in the body and one of the most common injuries to flare up when we’re stressed tends to be sciatica, which if you know of you also know it isn’t fun.

I wanted to share 5 of my favorite stretches you can do when you’re experiencing sciatica pain:

• Figure four stretch lying down (leg up vs leg down which is more intense)

• Seated upright knee to opposite shoulder stretch

• Flat pigeon

• Upright pigeon (less intense)

• Seated figure 4 in a chair

If you’re super tight or in a lot of pain, I’d give the less intense stretches a shot first and then try the more intense versions.
