If you're over 50 and dealing with sciatica, you've probably discovered that not every exercise you find online helps.
In fact, some stretches can actually make your symptoms worse.
One of the reasons is that sciatica at 50 is often different from sciatica at 30. As we get older, our spinal discs and joints naturally change, which means the exercises that work well for a younger person with a fresh disc injury may not always be the best choice later in life.
In the video below, I demonstrate three simple exercises I regularly recommend to patients over 50, along with one common stretch I'd suggest approaching with caution.
