Question
I'm a 57 yr old male in good shape. I've had sciatic nerve pain going from my rightside from my  buttocks and down my leg for 5 months. It affects the rt outside of my knee & calf also. Hurts most when sitting or trying to walk after sitting or lying down. Although it has improved slightly over time, it still is a big nuisance. I can't run anymore. Please give me any suggestions. Thanks

Hanna Somatic Educatio Hi, Roger.

Basic suggestion:

See my entry on the condition.  Two common forms of sciatica exist, and both are brain-muscle conditioning problems that can be resolved fairly quickly with the correct (but not the standard) approach.
