As you can from the diagram opposite, the sciatic nerve is a large nerve which we use all our life and which can develop problems, resulting in pain or compression if there is a prolapsed disc.

No practitioner can provide a miracle cure, so those suffering from sciatic nerve pain must be patient. Unfortunately some people don’t look after their bodies, assuming that the doctor/nurse/physiotherapist/chiropracter can heal them quickly.

What do you think? I would appreciate hearing your views.
