Be a proactive partner in your backcare.
1. Kill the monster while it's a baby! Or in other words tackle any sciatic or back pain issues when they happen and while they are minor.
2. Ask good back pain/back care relief questions of the professionals.
3. Learn how your body and your back works. Take responsibility. It is after all your back.
4. Keep doing the same things you will produce the same results. GIve any back pain relief treatments a fair chance but dont keep doing back pain releif treatments that are not working for you. Listen to your body.
5. Focusing on the negative and what you can't do makes it worse, focus on the positive and what you can do.
Listen to your body.
6. No one cares about your back like you do. YOU have to take control of your back pain relief.
7. Before deciding if it is for you ask what the root cause of your back problem is and how they intend to treat you. Ask what physical assessments they will do and what the assessments can tell them about your back condition. Don't commit to long term treatment until you know it helps you.
8. NEVER, ever give up looking for a solution to your back pain!
9. Nothing changes until something moves.
10. Educate yourself and believe you can beat this thing.

Heal and Soothe
Heal and Soothe:A Natural Anti Inflammatory
If you are suffering from back pain and sciatica and having to take medications, or if you can't take medications due to side effects you may want to consider investigating Heal and Soothe.
Unfortunately, sometimes you end up on a treadmill of prescription after prescription for medicine that sometimes have side effects which are worse than the thing they are supposed to help.
The good news is, nature has it's own solutions to all of the ailments most of us suffer from and sciatic pain is no different.
After years of research and testing, The Healthy Back Institute created Heal n Soothe and it includes what they believe is the best combination of enzymes and herbs that have been proven to fight off inflammation and reduce pain.
- Heal -n- Soothe
- I am honest with you and I only recently used this for my after my wisdom tooth extraction operation!
I didn't use this while I was in the throes of back pain and sciatica, mainly because I did not know about it back then! Painkillers and anti inflammatory meds made me sick so I couldnt take them and just got by the best I could; not a pleasant time.
However when I had my wisdom tooth out recently the extraction site was very inflamed and again I couldnt take anti inflammatory medication so I thought of heal and Soothe Happily for me they really helped for things to heal up more quickly and the pain seemed to diminish too.
Like most things some things will work better for some people better than others and you need to look into this to see if it will suit you.
More detailed information about Heal and Soothe is availalable by following the link.

- LOSE THE BACK PAIN SYSTEM
- The "Lose the Back Pain System" was developed by massage therapist, Steve Hefferon and fitness trainer, Jesse Cannone with doctors, chiropractors, physical therapists and other healthcare professionals...
The system helps you, (without you having to have a degree in biology, physiology etc!!) understand back pain, explains the concept of muscle imbalances, shows you how to do self assessments,which corrective exercises to do and how to do them. There is also a great support service.
What do you get?
The most up to date version of the "lose the back pain system" has been available since Aug 2006
DVD 1 is very educational detailing information about muscle imbalances and covers the assessments. The self assessments are a key aspect to the program because you identify what muscle imbalances you have and then can see which corrective exercises you will need to follow.
DVD 2 All of the stretches and exercises in the system are demonstrated by Steve and Jesse themselves. This makes it very easy for you to check your form and make sure you are doing them as they should be done.
Three audio CDs which introduce the whole concept and approach, and discuss pain reduction strategies you can use to help you manage your pain.
If you have been diagnosed with a specific condition such as herniated disc, sciatica etc. the third CD covers specific recommendations, techniques and treatments in addition to addressing your muscle imbalances.
The Lose the Back Pain System also includes;
A Reference Manual, including photos and instructions, and pain reduction strategies.
A Personal Workbook for you to create your custom treatment plan.
Personal Support(Optional) to help you help yourself get the most out of the program.
The basic premise of the system is that it addresses the cause and the symptoms of back pain, the cause often being muscle imbalances.
Yes there are a lot of books around on stretching, but the big difference here is that you learn why muscle imbalances are so important , which muscles need to be stretched and which muscles need to be strengthened , then you get a step by step guide on which exercises to do and how.
"Take away the cause, and the effect ceases"
(Miguel De Cervantes in Anthony Robbins Awaken the giant within)

It is especially helpful when talking with professionals as you both then are talking from the same scale and can see how you are progressing.
