This class targets the hamstrings, hips, and glutes with a gentle sequence of stretches, to release tension and promote flexibility in these key areas. Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve (the longest nerve in the body) becomes irritated or compressed, often causing pain, tingling, or numbness in the lower back, hips, and legs. By increasing flexibility, reducing tension, and improving mobility in these areas, this class may help to alleviate sciatica symptoms. Please note that this class is not a substitute for medical advice. It’s important to consult a medical professional to determine the root cause of your sciatica and develop an appropriate treatment plan.
