If you deal with sciatic nerve pain, you know that it can strike at any time, no warning needed.
Sometimes it feels like sciatica steals pieces of your life from you.
Sure, missing work may not be that traumatic (unless you are losing money because of it).
But when you miss dates, going to the amusement park with your kid, trips with family or friends, it is a whole other ball game.
Have no fear, sciatic sufferers.
We have a secret tip that will get you back on your feet in no time.
Sciatic Nerve Pain Relief on your back: This exercise will not only help to ease your pain, it will also help to tighten those stubborn lower ab muscles.
Not only are you attacking your pain, you are getting a nice workout too.

1. Lie on your back
2. Bring your knees to your chest as much as you can - (don't be a superhero, it this hurts too bad, stop doing it).
   Basically what you are doing here is using your arms as stability and lifting your booty off of the floor.
    
3. While your knees are in your chest, use your abs to slightly lift that booty off of the ground

If you are feeling brave, you can aim for 4 sets of 10 with 15 seconds rest between sets.
This should be your goal.
Even if you aren't able to do all 4 sets - don't feel bad, neither was I the first time - if you can pull it off, it should really help to take the edge off for you.
The most important thing is not to find a neutral ground between easing the flare without pushing yourself to the point of further upsetting your sciatic nerve pain.
If the booty lift does not give you the relief that you are looking for, you might also find relief in finding another way to get the pressure off of your back.
Sciatica is caused when the sciatic nerve, or muscles around the sciatic nerve, is angered.
Taking pressure off of that nerve will give you some well needed relief.
Even something as simple as laying on your stomach for awhile may be just what you need to get some relief.
