Yoga helped so much. You can get into that butt area and stretch that muscle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talk-to-me-about-sciatica-pain#post-2089110 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 19:39:35 +0000 Mrs.Pinecone316 2089110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have sciatica off and on. I ended up getting written out of work early for it since I am a nurse and on my feet a lot which was so painful. I went to a chiropractor once and hated the whole experience but I know it has helped others. I have been lucky where if I have a bad day the next day I wake up and don't feel it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talk-to-me-about-sciatica-pain#post-2087999 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 07:20:57 +0000 blackbird 2087999@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have awful sciatica! I see a chiro who specializes in ART-it's like absurd deep tissue manipulation and its been amazing for me. My insurance bills it as part chiro and part PT to give you an idea. You can find a provider on the ART website! Active release is something massage therapists do sometimes, too, but the sciatic nerve is very deep! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talk-to-me-about-sciatica-pain#post-2087984 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 06:51:30 +0000 singingbee 2087984@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyPenguinXO: It sounds like mIne. I'd always be massaging my left butt cheek. :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talk-to-me-about-sciatica-pain#post-2087923 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 00:13:41 +0000 Mrs Spoon 2087923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Started having sciatica just after 6 months. Soooo painful. I used a combo of acupuncture and chiro to find relief. Continued to see a chiro until about 10 weeks post-partum. Never thought I would go to a chiro but it was such a relief. Just make sure to go to someone with experience with pregnant women. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talk-to-me-about-sciatica-pain#post-2087887 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 23:17:14 +0000 BabyPenguinXO 2087887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@singingbee: does what im having sound like sciatica? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talk-to-me-about-sciatica-pain#post-2087886 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 23:16:48 +0000 BabyPenguinXO 2087886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BeachMama: my only hesitation with a PT is I had a very similar pain in my upper back and saw one for 3 months PP with my son. 2 chiro visits and it was fixed so I feel like the PT was worthless. I was going 2-3 times a week! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talk-to-me-about-sciatica-pain#post-2087873 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 22:55:02 +0000 BeachMama 2087873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd see a physical therapist. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talk-to-me-about-sciatica-pain#post-2087870 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 22:52:58 +0000 singingbee 2087870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had sciatic nerve pain and I had to get massages weekly from 15 weeks until I had her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talk-to-me-about-sciatica-pain#post-2087812 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 22:09:10 +0000 BabyPenguinXO 2087812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@loki: wah yeah if it requires me to get on the floor it ain't happening. I'll never get back up. Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talk-to-me-about-sciatica-pain#post-2087800 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 21:54:53 +0000 loki 2087800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought I had sciatica but it ended up being sacroilial joint pain. Apparently it's commonly mistaken for sciatica. I went to physio and she gave me a bunch of exercises but I didn't keep them up so can't speak for whether or not it would've worked. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talk-to-me-about-sciatica-pain#post-2087780 Thu, 26 Feb 2015 21:40:51 +0000 BabyPenguinXO 2087780@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was having irregular sharp pains in the top of my butt cheeks. Recently the left side started to have a more constsnt pulling feeling.</p> <p>Now, it's a sharp stabbing pain all day everyday. Trying to walk kills me. Getting upstairs with my toddler is crippling. I have scoliosis. I had surgery for it in 9th grade but I have a mild curve still.</p> <p>Is this sciatica? Can I see a chiro? A masseuse? Please say masseuse!!! </p>
