what are some natural therapies for sciatica?

Accepted Answer

Stretch: One of my favorite treatments for sciatica(as i tell all my affected patients) is as follows:  lay on your bed on your tummy; and position the affected side as close to the edge of your bed as you can get.  Now simply allow your leg (not you!) to slide off; this will create gentle but effective traction on the pyriformis muscle which should relieve your sciatic nerve impingement.
