Sciatica pain is not always a tight hamstring problem. Aggressive stretching may irritate the sciatic nerve and worsen leg pain. In this video, Vijay Kulasekharan, a Registered Physiotherapist at Family-Physio® in Edmonton, explains why sciatic nerve pain often responds better to gentle nerve-gliding exercises than to forceful hamstring stretching. The sciatic nerve runs from the lower back through the buttock and down the leg. When it becomes irritated or sensitive, it may not move smoothly through the surrounding tissues. Nerve gliding, also called nerve flossing, helps restore sciatic nerve mobility safely without overstressing the nerve. In this video, you’ll learn: ✅ Why sciatica is often a nerve mobility problem ✅ Why aggressive hamstring stretching can worsen sciatic nerve pain ✅ How nerve gliding exercises help reduce nerve sensitivity ✅ Seated sciatic nerve glide ✅ Supine nerve flossing ✅ Slump correction posture drill ✅ How to know if your pain is nerve-related ✅ When to seek physiotherapy for sciatica If you have persistent leg pain, numbness, tingling, weakness, or pain below the knee, a physiotherapy assessment can help identify the cause and guide the right treatment safely. 📍 Family-Physio Clinic 📞 Phone: (825) 601-5787 🌐 Website: https://www.physio.family/ 📍 Address: 7408 139 Ave NW G104, Edmonton, AB T5C 3H7, Canada Clinic Hours: Monday – Friday: 9:00 AM – 7:00 PM Saturday: 9:00 AM – 12:30 PM 👍 If this video helped you, please like, comment, subscribe, and share it with someone dealing with sciatica or leg pain. 💬 Comment below: Does your sciatic pain feel worse with sitting, stretching, or bending? #sciaticaexercises #sciaticnervepain #legpainrelief #backpainphysiotherapy #sciaticarelief #physiotherapy #homeexercises #painrelief #gentlestretching #sciaticatreatment #lowerbackpain #healthyposture #mobilityexercises #painmanagement #wellnessjourney #physicaltherapy #massage #exercise #healthtips #healtheducation #relaxation #healthylifestyle #healthy #healthcare #selfcare #health #healthyliving #healing #healingjourney #Edmontonphysio #familyphysio
