POV: You’ve been stretching your lower back for months, but nobody’s checked how your hips move. 👀

What if you’ve been overlooking an important part of the problem?

💬 Comment VIRAL and follow for my most viral hip mobility stretch.

💬 Comment HIPS for my hip flexor stretch.

💬 Comment EASY for my beginner-friendly lying-down hip stretch.

📍 A chiropractor sharing simple exercises for back pain, stiff hips and better movement.

Here’s what most people don’t realise.

Your lower back and hips work together when you bend, twist and walk.

Your lumbar spine has relatively limited rotation, while your hips allow much greater movement.

Research suggests that people with lower back pain can have reduced hip mobility, although that doesn’t mean stiff hips are always the cause (Prather et al., 2017).

The takeaway?

If your lower back keeps bothering you, don’t just focus on stretching your spine.

✅ Improve hip rotation.
✅ Strengthen your glutes.
✅ Build comfortable movement through your back and hips.

Your lower back needs movement too. The goal is better movement, not avoiding it.

Your pain travels down your leg. But what if the problem isn’t actually in your leg? 👀

A disc in your lower back and a muscle deep in your buttock can produce surprisingly similar symptoms.

So how do you tell them apart?

💬 Comment SNEEZE and I’ll send you my FREE 2-minute self-check to help you spot clues about whether your symptoms point more towards a disc or piriformis.

💬 Comment FLOSS and follow for my viral sciatic nerve flossing exercise.

💬 Comment PIRI and follow for my piriformis release.

💬 (Comment each word separately for the automation to work.)

📍 A chiropractor making sciatica and back pain easier to understand.

Here’s what most people don’t realise:

🍪 Disc-related sciatica: An irritated nerve root in your lower back can cause pain, tingling or numbness down your leg (NICE, NG59).

🍪 Piriformis-related pain: Irritation around the deep gluteal region can sometimes produce similar symptoms (Hopayian et al., 2010).

🍪 Disc degeneration: Even 80% of pain-free 50-year-olds have signs of disc degeneration on MRI (Brinjikji et al., 2015).

The takeaway? Where you feel pain isn’t always where it originates. And an MRI finding doesn’t automatically explain your symptoms.

A self-check can offer clues, but it can’t confirm a diagnosis.

📤 Send this to someone struggling with sciatica.

📌 DISCLAIMER: Educational only, not medical advice. Seek urgent assessment for new bladder/bowel dysfunction, saddle numbness or progressive leg weakness.

You keep stretching your hamstrings, but they never seem to loosen up. What if the muscle isn’t the whole problem?

Sometimes that tight feeling can involve something most people overlook. 👀

💬 Comment SNEEZE and I’ll send you my free 2-minute self-check to help you understand whether your symptoms point more towards a disc or piriformis.

💬 Comment FLOSS and follow for my viral sciatic nerve flossing exercise.

💬 Comment PIRI and follow for my viral piriformis release.

📍 A chiropractor sharing simple exercises and releases for back pain, sciatica and tight hips.

Here’s what most people don’t realise.

Not every tight hamstring is simply a short muscle.

Sometimes the sciatic nerve is sensitive to movement, which can contribute to that pulling sensation down the back of your leg.

And stretching harder isn’t always the answer.

Research combining 20 clinical trials found that neural mobilisation can reduce pain and disability in people with lumbar radiculopathy, although results varied between studies (Lin et al., 2023).

That’s where sciatic nerve flossing comes in.

Instead of holding a hard stretch, you use gentle, repeated movements that encourage the nerve to move relative to surrounding tissues.

Keep it comfortable. Stop if pain travels further down your leg or numbness and tingling increase.

And remember, not every tight hamstring is a nerve problem either.

📌 DISCLAIMER: Educational only, not medical advice. Sciatica has different causes and this exercise isn’t suitable for everyone. Persistent or worsening neurological symptoms should be assessed.
