Many programs claim they have exercises to stop sciatica and back pain. But, when you begin to strip away the core elements of their programs, the exercises tend to be generic, nonspecific activities that are both taught and performed wrong.

It is estimated that over 60% of women will experience sciatica and/or back pain during or after sexual activity. The typical exercises prescribed tend to be the general, nonspecific exercises that do nothing to address the underlying cause of a woman’s symptoms, keeping her sexually sidelined and her partner frustrated.

There are many reasons why a woman will experience sciatica and back pain during sexual activity. Most of these reasons are well outside of my expertise. However, I am well qualified to comment on mechanical dysfunction of the pelvis - specifically sacroiliac joint dysfunction - as a potential cause of pain with sexual activity.

To that end, I put together a short video for you where I discuss two exercises that may help reduce or eliminate sciatica and back pain during or after sexual intercourse. i hope you find it helpful.

I’d really like your feedback on this video. Please feel free to ask a question or offer a comment by filling out the form below.

Why Do I Have Back Pain During Sexual Intercourse?

Question:
I’m married and honestly,before the diagnosis that I got two slight herniated discs on my lumbar, my back gets sore every time I have sexual intercourse with my husband. Do you think the pain comes from the said diagnosis? If so, could you give me advice of what I should and shouldn’t do during sexual intercourse to avoid the pain or in order not to aggravate my back condition? My second question is, is it risky for me to get pregnant since I’m having this kind of problem?

Is Back Surgery My Only Answer?

Question:
If you looked at my MRI and xray, would you HONESTLY tell me if you think surgery is now my only alternative? Would you really give me a free phone consultation? I’m taking vicodin everyday, and want to quit, but pain is too much. I see a chiropractor 1 to 3 times weekly. Tried traction and inversion tables.

Best Exercises To Reduce Low Back Pain For People With A Sway Back

Question:
What are the best exercises to reduce lower back pain when you have a sway back?

Answer:
By far and away, this is positively the best exercise to reduce back pain if you have a sway back:

Most people try to treat sway back without ever addressing the psoas muscle. This is a huge mistake and will only lead to frustration because nothing is changing. Obviously, stretching the psoas isn’t the only thing that needs to be done, but it’s the first thing that needs to be done.

Low Back Pain Treatment: The Role of Physical Therapy

Low back pain treatment options can be confusing. Often times treatment is not specific and falls in to the “over the counter” methodology, meaning that the treatment approach is directed towards reducing symptoms and not addressing the actual problem.

Having observed the low back pain treatment methods used by physical therapists over the past 26 years, I am of the firm opinion that the vast majority of physical therapists have no business treating low back pain. Why? Because most physical therapists don’t have the advanced training necessary to evaluate a patient with low back pain effectively much less treat the underlying cause of the problem. The sad truth is that most physical therapists treat patients with low back pain symptomatically.

There are exceptions, however, and not all physical therapists are the same. Here’s an interview with a physical therapist who represents the exception. Listen carefully to how he approaches patient care. It’s what the role of a physical therapist treating back pain should be.

Low Back Pain: When Is Back Surgery Necessary?

Low back pain has reached epidemic proportions in the United States. It’s estimated that as high as 80% of the population will experience low back pain at some point in their life. The good news is that most of these back pain episodes will resolve on their own and never require medical intervention.

The bad news is that despite considerable advancements in the treatment of low back pain, a definitive reason for the onset of symptoms continues to elude even the most skilled practitioners. I am often asked by patients if I think they will require surgery and my answer is always the same — probably not.

In my experience, only about 10% of low back pain sufferers will require surgery. Meaning 90% of people suffering with back pain can be helped with conservative measures. Despite this fact, however, the “surgery question” still comes up.

I came across this interview with a neurosurgeon I thought might shed some light on what goes into making a surgery decision for treating low back pain. I think you’ll find it very informative.

As you learned in this interview, surgery IS NOT necessarily the first or best alternative in managing low back pain. People experiencing back pain should look into more conservative measures first before even entertaining the notion of back surgery.

The Erase Your Back Pain program is an excellent alternative to treating low back pain and has an established track record of getting results where other back pain treatment methods have failed. Learn more here: Back Pain Relief
