In Episode 57 of Back At It with Dr. Decompression, Dr. JD Dudum provides a comprehensive guide to overcoming sciatica with a three-phase approach.  Phase 1 focuses on at-home remedies, including movement, specific exercises like glute stretches, cat-cow, and a modified McKenzie protocol, and recommended supplements such as B-complex for nerve health, turmeric for inflammation, magnesium glycinate for calming nerves, and bromelain for swelling. Dr. Dudum also shares tips for sleeping positions to alleviate pain. Phase 2 involves seeking professional help from chiropractors, physical therapists, or acupuncturists to address alignment issues and reduce inflammation, as demonstrated by a successful case study.  Phase 3 highlights spinal decompression therapy as a last resort, emphasizing the importance of an MRI to confirm the diagnosis and tailor treatment. With this structured plan, Dr. Dudum reassures listeners that 99% of sciatica cases can be resolved without surgery, injections, or medications. 0:00 - Introduction to sciatica and its symptoms 1:30 - Phase 1: At-home remedies, including walking, exercises, and supplements 4:50 - Exercises for sciatica: glute stretches, cat-cow, and McKenzie protocol 6:45 - Harvard study: differentiating sciatica from piriformis syndrome 8:10 - Supplements to reduce inflammation and support nerve health 9:45 - Phase 2: Seeking professional help with chiropractic care and alignment 12:20 - Phase 3: MRI and spinal decompression therapy explained 14:45 - Dr. Dudum's reassurance: overcoming sciatica without surgery #SciaticaRelief #BackPainSolutions #SpinalDecompression #NaturalPainRelief #ChiropracticCare #PhysicalTherapy #DecompressionTherapy #HealthTips #BackPainHelp
