You have to Lose the Back Pain...and You CAN

You have to Lose The Back Pain...and You CAN!

Back pain and sciatic pain are serious health problems on their own, but can also lead to and worsen many other illnesses; from obesity to depression. Plus their awful impact on quality and enjoyment of life means you really have to do whatever it takes heal these conditions, fast. After viewing The Healthy Back Institute's Lose The Back Pain System, all I can say is that it is truly revolutionary in the treatment and curing of back pain and sciatica. This dedicated team of doctors, physical therapists, chiropractors, massage therapists and personal trainers have really put together a complete package.

The system teaches you how to self-assess your specific conditions and how to correct it. No more need to blow big bucks on some "specialist" just to get the right diagnosis - hopefully. One of the sweetest aspects of this self-assessment is that it takes away the guesswork. The very first step involves having someone take pictures of your posture in several different specified positions and angles. This is used in determining precisely which stretches and exercises should be performed to CORRECT the problem. All the corrective exercises and stretches are demonstrated in the detail by the presenters in the 2 DVDs and Manual.

That is the whole intention of this system: to CORRECT the CAUSE of the back pain or sciatica. Most back pain and sciatic pain is caused by muscle imbalances - basically where one muscle is excessively stronger than its "corresponding" muscle - which leads to dysfunctional compensation in that area of the body. Nerves end up seriously irritated or injured - therefore Pain. The expert-designed exercises and stretches that you will perform are intended to correct those imbalances to get rid of your pain.

There are also two CDs which outline how to get the best results out of the system; strategies to quickly reduce your pain so you can function day-to-day and properly follow the system for permanent healing; and condition-specific recommendations.

What most doctors recommend when you tell them you have back pain is to take dangerous addictive muscle relaxers and pain killers that only mask the problem. Does that sound "safe and effective" to you? Does that approach even make sense? It never did to me. And in some cases back pain sufferers get "ordered" into surgery. Only problem is from most of the post-surgery patients I've seen, most haven't gotten lasting relief, if any pain relief at all. Oftentimes they've just traded one problem for another.

Therefore, it is my recommendation that anyone with back pain, piriformis pain, or any form of sciatica try the Lose The Back Pain System by The Healthy Back Institute team of professionals. It is a natural way of correcting your condition and becoming pain free.

Managing Your Back Pain or Sciatica...Or ENDING It?

Why your back still hurts...

Please read every word of this important message below from my friend Jesse Cannone, CFT, CPRS, CSPN, co-founder of The Healthy Back Institute. It could very well change your life...

To a pain-free 2012,
Jevaughn Brown

Do You Want to “Manage” Your Back Pain or Sciatica… or End It?

Most doctors have no idea how to cure back pain or piriformis pain. So they “manage” it.

They tell you to rest and give you painkillers or muscle relaxers. But those pills just mask your pain. So when you stop taking them, it comes roaring back - because it never really left...

That’s why you have to go back to the doctor… or chiropractor… or acupuncturist… over and over again. They help you feel better – for a while – but they don’t solve the real problem.

Wouldn’t you rather get rid of your back pain and/or piriformis pain for good rather for now?

Chances are, you can.

My name is Jesse Cannone. As a physical trainer, I’ve worked with thousands of people suffering with back pain. And I’ve personally been a back pain sufferer.

Nothing my doctors did helped for long. But thanks to a chance meeting at a fitness seminar, I’ve been pain-free for over a decade.

What I’ve learned since then could fill a book. In fact, it has. And I’d like to send you a copy of my brand new “Expanded and Updated” book, The 7-Day Back Pain Cure, absolutely FREE!

Click Here To Secure Your Free Copy Now

There are over 100 new pages of fresh material in this new beefed-up version of my book that has already helped over 155,000 people find relief from the shackles of back pain and all forms of sciatica, such as the very common piriformis pain syndrome.

Years of tireless study have taught me three important truths:

1. Most so-called “experts” – including doctors – don’t understand the true causes of back pain and piriformis pain.

2. Most back pain treatments are like sticking your finger in the dike.You may stop the leak for a little while...but they do nothing to solve the real problem.

3. Virtually everyone can ease their pain significantly. And most people can end it for good.

In The 7-Day Back Pain Cure, you’ll discover the true causes of back pain and piriformis pain… little-known ways to fix what’s wrong… and simple steps you can take to stop your pain once and for all.

As mentioned earlier, I’ve just finished a complete revision – with over 100 pages of new material – so this is the most up-to-date information you can get. Plus, I’ve added several brand-new chapters on sleep, travel and more.

Find out why conventional treatments are mostly doomed to fail...why surgeries are often just a shot in the dark - that misses… and how something as simple as (proper) stretching can work where medical treatments have failed.

The 7-Day Back Pain Cure is your road map to a pain-free life.

And it’s yours FREE right here. (Just pay a small shipping and handling charge.) In fact, you can even order extra copies for your friends and family.

Why free? Because I understand what it’s like to suffer with back pain that just won’t go away. To miss out on life because one false move could put you on the sidelines for weeks.

Now I’m living every day to its fullest – pain free. And you could be, too.

To get started, just click here for your FREE copy of The 7-Day Back Pain Cure.

Imagine what you’ll do when your back is wracked by pain; when your buttocks and thighs don’t ache
with piriformis pain anymore. Walk… garden… dance… play tennis... hike... The sky’s the limit.

And it all starts with your FREE copy of The 7-Day Back Pain Cure.

Wishing you the best,

Jesse Cannone, CFT, CPRS, CSPN

Back Pain's Dark Link to Torture? Scary But True...

Back Pain, Sleep and Torture


Did you know that one of the simplest, most reliable, most viciously mind-altering types of torture is...

Sleep Deprivation!

 It's a standard tactic used by militaries
and government agencies the world over. It's in the same league as "Waterboarding".

Both the notoriously brutal Soviet KGB
and the Japanese military favored using it during World War II in their prisoner camps to extract information.

To paraphrase John Schlapobersky, consultant psychotherapist to the Medical Foundation for Victims of Torture, and a victim of sleep deprivation torture in apartheid South Africa in the 1960's:

"Sleep deprivation causes hallucinations. It's like treating the victim with medications designed to make them psychotic. It causes people to lose their orientation in place and time. Depriving people of sleep is tampering with their equilibrium and sanity."

It's so brutal in fact that once they've felt its wrath, almost all victims will do, say, sign and swear to just about anything for a chance at uninterrupted sleep!

And here is why you should be very concerned about the implications of these facts...

You see, according to a new study by Hans P.A. Van Dongen, PhD, assistant professor of sleep and chronobiology at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, simply missing out on the recommend eight hours of nightly sleep for two weeks can cause "sleep debt" comparable to a sleep deprivation of two full nights.

And, if you only averaged four hours sleep a night for those two weeks, your brain reacts as though you haven't slept at all for 3 nights in a row.

Harvard researchers have even found that regularly getting too little sleep boosts heart disease risk. Earlier research has also linked consistent sleep loss with a higher risk of diabetes and obesity.

And to quote Van Dongen again:

"...the most worrisome part of this is these people don't realize how sleep-deprived they really are. When people are put through chronic sleep deprivation, there is an initial response where they say, 'OK, this is not optimal but I'll manage.' But after a few days of this, things are much worse than they realize."

Think about what that means... People actually become too tired to realize just how tired they are!

So they don't take the need to "pay off" their sleep debt (so to speak) and get back to a healthy sleep pattern seriously, and the vicious cycle continues. The result? More mental, emotional and physical trauma.

Here's the scary way this is all connected to back pain and sciatica: One of the biggest causes of sleep deprivation is chronic pain - such as the constant pain in your back that keeps you tossing and turning all night, struggling to find a comfortable position to relieve the pain and robbing you of a genuine good night's sleep!

That means that if you, like millions of others around the world, have persistent back pain and/or sciatic pain you're most likely also suffering from some degree of sleep deprivation... possibly without even realizing it.

But there is a way to break the cycle of pain and sleep deprivation in your life for FREE and help someone else in the process...

Strong Muscles Equal Pain? Who’s Winning The Tug Of War Within YOUR Body?

Strong Muscles Equal Pain? Who’s Winning The Tug Of War Within YOUR Body?

Right now, as you sit there reading this, there’s a relentless "battle" taking place inside your body.

In essence, what's happening is that your muscles are competing with each other in what you can think of as a game of “Tug of War.” Over time, some of your muscles grow
stronger and some grow weaker.

This “battle” persists until your muscles are so out of balance that they actually cause pain by one or the other of several different ways… including piriformis pain and back pain.

Believe it or not, this is the reason that having strong muscles - which are supposed to mean fitness and health - 
can actually hurt you. It’s not so much about the strength of the muscles involved as the balance between them.

If they’re out of balance, you end up in PAIN.

If this information is new to you, then you’re really going to love the rest of the book I wrote to you about a few days ago.

It’s called "The 7-Day Back Pain Cure"… written by Jesse Cannone, co-founder of The Healthy Back Institute.

In it, Jesse reveals some of the little-known secrets to reducing back pain… without drugs, injections or expensive surgeries, and for the most part without even having to leave your home.

Consider this the book the medical establishment DOESN’T want you to read, because it reveals the pain relief answers "they" don't want you to know about.

Right now, you can buy Jesse’s book on Amazon for $10.38.

Or…

You can visit the page below for simple instructions about how to get it MINUS that $10.38 price tag.

This is a very special book that finally unlocks secrets for dealing with back pain and sciatica that you won’t hear from your doctor or the mainstream medical world.

He used to get around by “hopping” on just one leg...


This definitely falls into the Strange But True” category: At one point in Jesse Cannone’s life, he basically got around by “hopping” on one leg... The funny thing is, he had no idea he was doing it!!



But he seriously suffered  because of it, made worse because he was so unconscious of how he was actually moving. Weird but true.



In fact, Jesse suffered from knee pain, scoliosis and back pain because of his problem.



Days before a scheduled surgery to (supposedly) help with the pain in his knee, Jesse discovered a secret that transformed his life forever.



And just seven days after discovering this secret, his knee pain was GONE. A short while after that, his scoliosis and back pain (in his mid-back - the part between his shoulder blades) disappeared as well.



Since the day Jesse first discovered this “secret,” he’s shared it with more than 50,000 people to help them deal with their pain - eliminating everything from upper back pain to piriformis pain and everything in between.



And the best part is, Jesse’s discovery has nothing to do with dangerous  drugs or expensive surgery!



Today, Jesse is making this “secret” available to you in his new book, The 7-Day Back Pain Cure”...



You can buy this right now on Amazon for $10.38 plus shipping and handling...



But please don’t buy it there.



Luckily for us Jesse’s arranged a much better way to get it (MINUS the $10.38 price tag) at the link I've included below.

If you or someone you know suffers from any type of back pain or sciatica, such as my "favorite" piriformis pain, you don’t want to miss this. I’m not sure how long it will be available like this, so seize the day and take a look right now:




To being pain-free,
Jevaughn Brown

P.S. This is actually version 2.0 of Jesse’s book. So it’s a LOT meatier than the first version. It really is an amazing resource...

Back Pain Relief and Sciatic Nerve Pain Relief Secret #3: Rest Your Body and Mind

The 3rd Secret To Back Pain Relief and Sciatic Nerve Pain Relief: Adequately Rest Your Body and Mind 

Can you remember a time when you were seriously stressed out, anxious, maybe even feeling overwhelmed? Do you remember how tense your muscles got? You could probably feel it most clearly in your shoulders. Yes, the mind-body connection is powerful: your state of mind (your stress levels basically) truly can damage the body. The fact is mental and emotional stress, regardless of the type or the reason for it, is a major cause of or contributor to back pain and sciatic nerve pain - even with more structural-based conditions like piriformis pain syndrome.


But if you allow it to, your body has an amazing power to handle pressure well and heal itself. You just need to give yourself the rest, relaxation and sleep you need for recovery.

But how can you make sure to consistently get the rest necessary to achieve sciatic nerve pain relief or back pain relief? I'm glad you asked…

Get Adequate Rest Throughout The Day
One big mistake many of us make is not taking breaks during the day. For example, sitting all day at work can cause piriformis pain and back pain, even spinal problems and more. If that's your situation, make it a habit to stand up, stretch or walk a little every half hour or so. On the flip side if you're on your feet all day, regularly sit down for a few minutes at a time.

You could also take a power nap for 15-30 minutes – however do NOT take a nap much longer than that; you'll start going into the deeper phases of the sleep cycle and wake up more groggy than rested. So a great habit to develop is to fit breaks or naps or both into your daily routine as is appropriate to your situation.



For many people though, their jobs require them to be sitting down for such long periods that even regular breaks don't bring much pain relief, or they just can't take enough breaks. Is this describing you, too? Or do you want to make sure this never becomes you? Then you need a chair that lets you sit and get your work done without aggravating your back pain or being struck from buttock to leg with sciatic nerve pain flare-ups. I recommend you check out this specially designed office chair and judge if it's right for you.

Daily Relaxation Techniques
All of us have many stresses coming at us in our lives. We deal with more stresses routinely than people in the past so now it's even more important to take the time to truly relax your body and your mind. Vegetating in front of the TV doesn't count by the way.

Some things you can do regularly to get some real relaxation include: sitting quietly on your porch enjoying the ambiance; meditating; taking walks while looking at things far away; doing yoga or Tai-Chi; going to the beach often if you can.

On top of these, one great relaxation technique to use is this easy breathing exercise:
Find a comfortable, quiet place where you won't be disturbed for a while. Sit naturally with your back straight without forcing it. Put your hands on your thighs or your lap and just leave them there. Close your eyes…

Now concentrate on your nostrils and notice the feel of the air as it passes through your nose as you inhale and exhale.


Relax your shoulders and chest and just breathe naturally, don't try to make yourself breathe more deeply, that will happen on its own. Keep paying attention to the sensation in your nose from your breathing.

Breathe in, breathe out. Notice that between your inhale and exhale there is a brief pause; just be aware of it.

Feel your body expand with each breathe in and contract with each breathe out.

It's that simple. But if you do if for 15-20 minutes you'll feel wonderfully reinvigorated. Do it for up to an hour and you'll be stunned with your high energy level throughout the day.

How To Get Enough Good Sleep:
The body heals, grows and builds up tissues primarily during deep sleep. Deep sleep is one part of the sleep cycle we go through at night, so the less sleep you get overall, the less time there is for deep sleep. If you're not getting enough of that deep sleep you basically handicap your body's efforts to heal itself of the inflammation that triggers sciatic nerve pain and back pain.

“You must get 8 hours of sleep every night” is an oversimplification - as with most things how much sleep different individuals need varies within a certain range. 6-9 hours of sleep per night is ideal.

Three Ways to Get Better Sleep
To get those 6-9 hours of sleep regularly it's critical that we don't fall victim to insomnia. And just as important is the quality of our sleep, not just the quantity. Below are 3 simple ways to overcome or avoid lack of sleep and poor quality sleep…

Warm feet carry you swiftly to sleep: You see, blood circulation is comparatively poorest in the feet. Cold feet has been found to cause people to wake up at night (among other things :-) ). A study conducted by Swiss sleep scientists proved that if your feet are warmer than room-temperature you will fall asleep faster. So what’s the easy solution? Wear socks to bed. No, that wasn’t a typo; I said socks. It may or may not be a fashion faux pas, but if this is a problem for you, keeping your feet warm this way can help you go to sleep and stay asleep. Whether you need back pain relief or sciatic nerve pain relief, this tip can help give your body the rest time it needs to heal the inflammation and injury at the root of your pain.

Eat your way to a good night's sleep: For better sleep, your last meal for the day/night should be high in protein. These foods supply your body with the amino acid L-tryptophan which enables the production of melatonin and serotonin, neurotransmitters (brain chemicals) necessary for quality sleep.

Take a powerful natural sleep aid: If getting enough sleep is a persistent, ongoing problem for you, consider using a natural sleep aid. These unique supplements are proven SAFE - unlike prescription sleep medications which I'm sure you'd heard the horror stories about - and full of ingredients proven through research and long history of use to allow people to finally get deep, quality sleep night after night. I recommend you try this one out for FREE here – it is recognized as one of the best formulations out there. FYI: the reason I recommend you try out a free bottle for starters is because not every sleep aid works for everybody. Each person has a unique body chemistry just as we all have unique fingerprints, and for a very tiny minority of people their body chemistry may not respond to this formulation. That's why I suggest you
try this sleep supplement free at no risk - and that's also how confident I am that this one will work for you given its outstanding track record.

Three Sleep-Killing Things to Avoid Right Before Bed
These common actions and habits rob you of a good night's sleep like a thief in the night (pardon the bad pun)…

Eating right before going to bed: In particular, avoid anything loaded with sugar or grains. This is important because such foods when digested rapidly flood your blood with glucose causing a “sugar high”, which forces your body to process all that sugar quickly. In doing this your blood sugar level drops too low for a while and that can wake you up and make it harder to get back to sleep. Also, during sleep your body redirects blood flow to your muscles and other organs for healing and recovery. Therefore it is best that the last food you eat for the night is several hours before bedtime so your body is not forced to digest food while you sleep; interfering with the healing process.

Watching TV or using the computer right before sleeping: This is bad because TV – both the content and the artificial light from the screen itself – stimulates parts of the brain and can disrupt hormone and neurotransmitter levels, making it really hard to fall asleep and/or to achieve healthy deep sleep. If you have a TV in your bedroom and habitually watch it just before going to sleep, you should seriously consider moving the TV to another room. If you use the computer almost right up to the moment you go to bed, try out getting off the computer an hour or so before going to bed and see if you fall asleep faster and wake up feeling better.

Drinking caffeine or alcohol: Drinking coffee or those “energy drinks” in the afternoon will continue to affect many people well into the night and make it harder to fall asleep. Definitely avoid drinking them after dark. Now alcohol does make people drowsy, but it's common for a person to wake up several hours later and be unable to go back to sleep. Most importantly, alcohol blocks you from getting into the deeper stages of sleep when all the healing you need if you have back pain, piriformis pain or other types of sciatic nerve pain happens...

Insufficient rest, relaxation and sleep makes it difficult, even impossible for us to cope with the mental stresses that we all face in some form daily without becoming stressed out. Insufficient rest harms the body directly, making it ineffective at healing and rejuvenating. Without enough rest/sleep and relaxation, tissue inflammation worsens and the body can't properly repair injuries, and these are two of the core causes of cases of sciatic nerve pain and back pain. Thus, regardless of whatever else you do, without using this third "secret" (get some rest), achieving back pain relief and sciatic nerve pain relief is practically impossible.

You've just read a variety of tips, techniques and strategies to ensure you effectively rest your body and mind. You, me, all of us MUST get adequate rest daily to be at our pain-free best. Look at your own life and behavior, see which points apply to you and use the techniques provided. 

Do you need a chair that helps relieve your piriformis pain or back pain instead of worsening it? 
Start doing the breathing exercise for 15 minutes every other day. 
Eat a high-protein low-sugar/starch dinner well before bedtime and don't eat again for the rest of the night. 
Use a safe and effective sleep supplement with zero side-effects to eliminate insomnia and wake up rested and energized every morning... Etc...

Use these tips and experience for yourself how easy enjoying the pain relief you need can be, among many other benefits.


Stay healthy my friends,

Fast Back Pain Relief and Sciatic Nerve Pain Relief Secret 2 - Stop Exercising

8 Secrets To Fast Back Pain Relief and Sciatic Nerve Pain Relief: Secret #2 - Stop Exercising

Regular exercise, ideally on a daily basis, is a critical part of a healthy lifestyle to achieve and maintain a healthy body and mind and long life. Being sedentary is not a good thing and as I've mentioned in previous posts, it can be one of the factors causing you to be in pain. For example, prolonged sitting on a daily basis over the years can lead to a shortened/tight piriformis muscle in the hip, leading to "piriformis pain", a common form of sciatica. 

Exercise is vital - But as we all know, everything has its appropriate time and place and there are exceptions to every rule. When you're suffering and need sciatic nerve pain relief and back pain relief, one is in a special situation. So the question is; Is continuing or starting to exercise a good idea when you have back pain and sciatic nerve pain?

Simply put - No. The common exercises people choose to do often make these pain conditions worse not better. For instance, do you like to go jogging or cycling? Unfortunately, as I discussed earlier in Muscle Imbalance - The Secret Source Of Piriformis Pain and Sciatica Back Pain, runners and bikers can wind up with piriformis syndrome too right along with the desk jockeys, because if they neglect to do the right stretches their piriformis muscle gets tight/inflexible as it gets stronger from exercise. Eventually it puts pressure on the sciatic nerve and so they get piriformis pain.

The above example illustrates why we need to be careful about what exercises we do when seeking sciatic nerve pain relief - We have to FIRST identify the physical dysfunctions that are creating the pain or else we can't know what will aggravate the problem. There are several potential causes to any case of back pain or sciatic nerve pain. Until you figure out what's the cause of the pain in your back, thigh or buttocks, you can't know if the exercise you're doing is just going to reinforce your pain. And the odds are very good that it will...


There are very easy tests you can do for yourself to find out what specific sciatic nerve pain condition or back pain condition (or both) you're suffering from. The self-assessment allows you to find out what the hidden root cause of your persistent pain is so you can move forward in eliminating it - You can learn it from this book available free when you click here. 

Exercising is a must. But sciatica and back pain are not forgiving conditions. It is usually wisest to take a break from all exercise until you determine the muscle imbalance and physical dysfunction your body is affected by and start eliminating it. You don't want to be jogging every day and tightening your already-tight piriformis that's giving you sciatica; or doing heavy weightlifting and disturbing a herniated disc even more and so on.

Treat yourself as a good doctor treats you: “First Do No Harm.” The muscle imbalances and related dysfunctions contributing to the pain you're going through developed over time around factors like which muscles you naturally favor when you walk and stand;
what injuries you've had; what sports you played; what exercise program you follow; how you sit; how long you sit on average... So we have to hit pause so to speak on our physical activities for a little while and trace what got us here and is keeping us here in pain and get rid of it.

When you learn the true nature of your personal case of sciatic nerve pain/back pain by identifying the muscle imbalances behind it, then you can find out what exercise you can do and what exercise you can't do (for now) to become pain free fast...

Inside The 7-Day Back Pain Cure book you will find instructions on how to simply, easily do a FULL assessment on yourself to correctly identify your body's imbalances. Based on that you're then given a personalized treatment plan for permanently fixing them. Without drugs, without surgery, without having to spending a lot of money on some specialist.

This sciatic nerve pain relief and back pain relief breakthrough is real physical book you can buy on Amazon, but you can get it here FREE instead. You just cover the shipping and handling - part of which actually goes to either Habitat For Humanity or Kiva.org by your choice. 


I encourage you to check out this worldwide "bestseller" and grab a copy while it's still being given away Free. Learn now, as I did, how to get back pain relief and sciatic nerve pain relief fast...

8 Secrets To Fast Back Pain Relief and Sciatic Nerve Pain Relief Part 1 - Inflammation


Your number one priority if you want to get back pain relief or sciatic nerve pain relief is to control inflammation in your body. So why is this true and what is inflammation?...

Research shows that inflammation is the #1 (biochemical) “cause” of pain in the body. To be more specific though, inflammation is NOT the fundamental cause of your sciatic nerve pain or your back pain – it is a SYMPTOM of another problem. But it IS the major mechanism in the body by which pain signals are triggered making us experience pain.

The fact is, if you’re in need of upper or lower back pain relief; you have inflammation.

If you have piriformis pain due to piriformis muscle syndrome and need sciatic nerve pain relief; you have inflammation.

If you’re in pain from herniated discs, arthritis, scoliosis, etc; you have inflammation.

If you got injured in an accident; playing sports; or through a working life of hard, manual labor; yes you guessed it; you have inflammation at the site of your injury.

Every part of your body where you feel pain, especially in your muscles, is a site of tissue inflammation. Why?

Because inflammation is the body’s primary overall response to injury or damage or infection in an area. The American Heritage® Science Dictionary defines inflammation as “The reaction of a part of the body to injury or infection, characterized by swelling, heat, redness, and pain. The process includes increased blood flow with an influx of white blood cells and other chemical substances that facilitate healing.” Inflammation produces chemicals that set off pain as the body’s alarm signal to you that “Hey, there’s something wrong over here!” Thus you refrain from doing those back flips you love to practice that would aggravate the problem when your sciatic nerve pain flares up. :-) It is a vital process, but instead of ending in healing, it can go wrong and become prolonged for months or even years for various reasons...

Since it is the chemical root of pain, logically the first thing you need to do to reduce your pain fast is to cut down the excess inflammation where it hurts. Afterward you get to work on the true foundational cause of your pain condition to obtain lasting back pain relief or sciatic nerve pain relief. After all, how can you work on fixing let’s say your piriformis pain if you can barely bend or walk out of sheer agony because of it?

Now there are two kinds of pain: nerve pain – most often caused by inflammation of surrounding soft tissue putting pressure on your nerves – and tissue pain caused by inflammation in your muscles. Sciatic nerve pain stems from a pressured, irritated sciatic nerve. It is common however to have both types of pain when it comes to leg pain
and back back conditions. A perfect example is piriformis pain, where the hip's piriformis muscle squeezes the sciatic nerve – the piriformis itself may be inflamed and swollen, causing it to put pressure on the sciatic nerve, which then leads to the sciatic nerve becoming inflamed and causing pain too! And you end up with the sharp, shooting pains and numbness of sciatica between the buttocks and legs.

So it can be one type or both because while pain may be caused by nerve irritation/damage, inflamed soft tissue may be what is hurting those nerves and generating its own pain too. With all that said, I bet you’re asking, “Well if it’s part of the healing process, why isn’t my back injury/piriformis muscle/herniated disc/whatever healing with all this inflammation that’s going on?” Excellent question and I’m glad you asked…

You see, beginning around the age of 25 your body starts to slow down in making the enzymes that fight inflammation; the enzymes that come in later and “cool down” the inflammation so that it doesn’t interfere with full healing. These enzymes are one of the main reasons why when you sprained your ankle at 15 it healed in a couple of weeks but if that happens at 45 it commonly takes six weeks or more.

Let’s continue with this illustration… So you’re 15 and you sprained your ankle. Your immune system kicks in and releases Circulating Immune Complex protein (CIC). CIC molecules travel to the injured ankle and cause pain plus swelling from increased blood flow and retention. The pain let’s you know you’re hurt and where. The swelling stops you from foolishly moving it and causing more damage. The swelling is nutrient-rich blood filled with antibodies, vital cells and natural chemicals that begin healing the damage.
Then what normally happens after a while is our bodies produce proteolytic enzymes which counteract the inflammation, which has served its short-term purpose, and things return to normal as you continue to heal. All that is working optimally so the sprain is repaired in a few weeks.

After age 25 however, our production of these enzymes fades gradually so there’s less and less there with each passing year to stop inflammation. Thus pain and swelling lasts longer and healing takes longer the older you get. That ankle keeps on hurting longer. Proteolytic enzymes also clean the blood, destroy harmful viruses and bacteria, and break down excess scar tissue throughout the body.

These enzymes are incredibly crucial to our health and wellbeing. But aging begins early to rob us of these vital compounds making harder and harder to get sciatic nerve pain relief or back pain relief. The muscle imbalances and other things that trigger an inflammatory response in our muscles or nerves MUST be dealt with directly or any pain relief will only be temporary. But we CAN deal with the inflammation causing the painful sensations that interfere with daily life and enjoyment so much by replacing and boosting these special enzymes in our body.

The fastest, safest and most effective way I have ever found to re-supply the body with proteolytic enzymes is with all-natural Heal-n-Soothe™, made to the highest standards with NO fillers or preservatives.

Remember how inflammation is an immune system and damage control response to an injury, infection or irritation? This means it is not limited to just happening in your muscles or joints or body nerves. This is bigger than piriformis pain/sciatic nerve pain relief; bigger than lower back pain relief. The New England Journal of Medicine published a study very recently showing "convincing evidence that inflammation is strongly linked to heart attacks and stroke."

A Harvard study was even more explicit, stating, "half of all heart attacks are caused by inflammation."

As if that wasn’t bad enough, The Annals of Neurology published a study that found that, "inflammation is linked to Alzheimer's and other dementing diseases." And these findings are just the tip of the iceberg. Back pain is one thing, but eliminating uncontrolled inflammation can be a matter of life and death.

Heal-n-Soothe™ goes even further than giving us these vital enzymes. It’s also loaded with 12 time-tested natural painkillers that actually do work. Scientific medical studies have proven all of them to be as effective or MORE effective than the toxic over-the-counter and prescription painkillers you’ve probably been using, with their ever-growing lists of "side-effects" – Some of which don’t even work that well against pain in reality.

The 3 Core Steps To Treatments For Sciatica Back Pain That Work

The 3 Core Steps Of Treatments For Sciatica Back Pain That Work


In order to get long-term sciatica back pain relief, especially when its in the form of piriformis pain, you have to start with the root cause - muscle imbalances. This means you have to find the muscle imbalances that you have and then work towards correcting and improving them. You can find a clear explanation of what muscle imbalances here in Muscle Imbalance - The Secret Source Of Piriformis Pain and Sciatica Back Pain.


Don't be put off by the technical terminology; it’s not difficult to understand the foundations of the pain you’re going through. And even more importantly it’s not difficult to treat and even cure sciatica back pain. All you need is the right information (from those who know what they’re talking about) and the right methods.

So how do you do find out which muscle imbalances you have and how to work on them to eliminate your pain? There's a simple 3 step approach to doing this that has worked with every type of sciatica back pain for hundred of thousands of real people just like you. From piriformis pain to herniated disk pain, this is how to go about healing the body...


Here Are The 3 Steps To Eliminate Your Sciatica Back Pain...



Step 1: Pinpoint the Cause
You do this by finding out which condition you actually have. For example, is it piriformis pain? That means you have piriformis muscle syndrome. And you don’t even need to pay anyone to determine this - there are special "self assessments" you can learn to do yourself that will identify what’s wrong in the body causing the pain in the back-pelvis-leg region. (By the way, piriformis pain is the most common form of sciatic pain.) Then you can find out the muscle imbalances that created it and attack them directly. The simple self assessment tests for sciatica back pain I mentioned before will show you how to do this. More on that later.


Step 2: Treat the Symptoms
So you’ve done that and found out what’s painfully dysfunctional in your body. Great; there’s only one problem – you’re in so much pain you can hardly move! How are you going to implement the treatments that may potentially cure the sciatica or back pain if you're pratically crippled with agony? Obviously you have to reduce the pain way down so you can do what you have to do in the 3rd step. There are techniques that help tremendously with this kind of pain, particularly some simple but precise stretches appropriate for sciatica back pain. You can watch a video of one such stretch in my earlier post, One Of The Best Piriformis Stretches Ever For Relieving Piriformis Pain.


Step 3: Treat the Cause and Condition
First remember - pain is an illusion… :-) Just seeing if you were still paying attention. What pain really is basically is a warning signal from your body telling you that you have a problem to fix.


Now that you know what your condition is and are no longer too handicapped with pain to deal with it thanks to Steps 1 and 2, you focus now on the conditions and specific muscle imbalances causing the suffering. As you will have now realized the treatment for sciatica that's appropriate differs depending on the form of sciatica back pain we’re dealing with. Therefore you apply the appropriate treatment methods proven to take care of that problem from years of real-world chronic pain treatment by experts who have dedicated their careers to achieving pain relief for their patients.


And did I mention YOU can do all of that on your own from home?


Unfortunately this straightforward 3 step approach is not the normal course of action in typical medical treatment out there. You may have experienced this personally - and are still in pain. You MUST addresses the underlying cause of the problem the correct way, not just the symptoms - and NOT with generic exercises that may or may not be right for your specific case of sciatica back pain…


So are you sick and tired of quick fixes that fix nothing? Are ready to enjoy the same lasting sciatica back pain relief over 60,000 people in over 100 countries have gotten from one very special system?


It's real and happening now: All over the world tens of thousands of people have used the information, techniques, strategies and expert guidance in the Lose The Back Pain System to get rid of their sciatica back pain for good. Many of these people had suffered for years and tried every (other) treatment under the sun before finally using this system.


Maybe that’s you, too… If so then you need to take back control of your health and get started using this system right away. It was developed by a team of leading health, fitness and medical professionals and has proven to be far more effective that any other treatment approach being used today. Imagine major long-lasting relief from your back pain or sciatica potentially starting in just 2 days... 

Click here and watch this video explaining what this system is all about and how it can give you the tools to wipe out your sciatica back pain permanently.

The 11 Commandments Of Piriformis Pain

The 11 Commandments Of  Piriformis Pain


Yesterday in my article, Muscle Imbalance - The Secret Source Of Piriformis Pain and Sciatica Back Pain I went into some depth about piriformis muscle syndrome and the most common major cause of piriformis pain - and indeed of most cases of sciatica back pain - muscle imbalances. I encourage you to read it after you've gone over the "commandments" in this article.


That discussion was a little bit technical so as to show the underlying scenarios that lead to piriformis pain. Today I want to simplify things a bit, and be a little tongue-in-cheek too, by giving you, dear reader, the "11  Commandments Of  Piriformis Pain". These are the behavior and lifestyle choices anyone suffering from piriformis pain must strongly consider doing to reduce, relieve, and prevent piriformis pain. As a bonus these tips will help with any other type of sciatica back pain as well. Everything's related. 


Don't be surprised if your piriformis pain sticks around no matter what else you do if you don't try out the advice below. So without further ado, here are The 11 Commandments Of Piriformis Pain:


1. Thou Shalt Sit Straight
One of the worst things you can do to yourself is something you possibly do all day long: Sit down. Because most people slump over into a "C"-shape when they sit and over-stress their spine. This posture normally doesn't hurt you *now*, but it's a documented fact that poor posture = Pain down the road. After years of sitting badly like this, "down the road" has come for many of us...


For more information on dealing with this, click here


2. Thou Shalt Exercise Properly
We all need to develop a balanced and stable body and it's even more urgent if you're already suffering from piriformis pain. The problem is so many of the most popular exercises out there make piriformis muscle syndrome even worse by strengthening the wrong muscle groups further, or by neglecting flexibility. The muscle imbalances that lead to the pain in the first place get reinforced and piriformis pain flares up stronger.

3. Thou Shalt Drink Plenty of Water
Water is so important to humans it goes without saying. One of the most basic yet common causes of pain is dehydration. Not having enough fluid in the body to keep the body cool, the blood moving, the muscles supple, the tendons relaxed and the discs well hydrated causes pain. Drink more water - and coffee, soda and tea aren't water! They dehydrate you by themselves.

4. Thou Shalt Not Tolerate Chronic Inflammation
Inflammation is a primary immune system response to an irritant. The swelling is your body's way of supplying the problem area with antibodies, fresh blood, cells, etc to begin the healing process. And it works pretty flawlessly until age 25 or so, when levels of the healing enzymes critical to controlling this process begin to decline and so inflammation starts running unchecked.

5. Thou Shalt Get Better Sleep
We spend about a third of our life asleep. And it's time well-spent. Sleep allows the body to heal. It's really the only time your muscles properly relax and recover. All the hormones important for healing and recovery such as human growth hormone are produced at highest levels when we sleep. A consistent lack of quality sleep means your muscles, including the piriformis muscles, don't get enough time to recuperate from the day's stress or repair any injury or imbalance. Definitely bad news for any hopes of piriformis pain relief.

6. Thou Shalt Change The Food Ye Eat-eth
The amount of bad inflammation inside you changes based on activity level, the amount and quality of sleep you get, your stress levels, and especially the foods you eat.  Certain foods help reduce inflammation; other foods practically light you up with inflammation. The longer your diet is dominated by inflammatory foods, the higher the risk for painful conditions. The food you eat and your piriformis muscle syndrome are linked - it is chronic inflammation of the sciatic nerve in the area where the piriformis interferes with it that creates the pain. The worse your diet the easier it is for this inflammation to happen and for the "fire" to keep going.

7. Thou Shalt Not Wear Heel Lifts
Leg-length discrepancies are often caused by our habitual posture; how we stand. Women who always carry babies on one hip, for example, can create discrepancies. Our pelvic muscles are conditioned by our constant habit patterns of posture and movement. The muscle interactions involved are very specific to each condition and each individual. If you don't know exactly what YOUR physical problem is - whether it's actually piriformis muscle syndrome or a herniated disc instead for example - you just can't know exactly what to do to correct it. Heel lifts can help but do not treat the underlying problem.

8. Thou Shalt Relax Thy Mind Regularly
If you have used mainstream medicine, physical therapy, massage, chiropractic, acupuncture, surgery... and are still in pain... consider the possibility that the mind via negative emotions and thoughts and mental stress may be playing a powerful role in making your condition resist treatment...

9. Thou Shalt Seek The CAUSE Of Your Pain, Not Get Stuck On A Diagnosis
Once you have a diagnosis don't believe you necessarily have to cure your labeled condition directly to be pain free. Studies prove you can have a diagnosis and not have pain. You see, there's a "hidden cause" to the pain and it's something very few healthcare professionals know about. Piriformis muscle syndrome is a condition name for the symptoms experienced - the real question is what's causing it?

10. Thou Shalt Get Educated
Never stop educating yourself about how to achieve peak pain free health and wellness. You may have come to realize that the name of what you have is "piriformis pain" due to "piriformis muscle syndrome" and that is useful. But the best road to recovery is educating yourself about the whole range of sciatica back pain that exists and acting from that knowledge.


For more education on pain relief in every area, click here


11. Thou Shalt Get Guidance From Experts With A Track Record Of Success
This is ultimately the most important "commandment" of all. After all, odds are piriformis pain relief isn't exactly the area of expertise any of us here studied in school or have worked in. Popping some liver-rotting painkillers is about all most of us are ever taught to use. Not knowing how to deal with piriformis pain is normal as it is not a simple issue. Learning from someone who's made helping people with all types of piriformis pain, sciatica, back pain, leg pain and more his life's work only makes sense...


For more information *that works* from someone who has actually helped thousands of people eliminate piriformis pain, click here


I hope you'll do your best to "obey" these "commandments" or show a loved one who is suffering this article. Following the guidelines above will lead you to the specific combination of actions and changes that will free you of the piriformis pain or sciatica you endure, I have no doubt. Get educated and find what works, if you'll work it.
