The Ultimate Neck Pain, Back Pain, and Sciatica Relief and Treatment Strategies for a New You in the New Year!

Over the course of the Summer and Fall we have explored many of the ultimate in neck pain, back pain, and sciatica relief and treatment strategies, in terms of self-administered treatment and focusing on:

1) The personal assessment, to include the visual assessment, measures with the tape and a scale, and chronicling the observations made in a journal and on a spreadsheet. By doing a proper personal assessment and then keeping track of the course of treatment, both in terms of results and setbacks, you will be able to pinpoint the areas needing attention and those areas responding to your neck pain, back pain, and sciatica relief and treatment strategy.

2) The proper equipment to implement your program. This not only includes the proper gear but the best exercise facility and a trainer suited for someone with neck pain, back pain, and/or sciatica. Also get proper shoes, socks, ice-compression braces for the cervical and/or lumbar regions, and related materials and equipment for your walks, workouts, and for your day-to-day life. DO NOT SKIMP! You will pay the price if you do. Just think about how much you have spent on medical bills, co-pays, prescriptions, and lost wages! Also carry with you an emergency kit for your walks and workouts, so if something should come up, you are prepared.

3) This also includes the best medical practitioner, one sensitive to your needs as a patient and as a person attempting to reclaim their life. I feel this is crucial! Do not accept someone with a fatalistic approach! You are not doomed to have neck pain, back pain, and/or sciatica for the remainder of your life. If you have a medical practitioner who tries to get you to go along with that mindset…fire him or her at once! Keep in mind another thing, the best available at the present time, does not mean it will be the best available 6 months, a year or 5 years later. So never give up…and never give in!

4) The proper program! This is crucial. I’m afraid there are gaps in almost every program out there. Not only does each and every program have gaps, they all have their particular biases. Remember, what works for one may not work for the next, so if something doesn’t match up well and workout to your satisfaction, after a proper trial, of course, then move on. But never give up or give in! There is a program for you…or another coming down the pike in the next few months! (Guaranteed!)

5) Get active! Make sure you begin with stretching and walking, then build up to exercises designed to make the most of your time and situation…while still dealing with you neck pain, back pain, and sciatica. Make sure you don’t over do it at first but make sure you maintain an active lifestyle, and do more each and every day.

6) Remember CANI! Tony Robbins’s “constant and never-ending improvement!” Only through consistent and constant action, building one day upon the day before, can we ever hope to achieve our goal…in this case neck pain, back pain, and sciatica relief long term.

For the remainder of the steps we have taken, just look back over the past 5 months, here and at The Bad Back Guy’s Neck Pain, Back Pain, and Sciatica Relief Blog!

The video below includes a description of the next 40 days, in very broad strokes. I hope you will stay with me for the next 40 days, as we enter the New Year…a neck pain, back pain, and sciatica free New Year!

Take a look back to June 30, 2009, by then I was well on the way to a new life, a neck pain, back pain, and sciatica free life. However, you will see a different person than the one looking back at you from the video below. I did that in less than 5 months! I can help you do the same…if you will allow me into your life just long enough to help you change it, to get it back, to find real and lasting neck pain, back pain, and sciatica relief!

I look forward to serving you, if you will let me! Neck pain, back pain, and sciatica do not have to be a reality…and neither do any of the 5 factors:

1) Excess weight and/or obesity.

2) Muscle weakness.

3) Muscle imbalance.

4) Inadequate diet and nutrition.

5) Dehydration.

After 14 spine operations, a complete shoulder reconstruction, and a number of other injuries and medical issues, including 2 crushed vertebrae in my neck, I am no stranger to pain, to surgery, or to rehab. My military background, my background training top-level amateur and professional athletes, and my education as a physical anthropologist, winning one of the most prestigious doctoral fellowships in the country at the time, and focusing on age-progressive phenomena affecting the spine and sacroiliac joint, put me in a unique position to not only help myself…but to offer my assistance to those who need it, if you want it!

Once again…neck pain, back pain, and sciatica do not have to be a death sentence…or a lost-life sentence! There is a way out and I can help!

Stretching is a crucial part of any neck pain, back pain, and sciatica relief and treatment exercise program.

Begin your routine slowly and you will be amazed at the results!

I have made the video below with two stretches I do often, several times a day as a matter of fact. They help relieve tension and they help to alleviate stiff and tired neck and back muscles.

For those just beginning a neck pain, back pain, and sciatica relief and treatment exercise program, these stretches will be immensely helpful!

Neck Pain, Back Pain, and Sciatica: Dealing with Muscle Weakness and Pain Relief Strategies

The spine is an incredibly complex system and of the 5 factors contributing to neck pain, back pain, and sciatica, muscle weakness has a profound effect on the overall health of the spine.

The five factors are excess weight and/or obesity, which we have discussed, muscle weakness, which is discussed below and at one of my other neck pain, back pain, and sciatica relief blogs, muscle imbalance, which is next on the agenda and will be available shortly, and finally inadequate diet and nutrition, followed by dehydration and/or inadequate hydration.

In my opinion, the 5 factors are the basis for most neck pain, back pain, and sciatica complaints…on some level.

Because the spine is such a complex system, muscle weakness adversely affects the overall health of the system almost at once and in a significant manner. In the video below, and the one mentioned above, you should be able to get a pretty good picture of what is going on, and why.

The Recumbent Bike for Neck Pain, Back Pain, and Sciatica Exercise

or

Low-Impact Exercise and Treatment: Offsets Loss of Muscle Tone and Weakness!

The recumbent bike, as I have said many times before is one of the best overall neck pain, back pain, and sciatica relief exercises! If there is a problem with the recumbent bike, it is sometimes with people experiencing severe sciatica. However, even with most cases of sciatica, the recumbent bike is very useful if used properly.

The low-impact nature of the bike, plus its all-around, all-weather usage makes it ideal for year round application. Not only that, the gains made on the recumbent bike are lasting. Even with time off, I still went right back to my old fitness level in a short amount of time!

Overall, the recumbent bike can’t be beaten as a neck pain, back pain, and sciatica relief aerobic-based activity…unless of course you compare walking. And interestingly, walking falls a bit short for those just beginning an exercise program because with the recumbent bike you are always a few steps from your car, your home, and from help…if you need any of them.
