RE: No-Effort "First Aid" for Sciatica
I've been having a terrible time with my lower back lately, too much heavy lifting. It's been years since I had a yoga ball, and I've been meaning to get one - this is the perfect nudge to do so.
Happy to be your 'nudge' - heavy lifting is never really the problem - weak core and stabilizing muscles are, along with poor lifting technique. Wishing you EASE from lower back pain! A Pilates ball here in Thailand is somewhere from USD $6-10... hoping you can find something equally affordable - SUCH a great investment!!
I've always had one but it seems to have vanished the last big cross country move we made. I used to use it as my desk chair from time to time which I really miss. My issue is 1. Stubbornness and 2. The need to do everything for myself. :) I've been moving and lifting things that are far too heavy for me, hard to have good form when you are struggling to make something budge.
