Normaly after a few weeks (like now) I would start to feel ok and get back on it... But just to have it flair up a few weeks later... I need to find a way to get rid of this or work around it! Desparate to get back in the gym!

No one believed him anyway.

You can probably guess though.

I have been through this process as I have had sciatica for the past 5 months and had MRI 3 weeks ago. Results in my case came back with 2 disc bulges so Im doing rehab every morning and swimming twice a week which I ave been doing or the past 5 months had Acupunture , Tracktion table , etc etc It will take time walking in my case sets it off and did get sore as hell where I could barely walk ... As the disc closes in on the nerve and traps it causing the pain and it will release over time when Lying down for example when you straighten the spine out. Itcan take months or even yrs Or if severe an Op is the final option to get it sorted .

I have tried this after you suggested it and found it didn't help me with my condition, But if you have a bulging disc to the rear then from what I have read on this technique it can help.
