All of us that deal with Back pain Luv YOU!!!❤

[@angelabrighouse2180]

Love you❤

[@richardvenegas3778]

I’m a driver and I’m sitting most of the time, I feeling better since I’ve started these exercises. Thank you !

[@arthritisadventure]

So happy to hear that!

[@AJohnson0325]

make sure you have good lumbar support when driving. Even my car that has an adjustable lumbar support isn’t enough. You need to try to maintain the same lumbar curve as when standing more or less. If you are slouching, then the discs will have more pressure on them. Some people find that moving the seat closer to the steering wheel helps. Take breaks and stand up and walk around a bit when you can.

[@agentilcore]

Thank you Ayssa. I am 64 and have a sciatica flare up due to DDD. I must say that this was made worse by a sport medicine PT who had me doing extreme stretches initially. After his therapy my leg was on fire! I have had very painful thigh and knee pain for a month as a result. I could barely walk. I am discovering that indeed I need the conservative exercises you have on your videos. My acupuncturist was the one who said never stretch an inflamed nerve. I am so grateful for your video. I am trying to get the nerve to settle down and to rebuild my muscle strength. This week I am going to get a new script for PT from my dr. for exactly what you are doing. I wish I lived in SLC!

[@arthritisadventure]

I am glad you liked the video! Thank you for sharing your experience.

[@agentilcore]

@@arthritisadventure I see that when I first got this diagnosis I was desperate to stop the pain and to get back to normal. It was too much too fast, and I caused more delay in healing. I like your approach ...slow and steady....also, I have seen 2 PT and the methods are very different so as you say it is important to find someone who works for you.

[@lizajanemoses6213]

Thank you for this I am 38 with degenerative disc disease and have already had 2 herniated disc. I went from hiking half the AT to severe back pain. I had 6 months of physical therapy and the fear of that pain again keeps me from doing stuff. Thank you for this video bc it helps keeps me on a routine again! 😊

[@cathw61]

New subscriber! Have been dealing with back pain off and on last few years (I just turned 62 and tired of getting told "you know at YOUR age...or OUR age" depending on doc) and the last 3 months have had mri's (DDD and narrowing of spine, lumbar, cervical mri tomorrow,) one osteorithic shoulder and the other bursitis and need to lose some weight (how do we do this when it hurts to move). Have had therapy that seems to help a tiny bit then gets worse and I just keep cycling through it. Now at the point where its completely affected my life with pinching nerves, can barely walk a 1/4 mile and getting very little sleep. Can't take ibuprofen due to acid reflux, aspirin does nothing, and don't want to take pain killers just to mask. I sit on ice packs or heating pads a lot and just trying to not feel depressed! Have a ton of trips planned next year and am afraid I will miss out. I'm too young for this! I tried a few of the exercises holding on to a chair for stability, and a few of the exercises were ones I'm already doing (knee to chest), and they were very doable! I will watch the other videos as well and let you know how they go. Thanks for the inspiration and giving me hope. I have too much life left to live, I work for myself and my husband's amount of vacation time is huge, we want to travel and see the country and I don't want to miss out. I will keep you posted and thank you!

Did these exercises for 2 days. I feel some relief from my lower back pain

[@billjeffries3648]

It took me a while to figure out that too much stretching can actually irritate your spine (DDD) and make exercise more difficult especially if you try to stretch first. Doing a warm-up like this and then moving into some gentle stretching does the trick for me.

[@genielhowe260]

I love this set of exercises and I have been doing them every day now for a week. One concern - When I do the side step with high knees, my right hip clicks and is a little sore. My right side is typically where I have pain from DDD ( S1,L5 & L4 ). Should I keep doing this one? Thank you!

[@cristinalattuada5322]

I think you are great at the demos and the advice and you really understand the painful situations we find ourselves.Your suggestions and encouragement really helps. I will definitely give this work out a try. I might have to modify it due to to hip pain at the front. I looked through all your videos and I didn’t see anything on shoulder pain or plantar fasciitis. Are you likely to do a video in the future on these subjects? Thank you again. ❤

She is also more inspired to go for a short walk outside of her care home! We only do 10 - 12 minutes a day for her and I go on to do more of them. Feeling grateful!

Hi Allyssa I have write you before. I had fusion l4 and l 5 2015 after a bad fall. It helped for six months. I had a mri recently and was shocked..I have severe stenosis, ruptured discs, a torn disc, facet joint disease, and my l4 is trying to slide over level l5 with fusion. I know it sounds like a lot but not too long ago I was push mowing , walking three miles about three days a weeks and less other days, garden, etc. I have noticed I feel very unstable. I did this with you tonight. It was hard for me because my back is not stable .I do worse when I sit. I am so happy I could do. I am very active in the spring and summer . As soon as it gets cold I feel awful. I wonder if it is from the cages and screws and I also have morning spasms that are so debilitating. I do not plan much on the mornings and our church starts early on Sundays so I have to get up early, take a mild pain med and try to get out of bed. Sometimes my husband helps me get up . I don't want another surgery. I will work out with you. Thank you so much. BTW I walked after surgery three times a day in 90 plus degree and did what I was told. The doctor said with my degenerative disease my back is full of arthritis. My husband always said atleast you have great knees. He did not have good knees . I stepped in a hole while doing lots of yard work ( live on five acres ) and I could not move my right knee. I was screaming. My husband's knee orthopedic doctor had me get xrays and I am bone on bone in my right knee😢. My husband did have his second knee replacement so soon he can help with the yard and other things. I am sixty seven and everyone says I am young for my age. I always felt that way and I am going to get better. I want to camp, hike and fish and all the things we used to do. Thank you dear Allysa. ❤❤❤

I don't know if i have this disease but i knew my back would hurt like hell when i stood, walked to the point that to be comfortable anywhere i have to rest on something. So i told myself I'd exercise but after 10mins of walking in place the sharp pain came. I felt so bad so i looked on Google and here i am.. i noticed the changes in just one weekend. My doctor referred me to a rheumatologist and at first i was annoyed but after reading about DDD it tracks. This is the first exercise or stretch I've been able to do in years now without feeling discomfort or extra pain infact it loosened me up to want to try others.

[@claudiamm8658]

This was a helpful workout. Question, I have read that pulling leg to chest may not be good because it creates back flexion. I don't have pain when I do it but I don't want to be creating more damage. What are your thoughts on this? Thanks so much!

[@arthritisadventure]

The movement itself isn’t inherently dangerous. If it causes or flares up your pain, it could be an irritating movement but doesn’t necessarily cause more damage. If you don’t have pain while doing it or afterwards- likely it’s okay!
