I coughed last night and I felt a sharp pain in the lower back and tingling down my right leg. It's the weekend and my chiropractor office is not open. I woke up in pain sore and almost hunched over from the pain. I started doing some research online because this issue started 5 years ago after my workout. I've been going to the chiropractor after chiropractor and every three months or so I'll be back with the same issue. I read up on my symptoms and since it's been 5 yrs with the same problem I narrowed it down to sciatica. I serached pinched nerve on KZbin and found your videos and started doing them immediately. I am now sitting up in bed typing this review with litte pain. I set and alarm and have been doing these stretches every hour (road kill etc.). I completed the standing way of cracking your back and did it at various levels, as well as, the one with the foot behind the knee. I was able to lay on the floor and complete this and get up with no pain. Thanks kindly for your videos, I truly do appreciate you giving your time to help and educate others.
