    I do hope so much Pronto that things can improve so soon, I know there is nothing worse than being in terrible pain and thinking about you - remember hang in there and this won't last forever. For sciatica, Bowen Therapy is something that has been a great help to me. Also a book called Back Pain Decoded by Robert Shanks, available on Amazon I think (£20 UK money for black and white version) also seems to have some really good and different practical advice from many similar books, explained very clearly and in an understandable and simple way.

    Hoping and praying the doctor can give you right advice / information / treatment, and that God can guide you to the right person / place for help and treatment. Hang in there Pronto, thinking of you and hoping and praying for a breakthrough in your situation.

      Hi Pranto,

      Good question, something I asked myself when I first heard about it about 10 years ago or so!

      Bowen therapy is a natural, completely safe and non-evasive therapy, much less evasive and more gentle than physio or chiropractic or anything - it works I believe on fascia. I was sceptical myself whether it would do much at first, but it really has helped me and I would definitely recommend it, particulary if sciatica is an issue, there are a few great sciatic moves that can be done. Sometimes it takes a few sessions to see a difference, but definitely worth looking into seeing if someone local does it and to give it a try. At the very least it can't do any harm or cause any issues, it's very safe.
