There are a few different exercises that can be helpful for relieving sciatica pain. These include stretches for the hamstrings, glutes, and piriformis muscles; exercises that promote core strength and stability; and pelvic tilts.
It's important to speak with a doctor before starting any new exercise program in order to make sure that the exercises are safe and appropriate for your specific condition. And if you experience any worsening of symptoms after starting an exercise program, be sure to discontinue the exercises and contact your doctor right away.
