This sound file contains the balancing frequencies pertaining to all parts of the lower back in general, their functions and parts involved, emotions, chakras, meridians, promoting recovery from possible conditions including sciatica, lumbago, herniated disc and lower back pain.
Sciatica (also called sciatic pain) is a nerve pain that starts in the back and continues through the buttock and into the leg. Sciatica is caused by the sciatic nerve, the longest nerve in the body, being irritated by an inflammatory reaction and/or by pressure on the nerve. The most important characteristic is therefore lower back pain with radiation to a buttock or leg. The symptoms of sciatica are between lumbago and hernia symptoms. Sciatica can also occur during pregnancy, in which case we speak of pregnancy sciatica.
Symptoms of sciatica and lower back pain can include:
- A numbness or tingling sensation in a buttock or leg that may even radiate to the foot or toes.
- Nagging, painful feeling and/or muscle cramps from the lower back to a buttock or leg.
- Muscle cramps or muscle weakness in the buttock or leg.
- It is difficult to stand upright because of the pain.
- Bending and lifting is painful.
- Sitting for a long time, for example in a car, and changing position is painful.
- Coughing, sneezing, straining and sudden movements cause pain in the leg or back.
Possible causes of sciatica and lower back pain include:
- In the case of a hernia, a protrusion of the intervertebral discs can press against the sciatic nerve.
- Osteoarthritis of the cartilage in the intervertebral discs
- With lumbago there is a tear in one of the walls of the intervertebral discs, which can increase the risk of sciatica.
- Overstraining the back, for example by lifting too heavy
- A poor general condition
- Prolonged inactivity or incorrect posture
