If you're relying on hanging to decompress your disc and take pressure off your nerve, you're going to be disappointed. Because as soon as you let go, gravity goes right back on your discs. So because you can't live your life hanging or on a decompression table, let me show you how to fix your disc herniation or sciatica without it. First, to decompress your low back, grab a weight. Hold a weight straight overhead, push a low back into the floor, and now raise one leg at a time, alternating each side to the floor. This actually decompress the disc and takes pressure off of the nerve. Now the disc space is opened up and is ready to move. So you're going to get on all fours, knees back. You're going to push hips forward and down, gently pushing into extension as far as you can comfortably and perform repetitively. This is improving extension mobility and is actually reducing disc pressure, moving it away from the nerve to reduce your pain. Then get in our 90 90 position. You can use your hands for support and transition back and forth, and make the biggest circle you can with your knees. This is going to mobilize your hips to take pressure off the lower back to help you move better for longer. But if you want to learn our full back pain solution, just text me the word "TikTok" to 317-751-9509 and you can get a free disc fix demo with my team.
