Yoga Therapy for Sciatica

Sciatica can involve pain, burning, numbness, or pulling from the lower back into the hip or leg. A careful approach matters because pushing too hard can increase symptoms instead of easing them.

What We Focus On

• Reducing positions that aggravate nerve irritation.
• Improving leg, hip, and spinal alignment through supported work.
• Restoring confidence in walking, sitting, and daily transitions.

Why Support Matters

Iyengar props allow the body to work without unnecessary force. This can be especially important when symptoms flare after sitting, bending, or long periods of inactivity.

When to Seek Guided Help

If leg pain keeps returning, or if you feel stuck between temporary relief and recurring flare-ups, a structured therapeutic plan may help you move more safely.
