Back Pain Relief and Sciatica Relief Using Feldenkrais
Back pain is one of the most common reasons people go to the doctor, miss work, and is a leading cause of disability worldwide.
In spite of the impressive number of treatment options available, most approaches to back pain and sciatica often prove less than satisfying and the relief is usually not permanent. Each case of back pain requires an individualized approach and treatment plan.

The stability of the back rather than the strength of the back prevents your back from harm
Therapy for stability is quite different from strength training
A Feldenkrais method approach to back pain relief and sciatica considers
The stability of the back is dependent on a properly functioning spinal core
The spinal core is a complicated series of discs and vertebrae, each with a slightly different function
