This is a perfect summary, and I only wish I'd seen it sooner! I've been struggling with L4/L5/S1 disc bulged for the past six months and learned all of this the hard way. Hopefully, it can help others avoid similar pain by correcting their sitting positions. Thank you.

I have desiccation at both locations from a terrible set of injuries in my 20's. A simple and effective daily change was not putting my wallet in my rear pocket. That one change was a HUGE deal. I would think people without back injuries would also benefit.

I’ve been crossing my leg!!! Omg. I’m stopping immediately. This definitely has been contributing to my flare ups. Thank you. This is great information.

Your video has been immensely helpful. I haven’t had a flare up in at least five years as I’m usually very active but I badly broke my femur this past July 4th and severe nerve pain in that leg reared its ugly head after weeks of bedrest and chair rest and has made my healing absolutely miserable. You’re a life saver!

No glossy hair, immaculate nails, or sexy gym gear, just really good, practical, advice without any spin. Thank you.<br><br>With bulging L4-L5-S1, my tidbit is, to identify the chair that is doing this to you. There may be one that is worse than the others. Mine was my TV chair... deep, low, and slopes down front to back, my pelvis is almost horizontal in it.<br><br>I never considered my own anatomy until it started hobbling me with this pain. So easily taken for granted lol.

I've been dealing with slipping L4/L5 discs for most of my life with occasional flare ups, just recently I started a desk job where I'm sitting all day, and right now I'm dealing with a flare up/inflamed discs because of it. I'm definitely going to pay close attention to my posture on Monday and try to do resets in between calls.Thank you for the tips, fingers crossed my discs start healing. ❤
