Thank you so much. Dealing with Rt hip pain for 6 months n was being treated by PT n chiro for bursitis and gluteal tendinopathy. Pain started radiating to buttock, thigh, knee, leg n back, especially when I first stand up. Just had MRI that showed the bulging discs at L4-5. Started the exercises n they dont hurt like before. Will update later.

i have been struggling with lower back pain and sciatica for about 6 years now..I just turned 61 .I am much better than I was a few years ago when I needed a walker to walk or stand more than 10 minutes..I did most of these exercises for awhile and sleep with a pillow between my legs...The key is to keep doing the exercises and dont stop just because you feel better like I did. I also try to swim as much as possible and do a little yoga...I just subbed because I think your videos can help motivate me. I just started to trying to workout a little in the gym too but am so afraid of hurting myself
