5 Best Sciatica Exercises for a Herniated Disc - Ask Doctor Jo

In addition to a herniated disc, sciatic pain can be caused by a few different things. These are my 5 favorite exercises for sciatica from a herniated disc.

The first exercise is a pelvic tilt. This is a great way to get those pelvis muscles, core muscles, and trunk muscles moving.

Then you will go into a bridge. This not only works the pelvic muscles to help protect the spine, but it also works the glutes and hamstrings.

Next are clamshell exercises. They look easy, but when they are done correctly, they do a great job of working the core and pelvic muscles.

Now you will do a bridge with a ball squeeze. The squeezing helps activate the adductors and inner thigh muscles to help all the muscles work together for a strong core.

Finally, you will do a prone bent leg lift. This again is great for working the gluteus maximus and hamstrings which are important for good trunk stability.
