At 76 years old I appreciate that many of your videos are geared towards my age group and the various pain we suffer. However I would like you to make it clear in all your videos which exercises NOT to do if you have had knee and hip replacements. This would be of immense help to all of us who have had New joints. Many thanks .
THANK YOU. I am in extreme pain just now. Searched for this help. Spon. for 10 years plus 2 knee replace. 18 years old. Medicines alot, ablations,epidural shots. L. 3-5. Good doctors I like but, they do not have the time to teach me this. WOW! I sure have been doing these things wrong. I will watch this over and over. I am glad I found you. I will share.
Hey, make one video how to sit in the floor. And how to read a book ergonomically in the floor or in the desk. Or even standing up. Thanks
Up side down mate ...ez😂
I find moving about helps the most, that and ice packs. Sleeping with a pillow between your knees helps too.
What an excellent video, so informative. Thank you guys!
Love you guys thanks for the helpful tips !
These vids are great, thanks!
Thank you for putting humor in at the end :) Even though i still miss the 'fix a broken heart' outtro
Thanks for informative info, and great vids gents!👍
Already feels so much better. Thank you.
Very informative, like different ones you have shown.
Thank you, very professional analysis for me to understand what I need.
I'm 26 and have awful sciatica and this video instantly helped to ease my pain, thanks a lot guys. Like a lot of other people said you've changed my life!
How is it a year later ?
@@abundancejourney8316 gone! Very rare spouts since then but they don't last long
@@Sauce.... Glad to hear bro ! Gives me some hope. Experiencing it at 23 and it gives a sense of impending doom, hopefully it eases like yours did.
Thanks for the reply.
@@Sauce.... how long did it take to recover?
@@taskmagician4289 I had it for a good 6 months I would say, but using this technique whenever it's hurting really really helps, eventually it seemed to just fade away especially after i started doing these stretches daily
I'm trying a TitanPRO Folding Bar chair that was around the house. I was sitting in my bed with my laptop, and yes, thanks to you guys I notice my was very round. THank you.
Hi Bob, I would like to thanks you and your clique, this weekend I have got relief from my backpain because of your video. thanks Sir !!
Thank You 🙏
Sure to learn here. thanks
You're welcome Brad
Sent this to my Dad. Not practical to lay or stand when you are older and have vertigo, weaker legs, mobility issues. Any recommendations? During waking hours sitting is a given.
standing always seems to make my back pain far worse than sitting
Im 25 and im the same.
If i have to stand in public transport for long periods my back just starts to fail me.
the issue might be with facet joints and unrelated to disc.Hope you are doing good now
me too. Can't figure it out. Maybe I should ask my doc.
Sitting on the couch definitely the best solution. All those exercise and stretches means nothing if your regular chair just can't cooperate with you.
I have arthritis in back and knees i had my sofas raised by 3.5 ins it has made all the difference in the world ...
Very helpful. Where can you buy back supports that you mention. Need one for my chair. Thanks.
I have slept for years in a reclining chair
It works.
It’s really hard to find out what support I need. I don’t have lower back pain though, but my mid and upper back hurts. When I use the built in lumbar to the max and use an extra pillow it helps a bit but I can’t use the backrest anymore
Thanks I didn't even realize how much I been sitting since covid started. I am going to start walking more now. My lower back hurts so bad while washing dishes ect.... Holdinga cell phone probably don't help
I really like CBD from Weedborn.
I also need to have my hips/butt higher, or at least on the same plane, as my thighs.Make a big difference.
I use a pool nudel cut to length. Without the plastic insert.
My chair has a nice void right where my lumbar arches inward.... zeroooo support.
Can you use that leg wedge for sleeping at night too?
hello i wanted to ask what type of chair is good for my back becuase i just found out that i have Scoliosis but it isnt bad. but it still is painful when im at work becuase i delivery for amazon
Throw pillow for long distance driving?
I have to sit to do my work, usually for hours. I can get up to stretch every hour or so though. Do you have any exercises that you recommend for after sitting for an extended period of time?
czcams.com/video/GQw-yz1lWho/video.html may it should help
Yea is there any video for this problem?
am I the only 25 year old here? what the fuck did I do to my back?
Not uncommon to happen to the young. Good luck,
Bob
Im 25 as well and also in the same position. I guess its from the consequences of sitting in terrible chairs all my life for desk activities
@@Vivi_Strike Update, im doing better now. super physical jobs always but I still get a little pinch here and there.
Don't opt out for physio!
is it ok to do walking in a swimming pool ?
The Vertteo seems to be sold out everywhere. Is there a better link or an alternative?
Here is one: amzn.to/3OZ9hYl
I don’t know if I’ll get an answer but I damaged the hell out of my facet joints from a squat inury that was 8 months ago. I’m a college student and I’m only 18 years old. I’m trying to get better but sitting in classes and at the dorm are preventing me from fully recovering. I’m not sure if I will ever heal and I am losing hope. I’m not sure if I should take a gap semester for a good few months to see if I full recover. I’m not sure if I have the facet joint syndrome or not or really bad sprain.
elderly couch sofa back pain support ?
I'm 16 and have this sciatica can It get permenently cured or not please doctor send me a reply
I'm waiting for the video of how to sit on a lawnmower ;)
What if We lie down on the chair? it also stretches my back. is it safe to lie down on chair? how to lie down on chair
for swelling not legs not up than head Pillow ?
I want a perfect ergonomic chair for working at home and in the office. Any recommendations? I've had a disc herniation and really want to prevent another.
What about these kneeling type chairs?
...or saddle type chairs?
How’d you recover if you don’t mind me asking
rabola55 check out ester gokyle and stretch sitting and just her videos on sitting in general. Amazing stuff. This video goes over good stuff but I found after my L5 disc herniation thstbher stuff was next level. Good luck my friend!
moeez awan I did athlean x “how to fix a disc herniation without surgery” also used bob and brads McKenzie protocol stuff
With regards to your medical licenses and years of experience on the physical therapist field, not to mention the hundreds of carefully thought out guides and general helpful advice you provide, I’ve been wanting to ask, what are your thoughts on sonic the hedgehog?
I can't sit on a chair for more than 10 Min no matter what position, chair, etc
I'm suffering DDD, L5S1 Herniated disc. is there any way to resolve his issue?
Same, I can't sit for over 2 minutes without having to float my left butt cheek and left thigh.. it's horrible..
@@tylerdasmonc6973 I just unable to work anymore out of the same reason. I'm sorry to hear about your case. You did MRI and Xray?
I didnt get anything done yet, seeing expert on the 9th. I cant sit, stand, or walk. Disk is pushing on the nerve for sure!
Try the Alexander Technique. Great for back pain. Not a quick solution, but the best one.
@@tylerdasmonc6973 hi , how are you today? I am got the same problem 😫😫 can you sit now ?
How do I sit on the toilet with sciatica ???
I has sciatica and was thinking the same thing
Lieing down facing up gives nightmares 🥺.
Not if you befriend the monsters 😉🖤
Hi guys, I'm 6'6" and about 325lbs, and have been experience some lower back pain after sitting in my office chair. It's a very big office chair, designed for folks even bigger than me. My question is, is it better to have the chair reclined, so I'm leaning back, or better that it's locked in the upright position? Thanks very much!
I'm 6'1 and I have the same problem, I am using my Dad's old office chair he's 6'6 too but I think it's for 7 ft tall person lol.
Ergonomics is like matching clothes, and chairs fit us like straitjackets, as long as we stay still, we don't mind!
That theme song sounds like it was written by chiropractors.
Question: What is Memory foam?
Me: Something that is molded to make technically atractive things, but goes paper flat AF when aplied pressure.
Memory foam: Come on! I know I become flat when you sit on me, but I come back to advertised shape! Doesnt that help??
I must be sitting wrong. My low back and tailbone are hurting with all this working from home and sitting
Sounds like your hips are rotated back a bit. You should be on your site-bones (rockers at bottom of pelvis). Without arching your back, you might want to have a cushion or two to keep your back from falling back.
guess I'll just lie down at work..
I’ve been home for 1 month with a sciatica flare in back of leg, butt, and numbness in foot that’s starting to fade thank god. The pain is starting to fade, but I only lay down or walk. I haven’t sat down only on the toilet for a short time. But I want to be able to drive my car again.. how long do I have to wait to drive again, with sitting?
From watching their videos I can say you're doing the right things. Only laying, walking/standing, not sitting or bending. I hope they respond, but, if they dont, they usually say its dependent on you an your back. I.e some need just a few weeks some months, some even year or more.
Hi V - I feel for you, I have an L5-S1 herniated disc with the butt/leg pain and a little foot numbness. You get better, then you have those "flares" as you describe. I've changed my work environment so I mostly stand, but sometimes will close my office door & lay on the floor with a laptop to work. Sitting is so difficult & driving is just the worst. The butt/glute pain is so bad, it brings me to tears at times when I get out of the car. My back doesn't hurt when I sit - it's the glute pain that is just torture. The best thing I've found to help in the car is a Purple seat cushion & a Pandaspillow lumbar support, but sometimes those don't cut it either when I'm flaring. Last night, my husband got home & nonchalantly said "It feels so good to sit down," and it made me so sad, hoping I'll be able to say that again one day. It's really awful to not be able to sit, but my neurosurgeon and rehab doctors tell me it's possible to heal from this without surgery, to be patient, to do my exercises - so I'm keeping the faith and looking for any tips I can find. Bob & Brad's channel has been a big help, and their humor helps me keep my spirits up. Hope you're feeling better soon.
Diana thank you for your reply.. omg you sound just like me. Just the butt area is hurting. I don’t sit either.. I walk or lay down... I can’t even sit in my car yet. I hope I can one day... I need to get my life back, this is getting me more depressed than I am, plus being indoors from the shutdown. I’m alone so it’s difficult. My MRI is next week I hope. I hope you get better soon too.
@@Vic72075 Try to keep moving, even if it's just walking. My neurosurgeon wanted me to start swimming, but with everything going on, I didn't get to join the gym to get started. He says it's important to keep moving, so try to get your steps in if nothing else. It really is depressing to not be able to sit - I tell my doctor this gives new meaning to the term "a pain in my ass." There's so many things you avoid doing when you can't sit. Hoping you and I both get some healing & relief soon. Take care.
Diana Thank you for your advice, I’m gonna try. I’m so scared I’m going to get worse cause it’s been a month. I will try to keep moving, and yes I hope we both get better soon. I hate this shutdown here in NY cause it makes things worse. Take care
That clickbait pic looks like something right out of Mortal Kombat 11.
Please help I am a kid of 14 age and my back hurts soo much I dont play games qq
who runs the bob & tom fan club??
Okay you have made a mistake huge mistake I'm sure you are not considering people's height are you because I short chair for somebody else who is 6ft 2 might not be a short chair for somebody who's 5 feet so this chairs fit all what do you mean what is considered short chair?
I think it's better to explain where your knees should be or the angle degrees your legs should be angled if that makes sense instead of saying short chairs not good for you what does that actually mean individually for each person since there are people who are 4ft 11in some who are 6-foot I am 5ft and I'm having an extremely hard time finding a good chair there are chairs out there that say this is the best chair there's even a million-dollar chair but the same question remains one-size-fits-all this expensive chairs are made for whom what height is the person because a 6-foot tall man has a longer back longer legs than let's see me who's 5 feet
What about sitting in bed..it kills me
All sitting slowly kills you. So I guess you have to get your back as healthy as possible without further additional damage. I love jogging but that's a big no no now. This pain really cramps your life/health.
