Fantastic video, Ollie! 🌟 These exercises are incredibly helpful for managing sciatica. Love how you emphasize keeping positive and active - so important for healing. 💪 Also, interesting point about inflammation; the endocannabinoid system can play a role in regulating pain and inflammation too! 🌿 Thanks for sharing these valuable tips. 😊

Are these exercises suitable for my problematic sacroiliac joint? I have a flare up which is most painful when I get up in the morning or if I have been sitting in a bad posture chair. Walking definitely helps!

It sounds like you respond well to movement, especially if walking helps relieve and manage your symptoms. Strengthening the area is also a good strategy to improve your overall tolerance for movement and loading. Start with an intensity that is well tolerated by you, and focus on staying consistent first.
