✅ Comment "SCIATICA" and we'll send you our free guide covering everything you need to know about sciatica
If your sciatica gets worse the longer you sit, the problem is rarely that you're "sitting wrong."
Most people immediately start looking for a better chair.
A better cushion.
A different position.
But our patients tell us they can only shift around so many times before the symptoms start creeping down the leg again.
The reality is that sitting exposes a problem that's already there.
Your body should be able to tolerate sitting.
Just like it should be able to tolerate walking, exercising, bending, and lifting.
When it can't, that's usually a sign that something isn't doing its job well enough.
Maybe your core isn't providing enough support.
Maybe your hips have become stiff from years of sitting.
Maybe your body simply doesn't have the endurance to maintain positions for long periods of time.
That's why temporary relief often doesn't last.
If we never figure out why the nerve became sensitive in the first place, the symptoms tend to keep coming back.
At Kinesis, we focus on identifying what's driving the irritation, building capacity back into the body, and creating a plan that lasts beyond the flare-up.
