    In desperation I bought an SI belt and it made my back pain worse. Some weeks later I had an MRI which as you mentioned identified problems in my lumbar spine L5/5 and L5/S1 area not the SI joint. Your subsequent explanation of why wearing an SI belt would make my lumbar spine problem worse now makes perfect sense so Thank you.
    You’ve taught me more in 20 minutes than hours of sessions with so-called experts.

      @@BackInShapeProgram thanks for your reply. I’ve got a large herniated disc L4/L5 and I’m in a lot of sciatica pain for about a month and a half now, and I feel I’m getting the wrong advice, even from the physio. I’m just not sure what is the best strategy at this stage to get off this crisis.
      I chose not to have the injection as I don’t want to mask the problem, but as you can imagine it’s been very tough!! I’m trying to maintain the min such as going to work (I’ve got a standing desk) and also walk around during the day, but I’m afraid I might be making the problem worse.
      I’ll check the website and hope I can get an online consultation? Thanks!

    This was super helpful in decisions to get a belt and if so what type. I would really enjoy your opinions on the inflatable decompression belts to finish off the conversation. Any thoughts on those types and any affects on lower lumbar and L5/S1 ?

    • @BackInShapeProgram
      @BackInShapeProgram  9 дней назад

      Not a fan, they're so expensive you may as well get an inversion table instead, or just do things like the towel decompression/bed decompression. I think it's generally impractical to use belts period, whether decompression or not, while the decompression will make sense (actually do what you want it to do) I just don't feel like that's the right thing to use and then do "stuff" with it on, which might be the temptation.

    I was getting regular sore trigger points on SI joints which dry needling even one treatment relieved it but then I found out through constant experimentation that the tennis ball I was using on those points in attempt to passive release (on yoga mat and pillow for head) was actually causing this.
    Fast forward to a serola SI belt. At first it seemed to sure up that area helping me walk better but again experimenting and thinking it seemed to be moving more pain to my strained sacrum AND cutting off circulation until I lossened the belt to where it had no purpose there.
    Believe it or not I experimented using a custom lumbar belt with the SI belt for walking.
    That didn't last long as it seemed to alter my gait and prevent free range of motion of all muscles so I just removed all belts and focused on my gait walking slower and for less distance and gradually building.
    I should figured this out before if I had thought more because I can't even wear pants and regular belts as it cuts off my circulation. Same with gym pants or scrubs that have that narrow lace constricting your circulation especially when you sit.
    Now I wear joggers with a wide elastic strip the right size to keep circulation good and comfort. Was probably more a problem when I weighed more but I've lost a lot of weight.
    Another dumb mistake was using crutches to off load for my sacrum pain which is terrible for the back or using crutches for long distances even with minimal weight on them. Major altered gait affecting joints top to bottom (shoulders, neck, lower back, even shins)

    Lumbar spine badly damaged sacroiliac joint bad,tilt,rest of my spine not grown properly. I’m now 73. Long time with back problem.😢

    • @BackInShapeProgram
      @BackInShapeProgram  Год назад

      The best thing to do is start to build from the ground up building strength and support for the lower back, 73 certainly is not too late to start! If you need more help do check out the website for more guidance: backinshapeprogram.com

    I’ve had a car accident that caused fractures in the upper spine, ribs have healed but my back is still very painful. Can’t wear a bra, after a while it causes pain. I find you can’t wear a support belt with a bra. Any ideas?

    • @BackInShapeProgram
      @BackInShapeProgram  Год назад

      You really need to focus on rebuilding strength rather than working the the support belt. I suspect a longer healing time and period of inactivity post accident has led to muscle wasting which will take time and effort to reverse, if you do need help with this check out the website for more information and you can always shoot us an email/dm on any of the platforms too :) backinshapeprogram.com/premium/
