Sciatica Exercises for Seniors: Step by Step Program on How to Deal with Sciatica Pain, Back Pains, and Everyday Pain for Seniors Paperback – 9 Feb. 2022

I suffer with sciatica and arthritis of the knee, after reading this book from beginning to end I am sure that if I can motivate myself to do the exercises both would improve, exercises really explained and illustrated well.

The book has a good range of exercises for sciatica and other joint related issues: it is useful to see exercises suggested by different physios all in the same place, and described in a clear and user friendly way, even if some terms sound a bit ‘American’ for Brits.The paper and print quality aren’t great (not really an issue), and the diagrams are of so many different styles that it looks like a ‘copy and paste’ job! More irritating is the lay out/formatting with section titles at the bottom of a page then a space before the diagram/text on the next page: plain odd, and I would have thought issues should have been fixed at the proof reading stage. As for the word spacing in some headings…It would certainly have been a plus point if there was some information about the author: as far as I can tell all the medical info is accurate, but what is her background and her qualifications? It’s very unusual not to be given some information.Having said all that, I am glad I bought the book and will certainly use it.

All the exercises are very doable no matter how bad the pain is. You only go as far as you can with all the exercises. If they start to hurt you go no further. There is no pushing the exercises to the limit. This book is a great find and help!

well written and easily understandable, many thanks
