In this short video, I want to cover some great natural remedies for sciatica.

The sciatic nerve is the largest nerve in the body. Sciatica occurs when the nerve is irritated. Symptoms can include numbness, tingling, and weakness in the lower back that goes down the back of the leg and even into the foot.

One of the most common things that happen is that part of the disk or the soft tissue around the disk is protruding into the nerve root.
