Sciatica help
Symmetry Program-http:/www.symmetryforhealth.com. It's about restoring posture so body can function as meant. Program begins with an alignment evaluation and from that a custom tailored program is designed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Orthotics- for both running and biking. Consider the way they are cast. Some are cast standing up in the plaster, some are cast standing on a pad where the image and pressure points are fed into a computer to calculate the correction. Orthodics casted while the feet were in neutral position makes most sense. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Orthotics- Dr. Altschuler in Santa Monica. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hellerworks-works on aligning the muscles back to where they should be, similar to Rolfing. Helpful with a few things: - getting the muscles into proper alignment - understanding why muscles get out of alignment - working on things to prevent it from re-occurring

Physical Therapy- rub downs or massages on affected areas which include periformus, glutes, IT band, lower back and psoas muscle and tendon (impossible to get at without help). Use an ice cup right on the skin for 5 min. at a time every hour as much as possible. Use a foam roller as much as you can stand on periformus and glutes, and IT band. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Books and teachings of Pete Egoscue. Egoscue.com. He would probably say, that unless you have had some type of trauma, (car crash etc); leg length discrepancy is due to a rotation or tilting of your pelvis/hips. And therein lies the problem. His books: THE EGOSCUE METHOD OF HEALTH THROUGH MOTION and PAIN FREE make real sense and the exercises are simple to follow. Or email him with this message detailing your injury. He works mainly with athletes and his partner has completed the hawaii ironman many times. As athletes themselves, they will be a great starting point, at least. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
