    without bending knees etc properly. Trouble is the pain didn't kick in for a couple of days. The pain's almost gone now.

    try landing on a hammer on your back on the edge of an embackment after failing out of a tree because the branch you are sitting on broke. that happened to me when i was a kid & couldn't run for a year.

    @creaky, did you get a diagnosis on your back?

    @garmoon, are you sure it is true sciatica and not piriformis syndrome? The symptoms are similar, but piriformis syndrome can be greatly alleviated by targeted stretches. Have you ever done the straight leg raise test?

    Eva, are you in the medical profession? You seem to have a pretty handy knowledge of lots of things anatomical ^.^

    That's cool. Although, I'm not one for the spiritual side of things that tends to come with the term "holistic".
