We all know we need to move. Sitting is one of the worst things we can do except when resting. If you are like me, I will find ways to procrastinate exercise, I’ll make up excuses; “I’m too busy” “I don’t feel like it” “Takes too much time”. Well now I don’t have any excuses, I love this 4 minute exercise routine to help keep me young. I hope you do too!


Is Your Sciatic Pain a Pain in the Butt?

Some Sciatic pain literally is from the gluteal/butt region originating from the piriformis muscle.

Common causes are inflammation from the following possibilities:   

1.  Acute injury

2.  One Leg is shorter than the other

3.  Foot problem (flat feet, forefoot varus (where the neutral position of the forefoot is inverted)

4. Other:

  • Abdominal infections

  • localized infections

  • Toxic overload from:   heavy metals, processed foods,  antibiotics, environmental toxins, etc
