Foot/calf sciatic numbness and calf spasms
A friend had two seperate l5s1 microdiscectomy(s)
Dating a little over a year ago and 6 months previous to that. She still had pretty severe sciatica and numbness down her whole right leg.
I had the same surgery myself about a decade ago so i knew the solution and I coached her through SSNLP about 6 months ago and it has been fucking MIRACULOUS.
This girl couldn’t reach past her knees 6 months ago and was extremely hesitant to do even bodyweight squats. After several months of yoga she had throbbing sciatica still and an extremely tight/painful/weak lower back.
After a slowly progressed NLP shes up to a 5x3@130 squat and a 5x1 @ 135 for conventional deadlifts. No back pain, no sciatic pain and stronger than shes ever been!
Only thing that bothers her is some numbness/spasming in her calf and foot. This hasn’t improved much in the last few months and she’s wondering if she should go see a specialist - any advice for this one?
