Q. Can it help with back and leg pain associated with pregnancy? A.
Yes. Using the SACRO WEDGY® is one of the few things pregnant women
can use to help control sciatica & low back pain. There would be a
few changes such as keeping knees bent as opposed to legs straight out
or using a smaller lift - everyone is different so the individual problem
can be addressed. Use common sense - if it is uncomfortable with legs
out, bend knees. One MD Q. Can the SACRO WEDGY® help if I have had back surgery? A.
Yes. Very often surgery still leaves muscles tight & constricting
nerves. Because surgery occurred, favoring one side is common & once
again, muscle balance is affected. Even lying in a hospital bed can create
problems. The sooner you incorporate the Wedgy into regular routines,
the better your chance of having fewer problems. We know the SACRO WEDGY®
will not cure everyone & everything. Nothing does - but it is a simple
way to involve yourself with prevention. Being properly aligned &
relaxed is very important Q. What is "piriformis syndrome" & how can the SACRO WEDGY® help? A. The piriformis muscle is a triangular shaped muscle that attaches to the hip joint & travels into the front of the sacrum. Runners very often experience problems with this muscle because the pounding creates tightness. That's why it is sometimes referred to as a "pain in the butt". To further complicate things, the sciatic nerve travels through or under this muscle & can literally squeeze the nerve causing pain down the legs, knees, (I-T band), heels, anywhere the sciatic nerve travels. The way the sacrum is positioned, while relaxing on the Wedgy, the piriformis muscle has a chance to release & relax. The length of time for a correction varies from person to person. How easily relaxation takes place (it very well could hurt at first), how long the muscle has been in a bind, etc. It's your choice as to how much time you give.
