Hi,
The unit helped a lot when I first began using it but when I was prescribed Gabapentin I wasn’t sure if one counteracted the other so I stopped using the sciaticalm unit.
The thinking was that the Gabapentin calmed the nerve whereas the sciaticalm “jumbled” them up, was I right or was I wrong?
When using the sciaticalm I used the small strap behind the knee which was great for relieving the pain.Joan

Hi
I thank you for this sciaticalm I have used this everyday since purchase I am delighted with feel I am now getting bit of relief, but I find the straps cumbersome and difficult to use, may I suggest a clip fastener being used in conjuction with your ownclothes would be preferable.

I am now well on the way to a complete recovery – Bob Cooke
I first used the Sciaticalm in the evening when I was in considerable pain. I used the long strap and adjusted the position over my lower spine until I found the point where I felt the most sensation. This was a not unpleasant tingling and the position was a little to the left of my lower spine. (My sciatica was affecting my left leg and lower back). I used the device for about the ten minutes recommended and although I did not feel immediate relief, the pain quickly subsided and within a short time I fell asleep. After about an hour I awoke, pain free.
I used the device several times after the pain had become almost unbearable, and it worked on every occasion. I am now well on the way to a complete recovery.Many thanks and best regards,
Bob Cooke
So glad I found it on the web – Liz Cowie
Device seems to help my hip pain – I actually just get on best holding it without the strap as that way I can move it around. So glad I found it on the web.

I’m delighted with it and have recommended it to any pain suffering friends! – Heather Briggs
Hi,
I have found the device invaluable and I now wouldn’t like to be without it. After 4-6 weeks of bad sciatic pain down my right leg I felt almost immediate relief after using the device for the first time and the pain has lessened the more I’ve used it -I’ve been using it now for a couple of weeks and am now pain free most of the time.I don’t really use either of the straps as I just place the sciaticalm under the waistband of my trousers and sit for 10 mins. I haven’t tried it behind the knee as It was working on the spine.
I’ve hardly taken a painkiller since I started using it so I’m delighted with it and have recommended it to any pain suffering friends!
Thanks!

“thank you Sciaticalm” – Sarah Smith
A good little gadget to carry around with you. At the start of my back was really bad, I couldn’t straighten up and walking a few paces was agony. In the first weeks I couldn’t really say whether sciaticalm was working or not. Now I am improving I can say it is very soothing on my hip and back. I tend not to use the strap though, I like to hold it on the still sore area and move it around a little and then I can get more pressure on the pain. So thank you Sciaticalm and thank you to the lady who replaced the top when I lost the spring!

Certainly seems to be helping in greatly reducing the pain and tiredness – Patrick Fuller
Am very pleased with your after sales service in quickly replacing a faulty unit.. I am using the short strap as the symptoms are mainly at the thigh and back of my leg. Certainly seems to be helping in greatly reducing the pain and tiredness. Would recommend the appliance.

Fantastic – John Wilson
‘Fantastic’! After years of pain I found, after using it for a week or so, that the numbness down the outside of my left leg had all but gone and the pain was subsiding to the point where I could sleep. Just being able to do this has made a great difference to my life.
