You’re a Mum, Not a Machine: How to Handle Sciatica Before It Handles You

2/4/2025

Being a mum is one of the most demanding jobs in the world — and you do it without clocking off. But just because you’re strong, doesn’t mean your back has to carry everything alone.

Here are 3 simple tips to help manage sciatic pain — and support your spine while you care for everyone else:

1. Stretch your hip flexors every morning.
Prolonged sitting (like feeding bub or driving) tightens the hips and pulls on your lower back. Try a gentle lunge stretch to release this tension.

2. Strengthen your core — gently.
Weak core muscles mean your lower back takes the load. Start with deep belly breathing or gentle pelvic tilts — they make a difference.

3. Use heat packs at the end of the day.
A warm compress on your lower back can help soothe inflamed tissues and calm nerve irritation after a long day.

​ We’re here for you — with care that’s safe, gentle, and designed for mums.
