Sciatica Pain is Debilitating

If the sciatic nerve becomes compressed, it can cause numbness, tingling, and severe pains throughout the lower back and/or leg, known as Sciatica.1 The sciatic nerve is surrounded by a type of connective tissue called fascia, the health of which may actually be a very important factor for preventing or overcoming the nerve compression that can result in Sciatica.3 4 5

Generally, the fascial layers are hydrated and spacious enough to allow the sciatic nerve room to sit and function comfortably. However, studies have found that due to injury, poor posture, overuse, and other factors, fascia may become hardened, dehydrated, and thickened and may put pressure on nearby nerves.6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14

Mike Tyson’s Sciatica RELIEF®

Mike Tyson’s struggle with Sciatica gained attention in the Fall of 2022 after being photographed in a wheelchair. He then opened up publicly about his struggles with the condition, which would flare up so severely that he would be unable to walk or even talk.

The boxing legend came to see Dr. Abhinav Gautam in the spring of 2023. By using RELIEF® to address the fascia that was surrounding his sciatic nerve, the procedure was able to release the entrapment and relieve Mike of his symptoms and flare-ups.

“I’ve never been this great. I’m feeling magnificent”
– Mike Tyson after RELIEF®
