In 2005 I had L5 S1 disk protrusion(MRI) plus left side
sciatica, I could move only on my knees because of pain.

One of the best doctors (Parnell medical center) suggested me
an operation(you know, doctors say it in 90%).
Also he said only time can treat me, not exercises or therapy.

Fortunately I found old method of treatment invented
in France 50 years ago by Zalmanov and that time
Zalmanov baths were widely used for
musculoskeletal and cardiovascular diseases treatments.

- I felt great relief in 1.5 weeks after starting the procedures with this method.
- I was fully recovered in three months.

First question of my GP(he filled papers for ACC for me)
when he met me couple years later was how I've cured my sciatica,when
I described what I did he said he doesn't know about this method.

I hope this info will help to people if they have similar problems

Happy Easter Limpopo, love your name by the way, first Limpopo I've met. I did a quick google for the Zalmanov Method and it involves taking a hot bath in turpentine--sounds intriguing. And, it has a connection to the Noble prize, I wonder if Al Gore had a hand in it's invention? I'll see if I can sneak some into the hot-tub, beats getting a hip-replacement. Have you read any of Dr. Sarno's books on the topic of back-pain?

Cheers, may the Easter Bunny be good to you.

“Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.”

Haruki Murakami, What I Talk About When I Talk About Running

Thanks for that reference Allan, I always wondered where that came from, I'll update it in my sig.
