--- sciatica question (?)
1) Anxiety and stress trigger sympathetic nervous responses that result in all kinds of physiological changes, one of them being increased muscle tone and tightening. This can exacerbate any underlying, existing myofascial condition. 2) Be soft seated ( cushioned comfort) in a chair that promotes good posture ( lumbar support). 3) Acute to chronic leg/buttock pain can be problem enough and can result in affected gait and amongst many other things, a general decrease in quality of life leading to secondary and tertiary problems Although newsgroups are fine for general interest, go see your doctor, chiropractor, PT or MT for proper assessment and treatment. > 1) I'm wondering whether sciatica could ever be caused by psychological > stress, anxiety, depression, etc... > > 2) If it's only because of a continuous pressure over the nerve, what > would you advice someone who's work requires that she sit on her buttocks > for a loooong long time continuously?

I usually suggest the exercise for Piriformis Syndrome, so that if that is what is causing the problem, it can be relieved.

It's called a figure 4 because that's what it looks like when you have the ankle of one leg over the knee of the other.
