SCIATICA & PIRIFORMIS SYNDROME PROTOCOL
Hybrid Health Performance • Bakersfield, CA
Muscle Therapy + Shockwave + Targeted Recovery Support
Sciatica and piriformis‑related nerve pain are rarely “nerve problems.” They’re mechanical compression problems — caused by tight, weak, or dysfunctional muscles around the sciatic nerve.
This protocol restores space, movement, and stability so the nerve can calm down and the leg can move freely again.

This protocol restores space, movement, and stability so the nerve can calm down and the leg can move freely again.
Phase 1 — Decompression & Pain Reduction (Sessions 1–2)
Goal: Reduce mechanical pressure on the sciatic nerve.
Muscle Therapy Targets
Shockwave Therapy (Included Every Session)Shockwave is used to:
Mobility & Breathwork
Expected Outcomes
- Piriformis (primary compression site)
- Glute Medius & Minimus (inhibition + tension)
- Glute Max (extension mechanics)
- Hamstring Origin (nerve glide + sitting pain)
- QL & Lumbar Paraspinals (root irritation)
- TFL / Lateral Hip (pelvic tension)
Shockwave Therapy (Included Every Session)Shockwave is used to:
- reduce hypertonicity
- break up adhesions
- improve circulation
- accelerate tissue healing
- decrease nerve irritation
- piriformis
- glute med/min
- glute max
- hamstring origin
- QL
- lateral hip
Mobility & Breathwork
- nerve‑friendly hip rotation
- decompression breathing
- gentle sciatic nerve glide patterns
Expected Outcomes
- reduced burning pain
- decreased numbness/tingling
- improved sitting tolerance
- less tension in hip + low back
Phase 2 — Movement Restoration (Sessions 3–4)
Goal: Restore healthy hip mechanics and reduce recurrence.
Muscle Therapy Focus
Movement Retraining
Mobility Homework
Expected Outcomes
- glute activation
- hip rotation mechanics
- lumbar decompression
- gait pattern correction
Movement Retraining
- sitting posture
- hip hinge mechanics
- walking pattern correction
- core bracing without compression
Mobility Homework
- hip external rotation
- glute med activation
- hamstring lengthening without nerve irritation
Expected Outcomes
- improved hip mobility
- stronger glute activation
- smoother walking
- reduced flare‑ups
Phase 3 — Stability & Long‑Term Prevention (Sessions 5–6)
Goal: Build resilience so sciatica doesn’t return.
Strength Progressions
Lifestyle Adjustments
Expected Outcomes
- glute med/min stability
- hip hinge strength
- anti‑rotation core work
- single‑leg balance patterns
Lifestyle Adjustments
- sitting strategies
- driving posture
- lifting mechanics
- warm‑up protocols
Expected Outcomes
- confident movement
- stable hips
- fewer flare‑ups
- long‑term nerve comfort
