I didn't know about the McKenzie stretches and will try them. I had a multi level lumbar fusion in 2012 due to bad sciatica. Currently I am in physical therapy for mild sciatica; they are concentrating on strengthening my core which has so far worked. I did find I could reduce sciatica symptoms by riding the bike and that helped for the 10 years leading up to the surgery.
