That's a great post! I am so happy to hear how much better you are doing :) I worked with a woman who dealt with really bad sciatic after her 3rd pregnancy. She used cold compresses and the BFST wrap. I have used it as well for my lower back pain and love it. For other sufferers out there, here's my recommendation: http://www.kingbrand.com/Sciatica_Treatment.php?REF=1105PV73.192
