I had a bulging L5 disc for over a year giving me daily sciatic pain, unbearably tight hamstrings and other difficulies. Had an epidural and 9 months of physio which didn't work. Still had sciatic pain almost daily. 2 appointments with Val 3+ months ago and I've not had sciatica since. The whole L5 area has calmed down as a result and have been pain free for around 3 months - not even an ache. Highly recommend giving Val a try if you have similar issues, he is an absolute magician at his craft.
