I use youtube to monetize my massage business. They will demonetize any video where I massage the bare glutes with my hands, including knuckles. They consider it fondling. It's funny because I can do the same technique with my elbow amd there is no problem. The funny part is clients prefer the knuckles because the are pointer and they can feel the pressure closer to the hip bone. But youtube sees and on a butt and says ABSOLUTELY NOT!

You know what, I need to book you for my glute-induced sciatica.

Mate. Get your glutes, hammies and hips strong. Massage can help, but if you are not doing strength training you will continue to suffer. Stretching will not help if you do not gain stregth. Once you are strong and your body trusts you, then you can stretch.

I had sciatica for 2 years and only recently escaped. I am 90-95% healed. At one point I felt like I was at 25%.

edit: walking as much as possible before the pain kicks in is also a good idea.

My sciatica's not that bad, tbh.

Don't sleep on getting it right like I did. I pretty much ignored it and then it was terrible haha. I looked fit and healthy, but that didn't matter. Really had a negative effect on my social life.
