My experience with your product has been very positive. I had been dealing with Sciatica for 10 years. Over the 10 year period I had tried acupuncture, deep tissue massage, Bencomin, and even back surgery to release my suffering but to no avail. My symptoms were such that I could not walk 100 yards without needing to turn around and come back to the house because the sciatic nerve on my right side was just too painful. The sensation would usually gather between my calf and ankle. My sciatica would only flair up when I tried to walk, or stand in one place. I was fortunate in that it didn’t bother me when I was sitting or lying down.
About a year ago I read about Curcumin on-line and decided to give it a try. A natural remedy that decreased inflammation made a lot of sense to me. For the first six months I took two capsules a day every morning. After which I would walk 10,000 steps. (I had just gotten a new Fit Bit to encourage me to walk.) Many times during my walk I would have to stop and stretch backwards to relieve the building sciatic sensation. Each day I had to stretch between 5 and 20 times for about a minute to complete my walking session. Each time I stretched I was able to walk at least 1,000 more steps before I had to do it again. Getting a good night’s rest was important in terms of the numbers of times I would have to stop and stretch in order to keep going. For with good rest, I noticed that I would have to stretch a fewer number of times.
After about 8 months, listening to my intuition, I decreased the dose to one capsule a day. This worked and after a few days of doing this, I was able to do my 10,000 steps without having to stretch once. Thus now I am pleased to say that the sciatic problem that had plagued me for 10 years is for the last four months well under control. The most happy thing about my progress with the Curcumin is that I can now stand, hike and dance without complaint. (Knock on wood and keep taking my Curcumin each morning.)
Thank you so much for your product, it has worked wonders for me.
