Aloha Carolann,
I find that most muscular pains and aches are relived by doing Yoga on a regular basis; takes the tightness out of your body and keeps it limber.
But be careful, it easy to hurt yourself doing Yoga by pushing too far too soon. If you google (sciatica yoga) it comes up with lots of hits, of course probably best to see a doctor first.

I can only tell you about my own experiences of using the leaf of the noni for sciatica. I had it chronic for two years. and applied the leaf topically. After two nights, I never had sciatica again. It really works. Well, it worked for me. If it doesn't work for you, you might want to see if there are underlying things that may be causing your pain. I have a friend whom the noni leaves didn't work completely on because she has scar tissue build up from paddling canoes all her life. Yes, it definitly helps with sciatica or in my case all together rid me of that ailment believe it or not. Mangosteen is great but it costs alot of money. Noni is free if you can grow it. Journalist don't always take the information right. It says I put it on my hips not the case. I put the leaf on my lower back, shiney side down after softening over a fire or stove. It's frustrating when they don't right down the correct information. Noni is also an excellent hair conditioner. Hawaiian lomi lomi and yoga will probably be helpful when you are not in so much pain. but if you have alot of pain, use the noni leaves first to soften the muscles. It's also great to throw noni leaves in a hot tub.

Health claims were made by the companies marketing the juice in this country that included preventing cancer, lowering blood pressure, and other too good to be true benefits.
Noni's Cancer claims are unfounded according to the American Cancer Society.

Glen,I know a person who lives in HPP,whose dog was given 1 week to live after being diagnosed with thyroid gland cancer.She was giving the dog noni and it lived more than a year after that.Though there is no scientific proof,but I tend to believe that noni helped.
