In this video a physiotherapist demonstrates gentle exercises for a herniated or slipped disc, a form of sciatica. The aim of these exercises is to reduce the pressure on the nerve caused by the slipped disc and to reduce the inflammation around it. This video is part of a series on exercises for sciatica.
