What are the Spiritual Causes of Sciatica?
Before I explain about the spiritual causes of sciatica, let’s first find out what sciatica actually is.
Sciatica is physically created by pressure on the longest and thickest nerve in the body. This can become aggravated by the pressure from a ‘slipped’ disc or inflamed muscle.
The spinal areas involved with sciatica are often the intervertebral discs in the lumbar area of the spine which when under pressure, squeeze out against the sciatic nerve. As the body translates emotional pain into physical sensations, deep emotional pain translates to strong physical pain.
Simply put, the spiritual or metaphysical causes of sciatica come from our negative beliefs and past experiences, which may have been triggered consciously or unconsciously.
Feeling under pressure is physically expressed as pressure on the sciatic nerve. Inflammation is another word for anger and rage, especially when it cannot be expressed. The piriformis muscle in the buttock can become inflamed and so agitating the sciatic nerve which passes next to or through it.  The referred pain is very often down the back of the leg. However, it can appear in the pelvis or other parts of the leg and the foot.
A few negative emotions behind the spiritual cause of sciatica are:
- Anxiety regarding creative abilities
- Feeling emotionally or physically invaded by the family.
- Blocked communication causes internal anger and rage.
- Accepting self as a family scapegoat with no right to speak up.
- Being hypocritical with self by disregarding one’s own desires.
- Carrying grudges and refusing to submit to someone or an idea.
- Sciatica can express a lack of joy in life. For some, seeing life as dull.
- Fear of money. Maybe comfortable financially but may have a fear of losing it.
- Overachievers and perfectionists have hidden beliefs that they are not good enough. Therefore have to prove themselves. This never works as what they are really seeking is love and recognition.
Using my own unique methods I am able to help you pinpoint the exact emotions that are causing your sciatica and to safely release the crystalised energies of these emotions and release your need to suffer the related pain and discomfort. Previous clients have reported the pain having ceased shortly after a session.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The information above is only a small representation of the many metaphysical or spiritual causes of sciatica. I offer them to you in the hope that you may realise that your present circumstances, need not be your future ones. If you would like to begin to re-empower yourself, then I can help you speed up the process. Would you like to transform your life? Click the button below to go to my appointments page and let’s begin to move towards a healthier, happier version of yourself.

About My Work & How I Could Help You
My work as a Soul Whisperer is to help you to communicate with your soul’s needs and desires. Your current health challenges are a result of a build-up of unresolved negative emotions and pre-programming, often from your childhood.  Your soul expresses these unresolved negative emotions first through your thoughts. Should you fail to listen to the messages that are crying out to be heard, these messages become stronger and harder for you to ignore. They then become manifestations of pain, discomfort or ill-health. Your soul must find a way to get you to take action.
Your Soul probably brought you to my website today!
After more than 30 years as a therapist, I have devised my own unique and efficient ways of assisting my clients back into alignment. This means that, if you chose to work with me, I will look for the emotional or energetic root cause of your health or well-being challenge and together, using the Living Lens we will work on clearing the blockages within your system and bringing back harmony. You can learn more about my journey to the work I do today on my About Page.

Very interesting. My family are back from a month of holiday being away and 1-2 days before they came back it happened again. The last time it happened was when we first moved in.
Time to speak your truth and call back your power. If you want assistance:https://energetic-wisdom.co.uk/appointments/
I have just recently been suffering from what seems to be a sciatica pain, starting in the left side of my lower abdomen & then going down my leg. There has been a big change recently as I moved out of my parents place , I dnt knw if it is related to my emotions. I don’t know how to get rid of this pain
The sciatica will be relating to the emotions that you are going through. If you want assistance you can book at https://energetic-wisdom.co.uk/appointments/
Do you work psychically or psychologically? Have you read Dr John Sarno Healing Back pain?
I know back pain anxiety depression to be caused by my subconscious emotions. I haven’t been able to access this rage for over 35 years.
What would you do that is different than anyone else to clear my pain?
Hi Toni, I have read Dr John Santo’s vey good book. What he says is very true. However, I can take this to a much higher level by discovering where the pain has originated, the feelings that caused the pain, together with a method of re-empowering the individual. All this can happen in a comparatively short time. Your back pain has been trying to express your emotional pain as it does love you and this has been the only way to get your attention.
Hi
I have not had sciatic problems in over five years till now. I have a mild case of scoliosis but nothing severe. I experienced sharp pain from my lower back to my right leg. That when I would try to stand up it would put me in tears. How can I be done with this pain? Are you praying and God is giving you these revelations?
Hi Adrienne, I work by giving you back the power to heal yourself. God is in you. The information is in my website. Also how to book an appointment.
Thank you for this information, this really helps. I am facing sciatica nerve issues from past two years and have been able to manage it somehow till now. But after delivering my twin babies, my sciatica nerve pain has aggravated like never before. From the above information, I can also make out that I am fearful of losing money and feel insecure about being financially dependant on others. I also feel that I have a great need for recognition and I do all possible tasks to try to get attention from others. I feel jealous and raged when I don’t get it. Could this be one of the reasons for my pain?
Hello Shweta. Yes those painful feelings can definitely trigger sciatica.
I am happy to have found this site. I have been having sciatica issues the last few years & am ready to heal & continue to keep up with my little ones. Thank you
You are very welcome Marisa.
I have severe pain on my left side of my lower to mid back just under the bottom rib. I have scoliosis and an injury that may have contributed to it. That side is bigger than the other side. The right side is probably 2/3 the thickness of my left lower back. It has not gone away in four years when it developed after a fall while traveling to the arctic circle. What can I do to heal?
Hello Daphne,
The problem seems to relate to the spleen where there has been exaggerated concern or worry. Even, some sort of obsession coming down from your mother’s line. It may not have been helped by an excessive male influence in the past.
My mother is suffering tremendously with sciatica I know that she had some trauma when she was very very young and before my grandparents adopted her I’m sure and she’s always been a person that felt like a victim her whole life in a lot of different ways yet she is an overachiever as well and then her and my dad divorced after 46 years and it’s been about 10 years and every time her life seems to get a little bit good this kind of stuff crops up and I believe that it’s some of it’s psychological that it’s creating that and I just don’t know how to help her and I know each is our own journey but when it’s your family member you want to try and help
I can see where the sciatica is coming from after reading your mother’s circumstances. As we cannot “fix” those close to us, I feel by booking an appointment there is an opportunity of improving her quality of life.
Wow! Thank you so much for tbis information. I have been experiencing some pain in my low back and buttocks for a week or 2. It is on my right side. Sometimes my right hip hurts too. Its mostly my right buttocks. I keep stretching and taking warm epsom salt baths to help. Any advice you could give me on how to aleviate the pain would be greatly appreciated. *Ive also been going through a spiritual awakening. It probably started in August or September of 2020. It got really intense on 1/31/21 🤯
Hi Ana, you are experiencing challenges from the male energy, which you may be holding back from expressing due to a fear of offending or losing out. This will go back to your relationship with your father.
Hello Tony,
I have a bit of a unusual question. I struggle from tight hamstrings, knowing the nerve affected by the hamstrings is the sciatic nerve I’m wondering if these could be related. I’ve been dancing ballet and practicing yoga for years and still I don’t manage to even being close to touching my feet. I don’t experience any struggle with flexibility any other place in my body. Since this has been a insecurity and something on my mind for years I hope you can help.
Best,
Hello Amalie,
Although not directly related to thee sciatic nerve there is a similar emotional context. The hamstring relates to a deep conflict between what you think you should be doing or going and what your “inner voice” is saying that what it wants you to do. The result is excessive self-control and fear of letting go.
Have you written a book on spiritual causes of ailments?
No Diana, I haven’t. I gather information at this moment. However, I do have a method of addressing the feelings that caused the condition in the first place, so the body no longer needs to express the pain or discomfort. As the method works so well I am super-busy, which would not give me time to write a book at present.
Is sciatica pain really because of emotional disturbance? What can i do to cure it?
Hello Aman, thank you for your enquiry. there is always an emotional reason for back pain. When addressed the body no longer needs to express it. I posted this blog and video because not only do I get to the root cause but have the means to communicate with the body in order for it to release the pain. The beauty of this method is that I can work by video ( zoom) as if you were in the same room as me. Here is the link https://energetic-wisdom.co.uk/appointments/ There is an offer on Zoom of 4 sessions for the price of 3. Warm wishes Tony
I suffer from excruciating pain due to sciatica, herniated discs. I was diagnosed with lumbar stenosis and disc degeneration. I currently have numbness down the side of my left leg and my calf has been having crazy muscle spasms. The muscle constantly beats like a heartbeat and wakes me up in the night. I have anxiety as well and feel depressed from this. And I just don’t even know what to do anymore. I was feeling so good again and than out of nowhere I’m in pain. It feels so debilitating and I don’t want surgery. I don’t want a steroid shot. I want to heal myself mentally. My sister found you online. Are you familiar with people having muscle spasms as well due to the compressed nerves?
Hi Jennifer. Yes I have had a few clients with similar symptoms. There will have been something going on in your life to come back out of nowhere. I address the cause so the body no longer needs to express the pain that you are going through.
Wow! I watched your video and was amazed. I relate to almost everything, it was so accurate, it was as if you knew me!
Time to call back your power and speak your truth Hazel.
I’ve had sciatica and low back pain off and on after I started peritoniel dialysis about a year ago. When I sleep, I sleep on my back. Don’t know if this causes it or not. I have been under a lot of stress lately. My son has been hospitalized over this past month. He’s now living in a group home. He’s 44 years old. I’m 77. All this has devastated me. It feels like I have a hole in my heart. I definitely can relate to your comments about how one feels emotionally about life and how it can affect a person physically. So, that’s where I’m at.
Dear Anthony,
So sorry to hear about your son. It must be very painful for you. Sciatica very often happens to kind gentle people who carry hidden feelings of resentment or anger that they feel they should not express.
I may be able to help you with this, as I now work mainly by Zoom and you can find out more on this page of my website https://energetic-wisdom.co.uk/appointments/
Or should you like to discuss your situation more, you can reach me by email using my Contact form.
Warm wishes
Tony
A truly interesting article. I suffer from intermittent lower back pain.
Keeps making me feel like a fool, especially on pain free days.
I self reikied myself and it actually made it worse.
You have verified my thoughts that is was more than physical.
Thank you
Maureen
Hello Maureen, Thanks for commenting. If you need help in clearing the pain, and you are not close enough to meet with me in person (in Hampshire) I can meet you online. See my appointments page for details.
Warm regards
Tony
