Are you dealing with persistent hamstring pain that just won't seem to go away, even with stretching or traditional treatments? Welcome to the Restoring Human Movement podcast! Today, we're joined by Dr. Dawne, who will help us solve the 'Hamstring Mystery' by exploring two often-overlooked culprits: nerve referral and core stability.

Many times, what feels like a hamstring issue could actually be pain originating from your lower back, referring down the leg – a common phenomenon Dr. Dawne will explain in detail. Beyond that, she'll highlight the critical role core stability plays in supporting your entire kinetic chain and how a weak or inefficient core can contribute to chronic hamstring problems.

If you're tired of recurring hamstring issues and want a fresh perspective on pain relief and long-term recovery, this episode with Dr. Dawne is a must-listen. Tune in to understand the complex interplay between your nerves, core, and those stubborn hamstring aches, and discover why looking beyond the muscle itself can lead to lasting solutions.

In this episode, Dr. Sebastian Gonzales DC breaks down the three most commonly recommended exercises for lower back strength, as listed by major fitness websites: the bird dog, deadlift (with good form), and the superman. While two of these have strong biomechanical backing, one raises a red flag—especially for those with disc-related pain or sensitivity to lumbar extension. Dr. G shares his professional perspective on why the glute bridge is a smarter, safer alternative to the superman and how it better engages key stabilizing muscles without provoking pain. This is a must-listen for anyone recovering from low back issues or coaching people through spine-safe core work.
