Solve-Sciatica™
The Complete Clinical System
No matter how acute the pain, or how long they’ve been struggling, you can confidently help patients of any age end “unfixable” sciatica without an overwhelming process.
Even if you’re a new grad PT or offer Telehealth/hybrid physical therapy
What Clinicians Are Saying…
What A LOT of
brilliant physical therapists do not like to talk about…
Is how overwhelming it can be to freeze, like a deer in the headlights, when a patient can’t even get comfortable or off the treatment table because of raging sciatica pain.
Here’s what a lot my clients admit to:
“Sometimes I kinda panic and DREAD when I see these patients on my schedule & my brain turns off!”'
“I can’t stand constantly second guessing myself when these patients walk in… I’m sick of having to reinvent the wheel every session… it’s exhausting”
“I’m not sure why I can get results for some sciatica patients yet others with the same symptoms, get flared up or don’t respond.”
“I notice that these patients cancel/no show A LOT…”
“I get really frustrated when the patient is still in A LOT of pain and I’m not meeting their expectations even though, clinically, I’m doing the best I can… I feel really bad whenever I let my patients down.”
This clinical scenario can have the most seasoned clinician, no matter their credentials or clinical success, questioning themselves and their understanding of back pain rehab.
A BUNCH of Con-Ed Courses Are NOT Equipping Us To Solve this Problem For Our Patients…
The REALLY sad part is A LOT of highly ambitious physical therapists (including myself) who’ve taken a BUNCH of con-ed courses, invested thousands of dollars, and countless hours trying to offer the best possible care for these patients…
STILL feel totally unprepared for the realities of acute spine rehab.
And the last thing we want as physical therapists, is a patient leaving our clinic in even MORE pain, feeling frustrated, angry, and hopeless.
Its a terrible feeling to think you couldn’t help despite all of your knowledge and education…
But most of all, it REALLY sucks to think that you may get a bad review and to know that you’re just another medical professional on their long list of people that couldn’t help them (but you can, and I’m getting to how).
So if you’re feeling even a little bit embarrassed or down on yourself for not knowing exactly how to help these patients with overwhelming sciatica… just know that
one, PT school didn’t prepare us for this and two, you’re not alone.
To figure this out,
here’s what great
Physical Therapists
(like you) are trying…
McKenzie repeated extensions and hope it works because sometimes it doesn’t work or really flares their symptoms 😬
The McGill Big-3 exercises to “build up their core” but some patients can barely do it without pain and for the patients who can, it doesn’t seem to have any lasting results.
Soft tissue mobs, traction, breathing techniques to help relieve pain & muscle tone but as soon as they try to move, they get this dagger-like pain ⚡️ and can barely get off the table.
K-Tape, Graston Technique, dry needling, cupping, Mulligan/Maitland/ Kaltenbourn joint mobilizations all with some temporary relief, yet now patients expect these passive modalities and its hard to transition to what really matters😑… active care!
Nerve flossing & nerve gliding techniques but too many acute sciatica cases can barely tolerate it and a some get REALLY flared up… so now they shy away from these techniques with those acute cases.
Integrating Pain Neuroscience Education (PNE), to teach patients about the amygdala, perception of threat, and how pain is an output of the brain 🧠. Yet all you get is a blank stare &/or the dreaded
“so you’re saying it’s all in my head?” response 😬
This System ENDS The Guessing-Game So You Can Spark Your Own Clinical Genius and Get Life Changing Results Your Patients Deserve.
Here’s what I’m NOT going to do…
❌ I’m NOT going to teach you 😒 “The 3 best sciatica exercises you’re not prescribing” and
❌ I am NOT going to teach you the next era of manual therapy…
Instead,
You’ll learn a simple and clear system that’s way more practical, diverse, and effective than any other sciatica course in the Physical Therapy industry today.
You’ll have a solution for every part of a TOUGH sciatica evaluation.
And everything you’ll learn is extremely adaptable to fit different patient needs & various rehab acronyms (DNS, PRI, SFMA, FRC etc)
You can solve decades of “unfixable” sciatica for patients who have been let down and even gaslit by other medical providers.
AND, you can learn it all without breaking the bank in a residency + 5 weekend courses… even if you’re fresh out of PT school.
“This helped my brain not jump all over the place
when someone with acute back pain comes in the door…I panic a LOT less, which is amazing!
AND I have a lot more confidence when talking with my clients. Instead of just thinking "AH PRONE EXTENSIONS", it actually helped me ask the right questions, which further helped guide me in what to do on my objective exam.”
Dr. Kayla Nguyen PT, DPT
owner of Rise Physio & Performance
Imagine 6 Months From Now…👇🏽
You no longer feel anxious or panic 😱 when you see these patients on your schedule, but rather you’re actually excited 😊 because you know exactly what to do and how to pivot.
You hear yourself sounding way more confident teaching patients exactly how to re-take control, stop debilitating pain, and what to expect from an ACTIVE plan of care.
You know how to help the most overwhelming acute patients (“who’ve tried everything”) find immediate relief then turn to you and say “it can’t be that easy… where the f**k have you been all my life?”
You’re not just confident handling these cases but more importantly, you no longer feel bad or get burnt out by patients with that “quick! fix-me!” energy 😫 who you just can’t help despite being on your A-game…
Deep down you always KNEW that no matter how good you get… you can’t help EVERYONE… 🤷🏽♂️
But now because you’re so secure in your clinical reasoning, you no longer feel obligated to “people-please” difficult patients, and are able to let them go without letting self-doubt take over and feeling like YOU let them down.
You can now communicate your clinical process so clearly that you get to work with more patients that are willing to put in the work toward a long-term solution…
And THAT has re-ignited the passion for your work!
You’re so confident coaching these sciatica cases, that for the first time EVER, you’re considering starting your own solo out-of-network practice and throwing up the deuces ✌🏽to the rat-race insurance clinic life.
Now, not only can you dominate in-person PT sessions, but you can also bring tremendous value via Telehealth &/or hybrid services which opens up a whole new world of opportunities for you.
You no longer second guess every clinical decision you make and you don’t desperately search for random techniques & exercises on the internet outside of the clinic hoping for the best.
You now have a structured yet flexible process that you can keep referring back to while molding it to fit you & your patients’ needs.
Not only are you more relaxed and confident while getting great results for patients, but you can now easily teach this to a colleague or a student and watch them get crazy results too! Which is a whole new world of fulfillment.
If you’re a clinic owner, now you have a standard system that all staff PTs can use to manage acute sciatica/LBP (regardless of their preferred treatment approach).
You now have the tools to polish your clinic’s continuity of care so that patients know that all staff PTs are on the same page about their care, because everyone is speaking the same language.
Your patients are ranting and raving about you so much that they now refer to you as “The Back Pain Expert” of their community.
THAT is what I’m saying is available to you now… right now.
AND it doesn’t have to take you 1-2 years + thousands of con-ed $$ to figure out.
“I hear myself sounding more confident when explaining how to reduce pain in the acute phase
while laying the foundation for the entire plan of care. My patients are happy, bought in to our plan, and appreciate what I’m bringing to the table…. Learning new approaches to performing the subjective and objective exams,
has made me excited to see these types of cases on my schedule for the first time in years!”

A little about the Instructor
Dr. Ramez Antoun PT, DPT, OMT, IPNFA
Hey! I’m Ramez, but please call me "Mez". I'm a physical therapist & strength coach specializing in back pain rehab. I’m best known for my unmatched ability to integrate orthopedics, neuro PT, and strength & conditioning in simple yet actionable ways for physical therapists at any level.
I’ve been a consultant to a Major League Baseball organization, a private hospital, various elite athletes ranging from martial artists, runners, weightlifters, and powerlifters.
With the PT industry becoming more divided by contrarians and overcomplicated gurus, I’m deeply committed to teaching physical therapists practical info to help them see past the industry bullshit to stop wasting their time/energy, con-ed $$ and get real results.
I’ve developed a simple system that will spark your clinical creativity, get your patients results that last, and elevate your career.
Solve-Sciatica: The Complete Clinical System

If you do the work and aren't happy with your purchase at the end of the 30 days. I will refund your investment.
Because if you're not getting any clinical value or real results with your patients, I don’t want your money.
Who’s a good fit for Solve-Sciatica™?
You should invest in Solve-Sciatica™ if…
✅ You’re a physical therapy clinic owner who’s comfortable working with these tough acute sciatica cases. Although your results are decent… they’re not as consistent as you’d like them to be and you don’t have the time to figure out how to train new staff PTs to establish a clinic standard to manage these acute patients and minimize liability.
✅ You're a relatively new physical therapist (new grad or 1-5 years out of PT school) and you’ve taken a bunch of great con-ed courses yet you’re still very uncomfortable when that acute sciatica/LBP patient walks into the clinic to see you.
✅ You’re a seasoned physical therapist with a lot of experience (practicing for 10-20+ years) and a boat load of con-ed courses under your belt. You’re comfortable in the clinic and you don’t really “panic” anymore with acute spine patients, but your results with these patients are a bit scattered and inconsistent at best.
WHO IT’S NOT FOR
Solve-Sciatica™ is NOT for all clinician… and there are some people who SHOULD NOT buy this course.
Please DO NOT invest in Solve-Sciatica™ if any of the following apply to you:
❌ You’re a Physical Therapist who is ONLY interested in learning new exercises & manual techniques.
❌ You’re a physical therapy assistant and NONE of the PTs you work with are interested in taking this course with you… The Solve-Sciatica™ course is eval/assessment heavy.
❌ You’re a Physical Therapist looking for quick-fix strategies and you’re NOT interested in coaching patients
❌ You’re a Physical Therapist JUST looking to check the box for your CEUs requirements.
❌ You're a Physical Therapist interested in bashing other rehab systems for credibility, confrontation & entertainment 👎🏽 (there will be none of that here)
❌ You're a Physical Therapist interested in being "the research p-value police" 🚨
DO NOT invest in Solve Sciatica™ if you can’t get on board with these MUST-HAVE con-ed mindsets 👇🏽
You gotta do the work beyond watching videos for intellectual candy!
While I make it as easy and straightforward as possible, if you can't put aside a few hours a week to work through the content, put it into clinical practice, this course is not for you. You have to be willing to apply this content to your patients, fail, reflect, go back to the content, ask for feedback in the private Facebook group, and try again and again and again… this is what it takes to excel in our line of work and if you’re not willing to do that then Solve-Sciatica™ simply is not for you.
Don’t expect to be able to help EVERY patient with ONE system alone!
The best clinicians I know are well versed in various models and no matter what anyone tells you there is no rehab model that has ALL the answers. The same principle applies to The Solve-Sciatica™ system. What I can promise you is that if you follow the step-by-step system laid out in this course, you’ll finally be able to understand why some patients respond better to certain rehab methods and why others don’t while allowing you to tap into your own clinical creativity.
Let’s keep it real, The Solve-Sciatica™ course isn’t going anywhere (but the price IS going up soon)…
But the opportunity to level up your clinical skills with tough sciatica/LBP cases is here today - and its up to you to decide if you're finally ready to level up your clinical skills in a more strategic, sustainable, and time effective way.
And let's continue to keep it real – you wouldn't have read this far if you weren't serious about this…
Ready to make moves towards confidently solving "unfixable" sciatica, no matter how acute the pain, how long they’ve been struggling, or how old the patient?
I’ve got your back (see what I did there? 😉)
Let’s do this.
What clinicians are saying...
This program helped me be more structured and systematic when evaluating low back cases. In general, the course material was great! It’s honestly one of the best courses I have taken and very practical. I love the aspect of taking different approaches and being able to use what is best for each client.
Justin Vaidyan PT, DPT Founder & CEO of Arise Physical Therapy
The program helped to pull me back to the basics and recognize that patterns and lifestyle are super important and usually a better place to start. I was able to recognize things in my patients that I wouldn't notice before and give them easy changes to make to start reducing pain right away. I loved practical application that we can use right away. If you’re on the fence I’d say absolutely do the course, especially if you are a younger clinician. This helps you grow in your critical thinking skills and pattern recognition which will be super beneficial to your long term abilities as a clinician. This was the best CEU course I’ve taken yet.
Dr. Kelsey Lynch PT, DPT, CSCS
This program gave so much structure to the acute LBP eval! It really helped me to categorize patients systematically while still thinking outside the box for individualized care. What I loved the most was the case studies that were used throughout. If you’re on the fence about this course you have to register today! This is one of the best continuing education courses I've ever taken (and I'm a con ed junkie)! I'm someone who used to stress out when I saw an acute low back pain eval on my schedule but now I feel so much more confident and am excited for them. The only question I’m left with is, why aren't they teaching this system in PT school?
- Dr. Rachel Jerozal PT, DPT - Founder of Durham Pelvic PT
"Regardless of how confident you feel in treating acute low back pain, you need this course. The value provided by Mez is unbelievable, and the content you have access to is immensely helpful in every possible scenario. Every uncomfortable or uncertain moment you have had when someone is wriggling in pain in your office, Mez has accounted for and covers it in this course. He gives you the playbook to troubleshoot with objectivity rather than guesswork so you can get your patients on the right track faster. Mez brings a level of passion that is special, and having access to the years worth of work he’s done and knowledge he’s acquired should not be passed up. Sign up."
- Dr. Britt Smith, PT, DPT, LMT, CLT, CFSC
Co-Founder of Keep It Moving Physical Therapy & Wellness
This course gave me an excellent road map and helped my brain not jump all over the place when someone who has acute back pain comes in the door. Instead of just thinking "AH PRONE EXTENSIONS", it actually helped me ask the right questions, which further helped guide me in what to do on my objective exam. I panic a LOT less, which is amazing. AND I have a lot more confidence when talking with my clients about realistic expectations with their back pain. Even has someone who has been practicing for 9 years, it was so incredibly refreshing to have an instructor who was caring, compassionate, a clear speaker, an expert in the field, and somehow gracefully is capable of blending the art and science of acute low back pain. Mez, truly, your course is SO great. It was so refreshing to have someone remind me that you don't have to be all or nothing. And acute back pain WAS a weak point of mine. Having the online course as a resource that I can refer to, go over, and hone in on, is EVERYTHING. Thank you for being such a brilliant teacher. Your vibe, how you speak, and how you present, it really resonates with me."
- Dr. Kayla Nguyen PT, DPT owner of Rise Physio & Performance
This program has completely changed how I assess, plan for, and treat my patients. I have found that having the course visuals is a game changer for patient education. I have found that removing their triggers on day one gets immediate buy-in. Breaking down each situation (trigger) has been a game changer for patient education and how they are thinking for themselves. It has given be a HUGE new group of tools to add to my tool box. I loved the simplicity of the strategies and explanations that were very successful. The online platform was awesome for me to watch one time through, take notes and then hear it again, I was able to digest much more info the second time. I like having the online videos & reference that I can look back on at any time. I was able to implement the tools, tips and strategies and had tremendous immediate results with the "overwhelming" acute patient after even watching the first video and crushed it even after just 1 week. I was able to be calm, grounded and more relaxed for the patient during their high stress feeling when they were in a lot of pain. I received my moneys worth/ value in the first week. I loved the course, one of the best ones ever!!"
- Todd Houghton PT, CSCS - Owner & CEO of Houghton Physical Therapy (Practicing PT & clinic owner for 20+ years)
This course gave me a greater toolkit for approaching low back pain. I appreciated Mez discussing client cases (even humbly mentioning his errors with patient cases and what the right steps were for correcting these errors). This made this topic more approachable, and normalized the experience of at times feeling overwhelmed by low back pain complexity. I previously did not give as much weight to patients' ergonomic setups and daily activities (or inactivity). This would have decreased the effectiveness of any exercise program, manual technique, or intervention. But because of this, I am able to dramatically decrease low back pain for patients even before "treating" them! If you’re on the fence, all I can say is, DO IT! Definitely worthwhile in learning a quick and easy to understand framework, and super helpful to learn about easy to implement environmental/ergonomic changes individuals can make for big results. Mez synthesizes intelligent approaches with physical therapy techniques with emotionally intelligent leadership with his patient stories, and embodies the art of skillfully coaching patients without overwhelming them with excess information.
Christopher Lee OTR/L CSCS - Owner of Chris Lee Fitness
Prior to getting the program my evaluations were unstructured and disorganized missing a framework to which I could anchor myself to. After learning the Neuro-ortho framework my treatment flow improved exponentially, I stopped doing guess work and started making sound clinical decisions geared towards resolution. Now I'm way more confident and able to not only guide my patients but make them feel empowered and give them control over their pain. What I loved the most was how Dr Ramez delivers the course. He's the best mentor a clinician could ask for. I felt welcomed despite only having a few years of experience. I would highly recommend this program for anyone who wants to develop their clinical skills related to not only management of acute LBP but also a framework for treatments. Dr Ramez's wealth of knowledge goes way beyond LBP. The program gave me confidence and reassurance in my decision making process.
Amin szymaniak LMT Owner of Lionheart Performance Lab
"Ramez's ability to simplify an intensive knowledge base with such passion and interpersonal skills creates a gold standard for learning."
- Dr. Zak Gabor PT, DPT, CSCS, USA-W, Founder of The LevelUp Initiative
"I’ve become more well-rounded in my thinking strategies and clinical reasoning, and I’ve been able to be more creative in my treatment sessions. Ramez’s ability to ask great questions and help problem solve is top notch."
- Dr. Danielle Honnett PT, DPT, SCS, CSCS
"I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to put skills you already have into a model that works better for you."
- Dr. Nate Felton PT, DPT
"Before this course, I was at a loss with these REALLY acute low back pain patients because everything hurt... Typically I'd end up referring them out. But when imaging came back negative, I would chalk it up to "pain science" when our PT sessions 'caused a flare up'... This content has helped me understand why & filled in those gaps beautifully."

"This course is amazing. Best class I've taken in such a long time."
— Michele PT, ATC (Practicing for 32 years - Not actual photo)
