Yes, The more I look the more I want to go to Tanninges. I think it's about twenty minutes either way to Sameons or Les Gets.

I reckon about 5 mins to Morillon is the nearest

And a few more

Taninges,,,a pretty little place ...15 minutes from Les Gets 10 minutes from Morrilon in the Le Grand Massif and hour from Grand bornand and Cluzaz and a couple of smaller resorts like Pras de Lys....but you mentioned that ...Phil and Louise at Chalet Hotel La Terrasse in Verchaix who seem to know everyone around

Arinsal is ideal for beginners and is cheap ..they have beginners inclusive packs and the cost of living is affordable..

I quote below from Wikipedia..and this has been my own experience. of course a doctor will have confirmed the diagnosis

"Treatment

When the cause of sciatica is due to a prolapsed or lumbar disc herniation 90% of disc prolapses resolve with no intervention. Treatment of the underlying cause of the compression is needed in cases of epidural abscess, epidural tumors, and cauda equina syndrome.

Although medications are commonly prescribed for the treatment of sciatica, the UK's National Health Service reports that "There is no good evidence from clinical trials to guide the use of analgesics to relieve pain and disability", and suggests that recommendations for analgesic use are extrapolated from guidelines on low back pain.[10] Research has shown no significant difference between placebos, NSAIDs, analgesics, and muscle relaxants. Evidence is lacking in use of opioids and compound drugs.[11][12]

Research has failed to show a significant difference in outcomes between advice to stay active and recommendations of bed rest.[13] Similarly, physical therapy (exercises) has not been found better than bed rest.[14]

Elective surgery is the main option for unilateral sciatica and focuses on removal of the underlying cause by removing disk herniation and eventually part of the disc. In a controlled study, surgical intervention was found to have better results after one year but after four and ten year follow ups no significant differences were found.[15]

Moderate quality evidence suggests that spinal manipulation is effective for the treatment of acute sciatica, however, only low level evidence was found to support spinal manipulation for the treatment of chronic sciatica.[16] Spinal manipulation has been found safe for the treatment of disc-related pain."
