Stretch I do every night
This stretch is wonderful anytime or for relief for sciatic pain from Piriformis syndrome.
Stretch after every workout when your muscles are warm and every night before bed.
I receive many emails asking me for tips on stretching. Stretching is just as important as lifting weights and eating healthfully. I stretch every night before bed (with candles and relaxing music 🙂 It helps me sleep better and stay flexible.
How to do it:
-
Lie flat on your back
-
Cross your left ankle over your right knee, hip open
-
Grasp behind your right upper leg, breathe out and gently pull
-
Exhale as you pull, don't bounce
-
You can have your shoulders flat on the floor or slightly up off the floor
-
Repeat other leg
-
Do each leg 3x

Hi there,
I was searching for some articles about piriformis syndrome when I came across your page.
Just wanted to give you a heads up that I created something that would be a great addition to your post resources. It’s an article that describes in detail what causes the piriformis syndrome and how you can treat it yourself with 3 exercises.
Let me know if this is something you be interested in and I’ll send it your way to check it out .
Either way, keep up the good work!
Cheers,
Martin
