Piriformis Stretch

Sitting comfortably on the floor, use your hands to bring one knee halfway towards your chest. Now bring this knee towards the other side of your body. Gently pull your knee towards your chest until you feel a stretch around the centre of your buttock area. Hold for 5 seconds and then slowly relax this stretch while still holding on to your knee. Repeat this step slowly 5 times.

Now repeat this on the other leg.

Tip:
A most valuable exercise for sciatic type pain.*
Caution:
Do not continue if you experience groin pain

Repeat this sequence 5 times.
Perform 2 times per day.
Perform 5 days per week.

*NOTE: It is normal to experience slight discomfort while performing stretches or certain exercises. However, if any exercise or stretch causes pain or more than just slight discomfort, please discontinue the exercise or stretch.
