Exercises for Piriformis Syndrome

STRETCHES & EXERCISES FOR Piriformis Syndrome
Piriformis Syndrome is a painful, chronic condition that can last months or even years. Stretching your piriformis muscles helps temporarily, but the pain just keeps coming back. Sounds familiar?
A tennis ball or foam roller are good to alleviate the symptom, but not to treat the real cause of Piriformis Syndrome, which is often related to the misalignment of the hips and pelvis.
Since the piriformis muscle is attached to the sacrum and hip bones, an asymmetry (such as having a twisted or rotated pelvis, lateral tilt of the pelvis, or an anterior rotation of one hip) can cause the piriformis muscle to spasm.
Figure out what irritates your Piriformis and address the root of the problem.
