Piriformis Stretch

Jul 13, 2022

If you're feeling low back or leg pain, there's a good chance it's in some way connected to your piriformis.

This smaller muscle connected to your sacrum and femur can tighten up very easily in a sedentary lifestyle.

So if you have an office job where you're sitting long ours or spending a lot of time driving, for example, this muscle is probably tight and needs to be stretched.

The figure 4 stretch is great for specifically relieving the piriformis, and feels awesome as well! Give it a try for 30-60s on each leg. I like to start my morning with this stretch to feel loose as I go about my day!

You've probably tried before.  You've worked hard.  But if you're not seeing results, it's not your fault - It might just be the wrong plan for your body and stage in life.
