Did you know that mobilizing piriformis muscle can help with lower back pain and sciatica? In this video, we dive into piriformis syndrome, a condition where the piriformis muscle irritates the sciatic nerve, causing discomfort and pain. Learn how to mobilize and strengthen this crucial muscle to alleviate symptoms.
Here are three exercises that will stretch and activate your piriformis muscle.
Lie down on your back with your knees bent and both feet flat. Now, place your ankle on the opposite thigh, then gently push your knee away. Hold the stretch for 15 to 20 seconds. Repeat this for a nice stretch.
As the name suggests, try bringing your knee to your opposite shoulder while lying on your back. Feel the stretch, and do it again for a refreshing feeling.
Lie down, bend your knees, lift your hips, and hold for 30 seconds. Feel the burn in your core. Take a break, then do it again for a strong and resilient body.
Try these three simple exercises at home. Remember, it’s important to do them correctly. If you need help or guidance or your back pain is still not improving, do not hesitate to talk to a physical therapist. Get ready to embrace the magic and unleash your potential.
