- Lie on the floor with the legs flat. Raise the affected leg and place that foot on the floor outside the opposite knee. Pull the knee of the bent leg directly across the midline of the body using the opposite hand or a towel, if needed until stretch is felt. Do not force knee beyond stretch or to the floor. Hold stretch for 5 seconds, then slowly return to starting position. Aim to complete a set of three stretches, but don't over do the stretch.

Stretching the piriformis muscle is almost always necessary to relieve the pain along the sciatic nerve and can be done in several different positions. A number of stretching exercises for the piriformis muscle, hamstring muscles and hip extensor muscles may be used to help decrease the painful symptoms along the sciatic nerve and return the patients range of motion.
Practical tip: Stretching the piriformis muscle a few times a day, especially when combined with hamstring stretches, will prevent tightening of the lower back and relieve tension from hip to foot.
We don't prescribe stretching at HOPE Wellness Institute, and clients should consult their doctor before starting a stretching or exercise program.
