The Piriformis can be a real Pain in the Butt.

Get rid of Scitiac Pain with these 7 Mobility Exercises.

Incl. Myo Fascial Relase Applications.Image
Image
General Information

The main function of the piriformis muscle is to rotate the hip outward when the leg is straight or in a neutral stance.

When the hip is bent, such as when pulling the knee up towards the chest, the muscle helps in moving the leg to the side and keeps the hip joint steady.

If it gets tight you feel pain in the deeper area of your buttocks. Which can also lead to sciatic pain and other symptoms.

Doing a good session of Myo Fascial Release (MFR) will help you lower the tension on the muscle and around it.
