Piriformis Pigeon Stretch – Ask Doctor Jo
The piriformis pigeon stretch is great for helping to stretch out a tight or painful piriformis muscle. Watch more Ask Doctor Jo videos featuring full routines for common injuries and syndromes at http://www.askdoctorjo.com
1. Get down on the ground in a quadruped position. Take one leg back and bring up the leg you want to stretch, bending your knee up and across the body.
2. Relax your body down towards the ground, like you are sitting, until you feel a stretch in your buttocks area. Hold the stretch.
