Piriformis Stretch - Lying
Lie down on your stretching mat on your back, bend one knee and raise the other leg (the side to be stretch) and place the ankle of this leg on the bent knee.
Now loop your hands round the thigh of the bent leg (tip: if you find this hard put a towel behind your bent leg and hold the ends) and keep your head and shoulders on the ground.
Slowly pull the bent leg in towards you so that you feel the stretch in the hip of the leg that is crossed over and the stretch feels a 7/10 and hold for at least 30 seconds.
