After my doctor diagnosed me with piriformis syndrome, he also gave me the liberty to go on YouTube for some exercises for it. I found you and did as you recommended. In just 15 days of doing it daily, I had my first painless day since March. I can now walk leisurely again without pain in every step. I am so happy and grateful to you, Jessica. You are a blessing. The Lord bless you for helping us be relieved from the excruciating pain.

Ok...not gonna lie, I cursed so many times doing these stretches. Today is day 4 and can definitely see improvement and will continue these daily. Thank you for the information and explanation of this.

This is an amazing remedy. I feel hope for the first time since I was diagnosed in 2015!!! Everyone else told me to strengthen and SQUEEZE. It got worse and worse until I was blessed to find this program. Thank you!

I cried everytime i found your videos, either about piriformis or scoliosis, because I find them so helpful. Especially your words about these problems. Thanks to you I learned not to overdo it and do it slowly and lovingly <3

[sherylbeamer]

Thank you! I’ve been suffering w this issue for over a year and am committing to doing your routine for the next 30 days.

Just injured my butt muscle. Didn’t think it was the piriformis because I didn’t have leg pain. 3 painful and mostly bedrest weeks, I realized the cramp on my lower side leg was related. Didn’t realize it could be a cramp feeling.
My sister had the same injury and showed me. some identical stretches that you are also doing.

She injured her muscle almost exactly the way I did. Three months before she could go back to step classes.
I just want it to get better - I am very patient. I am a swimmer, so pools are just opening post Pandemic.

She was 67 when she injured her piriformis muscle with very bad sciatica.
I have just turned 68. So I am hoping that working with you will help greatly.
So if you are older, don’t panic. If my sister could recover, so can you ( and I )

[rhondacole]

I was so glad to see you have a work out for the periformis . Thank you so much Jessica

[lisacoupland]

Thanks for always having a workout for whatever bit of me is needing TLC, this was exactly what I needed... now for a neck/shoulder one!

[TeaLaRee]

My physical therapist did these and helped tremendously. I'm glad to find your channel and sub to do these along with you. You're a big help.

[ccee]

Thanks for the explanation and real-time stretches!

[mariettamalan]

My first day. I like your gentle, no hype approach. I'll stay with you on this 30 day consistency.

[lesleysimmons]

Thanks so much Jessica! You have no idea how fantastic your advice & videos have been! Its lovely to not be in so much pain since trying out your various pilates videos, especially this one! Having piriformis syndrome has been pretty miserable for me & now I can enjoy walking for miles without being in agony!🙂

Thank you! I have seen so many videos about piriformis syndrome (self diagnosed) but I figured out that it isn't quite the same as sciatica caused from pinching in the back. I only ever had pain in my butt cheek. My chiropractor showed me a few stretches and how to roll it out after being aligned. This video is much more comprehensive and flows in a way that is comfortable enough to do in bed/before bed and awakening enough to do in the morning. You're awesome. I'll keep at it. Thanks again!

Hi Jessica, 9 doctors later of EXTREME pain for 9 months where I couldn't sit or just laying down the pain was so severe. I finally found a doctor of Osteopathic Medicine that diagnosed me with Piriformis Syndrome and prescribed a few exercises that helped a bit. I then started searching the internet now that I had a diagnosis and found your video. You are simply the best. Your routine is simple but so effective and just love the way you explain everything as far as being patient and trusting the process and no single exercise is going to fix it. After just a few weeks I am 100 percent pain free now. Thank You so much for making this video. I am so grateful...

[cemilehampton]

Thank you so much for this, the piriformis stretches really help and I love the fact that you do the stretches with us rather then doing just 1 of them as I enjoy doing the excercise together otherwise I will not do them because I forget how to. I also like the back and side stretch at the end as I do feel tension in my back when doing the lying down pull leg in stretch. Thanks again your great!

[nicolacrosby]

Thank you for this. I am in excruciating pain right now and I'm praying this video will help. I'm on day 2 of this video and trying to trust your process🙏🏽

[amazonhealer]
