Thank you BOB Brad You have saved me , I now live mostly pain free.
that piriformis hurts like a beast but those simple moves of yours really offer quick relief. This is natures way of telling me I need to pay attention to these stretches forever. I used to do all kinds of stretching yoga tai chi etc but now that I'm old, and I need to stretch I stopped doing it! Wake up Call!!
I gave myself Chronic Piraformis syndrome and Gluteus amnesia through a repetitive stress injury it was so bad I could not walk without severe pain on standing or walking .Could not step up a kerbstone or climb stairs yet if I could get to the car I could sit and have no pain and my legs worked fine .When on the floor my legs would not obey commands from my brain to move would have to move them physically and haul myself up by my arms . That was early 2020 and spent 6/7 months in a chair one thing that did help I got a Zimmer frame so I could support my weight on my arms and walk .has taken since then to walk again but still have difficulty climbing stairs .What was difficult was retraining my brain to immediately compensate for any imbalance when standing .
I’m a stroke survivor and as with any such person, spasticity got to me real bad. Your videos have been of great help lately. Cannot thank you enough
4:50 Assess Lower Back
5:53 Piriformis Stretches
The information here is priceless. Figure 4 stretches have 1000% cured my piriformis syndrome butt pains. I get it from poor sitting posture ergonomics, and insufficient lumbar support. To a much lesser degree poor sleeping ergonomics can make it worse. Either inflames my piriformis and it constricts down onto the nerve causing butt pain. Stretching the muscle 2x a day (morning and evening) alleviates the inflamation and constriction every time. I also take advil when the pain is really bad. Thanks a million B & B!!!
Thank you for this video, the pain you have explained I’ve been suffering from it on my left side for years and no doctor has been able to find out. Thank you for giving me some stretches to ease my pain and an incling to what I might have now I can go back to the doctor and ask for tests for what you have said.
When I sit up straight for to long my hip and leg hurts, and have to lie down to relieve the pain
Did you follow up with your dr what did they say
Thank you for your explanations, humor, and so many good exercises to help manage pain!
What a brilliant pair. Thank you guys.
Thank you for sharing your gifts so generously.
You are great guys and t is wonderful to have exercises to help too. Unfortunately my back is bad and my hip is bad too. However, with some of these exercises, I am beginning to be able to do things I haven't been able to for quite a while.
I am so grateful for the knowledge that you guys have gave me about this pain in my left hip that started a few weeks ago. Thanks for your video.
Is it gone now?
You guys are great! My physical therapist wasn't sure what my problem was.... said I was an enigma (??!!) Yikes. Thanks so much for all your insights that you share with us! I can't believe I found the most famous PT's on the planet - wow, what luck. Pls. send roses....I don't have a valentine:(
Thank god for these guys. Piriformis pain sucks when you want to squat and leg press 😕.
or deadlift :( 0 hamstring leverage and they're always so tight!
Great advice as always guys, I use your methods all the time. Thank you 🙏🏿
that 4 shape stretch is helping me… 7 months after my 3rd baby and im only 25 but i’ve been having just insane lower back and hip pain… watched the video how to tell muscle vs joint vs nerve pain, found it’s probably joint and muscle. this baby was huge and came out posterior with epidural she just would not turn… messed me up bad in the long term but ill be healing now with these stretches
The Best Free Physical Therapist on Internet 😂😂👍🏾
I run while on the table when my therapist use that gun... It hurts so bad.. 😑
I love how Bob always corrects Brad when he says ‘lay down’ 😅😅😅 My mum always corrected our grammar and now I’m so sensitive to every mistake!!
I was told I had nods and I have pain in my hip area. I was told to rest and drink plenty of water. Will this help me?
Have a scheduled MRI friday and wondered if you can give good advice about the procedure that addresses stabilizing L3 vertebra with injection of concrete? Ir reccomend?
My right hip feels much better after doing 2 of your stretches!🎉🎈✨🎇 Thank you soo much!😉
for how long were you performing them till they felt better?
Same here! I had used the massage gun previously but the stretch was a huge impact.
Excellent information!!
I suffer from chronic glute tightness, from work related, intense lifting. As a result, my lower back sometimes fails with tightening of the back muscles. Using your instructions I’ve narrowed it down to the piriformis. I’m curious, what is the purpose of the piriformis?
Many thanks to B & B! The three exercises for the periformis pain I'm having is working very well!
Are you feeling more relief from months ago?
@@wmpetroff2307 do these exercises work also with hip dysplasia??
@@godismyall42me Ms Mary I do not know about the hip d. I can say at times my hip complained. Presently I am walking around much easier and longer ( time span on my feet 30 minutes) . Have you looke up HipD exercises?
great fan of your informatie video, i have been suffering form this hip pain almost 2 years, and just got to know what it is,,,i get this pain when i am driving over 30 min, and also have lower back pain might be related to piriformis ,,,but lets see how these drills go,,,,,
I get it from sitting and from massage I'm finding out. My massage gun makes it worse too. Basically any kind of direct pressure. Working on clamshells and squats and trying to grow my butt to help cushion it.
Muscles contract when they are irritated so deep massage can make it worse. Try hot packs and gentle stretching
Thanks guys, looks like it's piriformis for me, been taking lots of Tylenol and very sore for the last few days. I tried your diagnostics and will keep up with the exercises, much better than wrecking my liver with acetaminophen every day. Much respect for physiotherapists, they have helped me before I found you fellows, what the doctor thought was a collapsed disk turned out to be a torn groin tendon. Again, many thanks!
I love these. I also need some help with stretching the muscles in my lower leg. Mainly the front. Recovering from an auto accident.
How can I increase range of motion? I can’t get my foot up on my knee in the figure 4. Appreciate a video on increasing ROM. Thank you for your great videos.
Can you afford to go to a chiropractor to be checked. I could not do the figure 4 while standing. So, I'm standing in the shower trying to lift my left foot up into my right knee so I can wash my foot. Could not lift it even halfway. I have piriformes problem in the left hip. Physical therapy didn't help. Chiropractor pushed down on the left pubic bone (the pubic bone is not connected in the front) to move it back into alignment. She said it was a fairly common problem. I can now lift my leg onto my knee when sitting or lying down. A weak piriformes in that leg keeps me from lifting my leg all the way when standing but I can almost do it..
Can you do these exercises with a total knee replacement?
Dang, youd think Id learn my lesson. Hundreds of $'s spent going to multiple chiropractors....could have just come to your you tube channel just as I did when I had my shoulder pain. You 2 are invatuable!!!! Thank you!!! You are so kind to share this info on how we can heal ourselves with stretches!!! 👏🥰
THIS!!!!!
THANK YOU!!!!!
Thank you immensely.
You are great nice gentlemen, many people have this kind of problems ,thank you and have a great day.❤
this is super helpful to me. and the ending
I really appreciate your explanations of what is going on. You guys are great.
This helped me a lot, I was looking for the exercises. I can only sleep well with my left leg pulled up while laying on my stomach.😢
Such great exercises and good stretch for my back thank you so very much
Can ya fix me broken English.? ;)
Love you two. It's weird how you chaps always release a video which is spot on to issues I have.
Thanks!
Thank you for your support!
Love your videos, they always help me
Thank you B&B
Came across this today Thank-you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was just refreshing on exercises I was doing at physio therapy. Thanks. My situation is a little more complicated, but those are the exercises prescribed. The extensions in the beginning are what I do when my back goes out. I am not suppose to do it for my herniated disc. I will be watching more of your videos. Those muscles tighten up only when I walk or stand for any length of time.
I feel the same any improve
Could you talk about arm pain. While repairing a hole on my ceiling months ago, I hurt what seems like is my elbow or around it. I could not let my arm hung normally for some weeks. When I walk if I let my arm hung, it really feels painful, so I have to put my arm inside a pocket while walking. Could you please explain what could be the reason? Thanks for explaining about the Piriformis, how often and how many times, should I do the exercise? Thanks.
Hello from Greece. I 'm 44 years old been suffering from Chronic Piriformis & Hip Pain. I swim 30' free style no intense 5 times per week. I d like to ask you 3 questions:
1st: Can I do these exersices everyday ? If yes, how many times every day ?
2nd: Do you recommend me to swim more everyday, for example 1 hour, or not ?
3nd: Do you suggest me to do Pilates Reformer 3 times every week at the same time, or not ?
Thank you
Hi Guys! Do you recommend a certain chair pad for an office chair?
Your shoulder diagnoses and exercises are also excellent, I picked up a lot of damage in 73 years it seems.
I got an adjustment my lower back pointer joints at base of spine was off . From when i bent over to tie my shoes. But its because im also dealing with a knee issue . The chiropractor just adjusted my back but didn't use a massager or anything on my hip / buttock near piriformis. I got knots in this area was worse but i been stretching and massaging om my own
I keep coming back every day to watch their videos, always hopeful that this is time they're going to reveal how to fix a broken heart.
Aw! Hope yours isn’t broken. Try thinking about what you’re grateful for. Being alive is one gift. As you grow stronger in being able to do that the broken heart starts to feel better.
Hahaha!!!
Sending u all the luv and healing vibes😇
🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍
Awww. It's not really broken. Enjoy a hug right now from the sun, it's warmth and it's golden light. Always there.
Thank you for a good lesson
So nice of you!
Bob
You guys are the greatest 💖
I love this dou, very informative and entertaining to watch 😊🇵🇭
5:00 and add clam shell strength ingredients exercises
So timely! I’m suffering from this right now.
Here's question for anyone some experience. What do you do if you have had hip surgery on the side that you have the pain? You are not supposed to move that hip joint past 90 degrees I thought. I can't get anywhere near that but have either sciatica or piriformis problem or maybe SI joint issue and have had it for years. Very tight hip and hamstrings for years. Also I believe all the muscles in that leg are not as strong as my other leg due to years of favoring it. Thanks. Best of luck to all
Which massage gun do you recommend ? You guys are awesome
Not so much a comment but question. Mine is my back to my hip down the front of my leg to my groan where it burns and tingles
What we want to know is what exercises, etc. we can do to support the hip joints so we do not have to have surgery!
Got their top massage gun. Great!!!
Q. Seem to have sciatica type pain when I stand too long - is that Piriform?
Thanks you❤
LOVE your way!
I ve had this for many yrs
My TENS has been my salvation to calm pain so I can stretch. Driving is a trigger.
I ordered one of those thumper massagers, too.
When I stand and hyperextend I feel the pain in the right side. I don't feel it down the leg.
What about having chronic Piriformis after hip replacement? My surgical side is having this issue but the opposite side is fine...
I have been doing the hip exercises you two have demonstrated and I am feeling much better. Thanks!
What’s the next step of you’ve done all of that and the pain h h as only gotten worse?
Different neurosurgeons all tell me something different. Some say my herniated thoracic discs are the culprit. Another thinks it is from the lumbar disc bulge at L5/S1. One suggested none of the disc herniations or bulges are an issue and that it's likely piriformis syndrome but directed me to youtube to look for videos on it.
One was brutally honest and said no one will help me because I'm uninsured. He thinks it is the thoracic herniations but he doesn't do that kind of operation.
I've been in pain for over a decade. It's getting worse. I've already lost everything including my home, chasing relief or dare I hope a cure. I had an SI fusion back when I was insured and it only made the sciatic pain worse. It's a shame it's so hard to find an honest medical opinion and once one is driven to poverty by their health, they are tossed out with tue trash.
Medicaid?
@@maplenook no. Medicaid in many states will not kick in for those over 18 and under 65 unless already on SSDI or SSI.
I applied for disability many years ago after 2 years of running into this brick wall. I'm still fighting. Yes, I have an atty (I've had several over the years but each only takes the case so far).
How often and how long should I stretch/massage?
These dudes are the Car Talk, Click-and-Clack, Tappet Brothers of physical therapy.
They're helpful and for some reason funny.😺
Thank you B and B!! Very nice and helpful videos!.
quick question
I had a disc herniation at L4/ L5 years ago
I'm 65 now! Always been excersiseing but with covid I'm doing at home videos and I'm doing moderate
I noticed mild foot drop like difficulty doing a dorsiflexion on the injured side! Actually it was always there no matter what I do but lately I'm getting concerned
MRI shows no new findings!!
Any recommendations and what might I be missing here?
Am I overexcersising or is it the opposite way round??
Great great video 👍
what if my piriformis is torn? should I stretch it?
Question - doing the extension test, it doesn't trigger the nerve symptoms down the leg, but I feel a lot of discomfort in my hip flexor, in the front, high up, almost in the groin.
hi there so tell me i had pain on both sides of my hips. but the left side got getter by its self but the right side is getting worse.i cant hit a golf ball anymore, how did the left side get better and not the right side
How to stretch the muscle that connects hip to lumbar region
thanks bob and brad ! love your videos
OMG thank you!
Question for the Doctors. Have you had a patient with painful nerve shock that shoots through the groan on a male? I have that pain which is extremely painful in the groan and don't know what to do to fix this problem??? At night while sleeping is the worst!!! Please help!!!!
I was told years ago that I had radiculitis . Is that the same issue?
Are Brads back strengthening ball/wall exercises okay for osteoporosis?
What about shockwave therapy for the hip and butt pain?
Ill try it my hip hurts I dont know how either from lifting or laying wrong it hurts like hell. Ill tell u how I feel after
Fantastic
Bob and Brad, I have suffered with piriformis syndrome since a fall I had when I was in high school. Most of my life, it wasn't diagnosed properly by the health profession; some even suggested that it "was in my head." A physical therapist actually diagnosed it. Anyway, I have a few questions/comments concerning your discussion over whether the pain is caused by low-back or by the piriformis itself. I know it is my piriformis because when you press on that spot on my butt, I see stars! I've been doing stretching exercises for a number of years, but the relief is only temporary. I cannot sit in a car for longer than about 20 minutes, especially if I am driving and unable to switch sitting positions. My greatest relief comes from walking. I'm at the point where I am very depressed because I feel that I will never be without pain. Any suggestions? Or words of encouragement? Thank you.
Have you tried ‘awareness through movement’? Might be helpful if you haven’t tried it 🤷🏼♀️ I wish you all the best
Try the Alpha-Stim
I have piriformis syndrome but when it's really inflamed and flaring up my back also hurts and spasms
Brad, Brad, Brad!!!! 4:50 "it's VERY VERY certain that it's PROBABLY..." Wait, it's "very certain", or "it's probably"???
What can ya do 🤷🏼♂️
Question. I have pain in my right gluts. Then pain in the RIGHT THIGH ONLY when I raise it onto a chair/stool or try to put my shoe on my right foot. saw a video where it was said if the pain in the thigh is in FRONT THIGH and not in the back thigh, it’s not sciatica. What’s your take?
Massage gun unavailable on Amazon. When will there be stock again.
I got the purewave, look on Facebook
Theragun is great at Nordstrom
Are heating pads effective for piriformis ?
What about squats for tight peraformis
Is there a set of hip exercises for hip pain that has started once you are over 2 total knee replacements. Thank you
You probably need glute exercises now
Great videos guys, I see you mention massage guns, I have been considering getting one for a while but undecided which one to get as prices range a lot. What ones would you recommend?
When I lie on my stomach, it is so painful before doing the exercise is it because of piriformis or back?
I also can not stand and do the first exercise because of pain my leg.
I have tried stretching I don't work What can Add do to relieve the swelling and the pain in the right leg and The right butt cheek
