In this video a physiotherapist demonstrates gentle exercises for piriformis syndrome, a form of sciatica. The aim of these exercises is to stretch and mobilise the piriformis muscle in the buttocks and therefore to reduce the symptoms of sciatica. This video is part of a series on exercises for sciatica.
