Piriformis Pain: A Yin Yoga Sequence to Alleviate Piriformis Syndrome Symptoms

The piriformis is a little muscular tissue that can be a huge pain.

In our modern-day world, we are extremely at risk to a variety of incongruencies in the body due to weakness as well as inflexibility within particular muscles. This is specifically real of the piriformis because of one extremely essential element: sitting.

It's claimed that "sitting is the brand-new cigarette smoking" and also this may quite possibly be the situation when it involves problems such as piriformis disorder. Piriformis disorder is a problem in which one-- or both-- of the piriformis muscular tissues presses as well as irritates the sciatic nerve, which runs below (or, in some people, through) the piriformis, triggering (literal!) discomfort in the butt and/or tingling or pins and needles. The discomfort or pain might prolong to the reduced back, legs, and also feet.

Situated deep within the butt (below the gluteus maximus), the piriformis muscle is both an exterior potter's wheel of the femur (the upper leg bone) and also a stabilizer of the sacroiliac joint. When the hip is flexed, the piriformis additionally abducts the femur (draws it away from the centerline of the body) as well as even turns around functions to help as an interior rotator also.

Because it is a bilateral muscle mass (mirrored on both sides of the body), if one piriformis muscle is weaker or tighter than the other, this can trigger instability-- and also substantial discomfort-- within as well as around the sacroiliac joint and pelvis in general.

Overstretching or over activating any kind of muscular tissue (especially one that is currently irritated) can cause it to react strongly as well as move deeper into a contracted state developing even extra pain.

Yoga e le posizioni con la spalla sotto al ginocchio!

Man mano che si avanza nella pratica dello yoga, sarà normale imbattersi anche in quelle pose che richiedono di portare la spalla sotto il ginocchio. Un esempio tra tutte la posizione di Utthan Pristhasana, la lucertola, con tutte le sue varianti “volanti” annesse, fino ad arrivare a Dwi Pada Kandharasana.

Ma l’approccio a queste posizioni non è sempre facile e a mio avviso è importante se non fondamentale passare prima per una FASE DI STUDIO in cui - anche se abbiamo una buonissima flessibilità e disponibilità fisica nell’entrare in questo tipo di asana - possiamo esplorare e sperimentare in tutta calma e “comodità” le sensazioni che poi avremo (un pochino più amplificate ovviamente) una volta entrati nella posizione finita. Pertanto nel video che segue ho pensato di mostrarti una sequenza che a me ha aiutato tantissimo per esplorare e sperimentare tutte queste sensazioni, con la calma necessaria e senza mai esagerare e/o richiedere al mio corpo “tutto e subito”! Spero che la troverai utile e piacevole anche te! Se si non dimenticare di lasciare un like al video e/o iscriverti al mio canale se ancora non l’hai fatto! :)
