Piriformis syndrome is buttock pain, sometimes with pain down the back of the leg, that can come from a tight piriformis muscle pressing on or irritating the sciatic nerve, and piriformis massage can ease tight glute muscles, though pain that feels like sciatica needs a doctor’s view first. Buttock pain is the one complaint nobody wants to describe at a dinner party and nearly everyone has had at some point.<\/span><\/p>\n

The piriformis hides behind your glutes like a shy coworker, and a local therapist can bring<\/span> deep tissue massage<\/span><\/a> to your home, so you don’t have to sit in a car to get help.<\/span><\/p>\n
