Lie on your back on the exercise mat, with your legs flat. From the starting position, pull the affected leg up toward your chest with both hands. If your right leg is affected, hold the right knee with your right hand and grasp the ankle with your left hand. Pull the ankle, and push your knee towards the opposite ankle. Pull only until a slight stretch is felt. Make sure not to force your ankle or knee beyond the stretch.

Tips:
Before starting any type of stretches and exercises, always consult your spine specialist.
You will benefit from stretching exercises for the piriformis muscle if you perform them a few times a day.
Combine stretching exercises for the piriformis muscle with hamstring stretches.
Stretching exercises for the piriformis muscle and hamstring stretches will prevent a tightening of the lower back and relieve tension from hip to foot.
Always perform the stretch to the point you do not feel pain. Make sure not to force your body beyond the stretch.

Number of repetitions:
Hold the stretch for 30 seconds, then slowly return to the starting position, taking 30 seconds.
Repeat this stretching exercise 2 to 3 times, 2 to 3 times daily.

Tips:
Before starting any type of stretches and exercises, always consult your spine specialist.

With this type of sciatic pain, you will feel some relief when sitting down bent forward — in comparison to standing up straight.

When treating sciatica from spinal stenosis, spine specialists often recommend flexion exercises or forward-bending exercises.
Forward-bending exercises flex the lower spine and increase the size of passageways, causing the pain and irritation to lessen.
Exercises that relieve sciatica pain caused by stenosis include a combination of stretching and strengthening exercises.
Backward-bending exercises stretch the muscles that hold the spine straight.
Another type of exercises focuses on forward bending. These exercises strengthen the muscles that bring the spine into a forward-bending position.

Number of repetitions:
Hold in child position for 10 seconds. Slowly return to the starting position, taking around 30 seconds. Repeat 6 times.
Gradually work toward holding the child position for 30 seconds. Slowly return to the starting position, again taking 30 seconds. Repeat 6 times.
