Default Piriformis Syndrome

What turned it around for me was a very competent chiropractor.
I hope you have an opportunity to have a consultation with a chiropractor who is repudable and knowledgable. S/he may be able to rule out other possibilities and/or contributing factors as well. The condition can be reversed with proper care.
Good luck to you!

You wrote that you found a chiropractor that helped you with your piriformis syndrome. Could you be more specific? Thank you. Paulette
