This is the sciatic nerve flossing exercise that is used to mobilize the sciatic nerve to help reduce inflammation and peripheral nerve impingement. Generally this exercise is to be done in a pain free range of motion, if the end ranges are intolerable you can modify the exercise by shortening the range.
