Is A Rebounder Safe To Use Post A Periformis Problem?
I bought a small rebounder and almost instantly suffered sciatic pain such as I never had before - my whole right cheek (buttocks) is in pain. I had been diagnosed as having a periformis problem but this pain seemed to involve more than just the one small area of pain which always resolved after light yoga. Should I return my rebounder

Hi,
Cannot say in your particular case, but generally, YES. The site of pain is direclty where the rebounder hits. the symptoms are directly what the pyriformis syndrome would do and the pyriformis is going to be whacked on by this sort of exercise.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
