This case study aims to find the benefits of physiotherapy intervention in the form of manual therapy such as stretching of the postural muscles, myofascial release, dynamic muscle adaptation, contract relax of the piriformis muscle, hip traction, and physiological movements in the lumbar region and the piriformis muscle. The research method used is a case study. The respondent used was a 48 year old patient who was a housewife who had retired from office work. This research was conducted 8 times for one month. Patients were evaluated using a visual analog scale (VAS). The results of using intervention in the form of manual therapy show a reduction in pain in low back pain at causa piriformis syndrome from a pressure pain scale of 8 to 3, movement pain from 8 to 2 and silent pain from 2 to 1.
