How To Keep Piriformis In Control Apart From Physical Therapy?

I have fibromyalgia. I got hurt with Piriformis last June. Had to stop my exercise routine for about 4 months until I healed. In the process I gained 30lbs. I was on a roll with my weight loss at the time and had lost gone down from 200lbs to 189 at the time. Now I m ready to get into my routine. Going to physical therapy to make sure Piriformis doesn t act up again. Any else beside mental discipline can help me or you can suggest. I am having such a hard time getting back on track?
