    Suggestions for website that shows good hip openers? My left IT band, knee, leg... issue is related to my hip/glutes. I have about 5 different stretches, exercises I do but am alway open to different ones.
    Catrin, I feel for you, mine actually presents in my knee, not my hip but will wake me up sometimes when I attempt to roll over.

    you can find stretching and using a foam roller on the IT band helps
