Nerve flossing for the femoral nerve can effectively release and free the nerve from areas where it may be entrapped. These exercises can provide relief if you're experiencing pain in the front of your thigh which is often caused by femoral nerve compression.
There are also a number of different ways to perform femoral nerve flossing exercises. You can floss the femoral nerve standing up as shown in this video, but you can also do it laying down on your back or stomach or kneeling.
Try doing these exercises in 10 repetitions sets 3x/day to start. It may take a little while to "free up" the nerve, so be patient with it.
If you've been doing femoral nerve flossing and your pain isn't improving or is worsening, you may want to consider seeing a chiropractor, physical therapist, or orthopedic MD for more extensive rehab or other treatments.
Pain is down the back of your leg will likely respond better to sciatica flossing exercises instead of femoral nerve flossing exercises. See the link on the end screen of this video for a demo on how to floss the sciatic nerve.
