Another good thing to try is have her do supine hamstring stretch with her hands behind her knee (ie lie supine, grasp behind the knee with your hands, extend the knee) and then flex and extend the ankle (dorsiflex and plantarflex). If the nerve is bound down, this should give her some relief. Do both legs since the nervous system is all connected.
