there are some really amazing yoga stretches for IT bands, however, I would NOT recommend doing them without an instructor present, if done incorrectly, you can seriously injure them more.
FInd a reputable studio by you, talk to the instructor a few minutes before class, and ask for some IT band poses, and let her/him definitely know of your issues.....
edited to add: Some people have tight IT bands, some have tight hamstrings, some have tight shoulders. It's just part of certain people's anatomies. I've always had to work super hard on opening up my shoulders, even before I got t-boned by a drunk driver, which they are now even tighter!
