This week on the Unreal Results podcast, we're throwing it back to episode 6, The Mysterious, Misunderstood, and Mistreated SI joint.  Part of the reason we're revisiting this episode is because my free course, The Missing Link, is starting again soon and it's all focused around the SI joint.  So in this episode, you'll learn why the SI joint is where I start all of my assessments and why it's the first test in the LTAP™.  You'll also learn how visceral organs, the nervous system, and deep fascia profoundly influence SI joint mobility, impacting pain patterns and overall function.  Make sure to give this episode a listen to challenge your conventional thinking and learn why the SI joint might be the 'missing link' to transforming your practice and client outcomes.Resources Mentioned In This EpisodeFREE COURSE: The Missing LinkEpisode 6: The Mysterious, Misunderstood, Mistreated SI JointEpisode 54: A Better Way To Assess The SI JointEpisode 77: The Controversy of the Gillet SI Joint TestYouTube Video: Understanding SI Joint MobilityLearn the LTAP™ In-Person in one of my upcoming courses

In this episode, expert medical practitioners Kim Pittis and Dr. Carol discusses the frequency specific microcurrent (FSM) therapy, sharing a year in review and numerous patient case studies.  They delve into conditions such as frozen shoulder, low back pain, sacroiliac joint issues, endometriosis, corticobasal syndrome, and vestibular injuries, providing detailed insights into diagnosis, treatment techniques, and patient outcomes.  Additionally, they highlight the importance of medical imaging, patient history, and the use of adjunct treatments like magnesium supplementation. The episode also touches on the practical applications of FSM in clinical settings and patient education resources. 00:00 Introduction and New Year Greetings 00:20 Reflecting on the Past Year 00:45 Challenges in Treating Shoulder Conditions 01:38 Case Study: Nerve Pain and MRI Findings 04:03 Low Back Pain: Common Complaints and Protocols 06:28 SI Joint Issues and Treatment Approaches 12:14 Vestibular Injuries: Diagnosis and Patient Experiences 25:00 Endometriosis: Advanced Treatment Techniques 33:16 Understanding Vestibular Injuries 35:54 Vision Therapy vs Prism Glasses 41:30 The Role of the Omentum 43:55 Exploring Corticobasal Disease 47:43 Magnesium and Low Back Pain 56:56 Awards and Community 59:15 Conclusion and Sign-Off Understanding Low Back Pain: Low back pain remains a top complaint across various age groups, from athletes to octogenarians. It's crucial to differentiate the underlying causes, particularly when it comes to disc-related pain, which often manifests as leg pain rather than low back discomfort. The low back pain protocol, focusing predominantly on facets alongside addressing wear and tear in the annulus, serves as a comprehensive approach to this widespread issue. This protocol is especially beneficial when imaging isn't available or conclusive, laying a foundation for symptom management.   SI Joint Dysfunction - Unpacking the Complexity: A fascinating exploration into sacroiliac (SI) joint dysfunction reveals its intricate nature. Whether caused by torque from improper adjustments, as when a drop table is improperly utilized, or exacerbated by tension from pregnancy, SI joint issues demand meticulous attention. Taping and targeted FSM treatment on the joint capsule and ligaments can significantly reduce nerve pain radiating to the legs. The role of the psoas muscle, especially following a C-section, further complicates SI joint recovery due to potential scarring and pelvic misalignment. The Role of Compression Garments: There's ongoing discussion about utilizing compression shorts or sacroiliac belts to stabilize these joints. While sacroiliac belts can occasionally misalign the joint, compression shorts might offer a lateral stabilization that merits exploration. These garments can be crucial in transitioning from taping to fostering natural joint stability.   Navigating Vestibular Injuries: Vestibular injuries, often overlooked, are prevalent among patients with chronic fatigue and other systemic symptoms. They frequently arise from seemingly minor incidents like car accidents or abrupt motion, causing disruptions in the vestibular system. Identifying these injuries often involves evaluating the patient's history and using tools like the BIVSS. Prism glasses can be an effective interim solution, stabilizing one's visual field before more intensive therapies are introduced.   Insight into Endometriosis Treatment: Treating endometriosis extends beyond addressing the reproductive organs. The diffuse nature of endometrial scarring necessitates an FSM protocol that tackles inflammatory and scar tissues, including underlying adhesions in the vagus, intestines, and even the omentum. The approach often involves dissolving the blood clots and scar tissue while managing bleeding, underlining the need for a comprehensive strategy. Low Back Pain and Bowel Function: An intriguing observation links magnesium citrate laxatives and back pain relief. Given its role as a laxative, magnesium citrate may alleviate discomfort by reducing constipation-related pressure, emphasizing the interconnectedness of bowel health and musculoskeletal well-being.   Advancing FSM Treatment Protocols: As we continue to advance our understanding and treatment protocols, the importance of recognizing the complex interplay between different bodily systems becomes evident. Integrating new insights into these conditions propels FSM's capacity to offer relief, fostering a holistic approach to patient care. Through ongoing discourse and clinical exploration, we are better equipped to address these intricate cases, supporting our patients on their path to recovery.

Today's episode covers sacroiliac or SI joint pain, which is a type of low back pain. The sacroiliac joints are two small synovial joints located on the right and left sides of the low back between the sacrum and the ilium bone of the pelvis. These joints are surrounded by numerous ligaments, which makes them very strong and capable of supporting body weight. Because of their joint shape and the surrounding ligaments, the sacroiliac joints move very little, but are thought to account for a small percentage of back pain cases. Pain associated with sacroiliac joint irritation is usually located on one side of the low back and may radiate into the buttock or back side of the thigh. If you believe you may experiencing pain originating from one or both of your sacroiliac joints, the exercises shown in the video may help.  https://youtu.be/s2bqEP1O6_s?si=MSDpabHhBI58Jae9 Reference: Laslett M.

This week on the Unreal Results podcast, I talk about one of my favorite topics - the Gillet SI joint test.  Gillet's test or sometimes known as the March test or Stork test, is typically known for having poor reliability based on previous research.  If you've been following along for some time, you probably know that said research likes to get thrown around by the EBP police when I make posts on social media.  But the often overlooked part of these research studies is that they have lots of flaws and limitations.  Make sure you tune into this episode as I break down why the studies on the Gillet test aren't the best and why I think the SI joint is innately difficult to assess with only one test.Resources Mentioned In This EpisodeEpisode 6: The Mysterious, Misunderstood, and Mistreated SI JointEpisode 10: EBP PoliceEpisode 54: A Better Way To Assess The SI JointGet on the Online LTAP™ Level 1 Waitlist HEREResearch Studies Mentioned- Intertester Reliability for Selected Clinical Tests of the Sacroiliac Joint- Inter- and Intra-Examiner Reliability of Palpation for Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction- Inter-Examiner and Intra-Examiner Agreement for Assessing Sacroiliac Anatomical Landmarks Using Palpation and Observation: Pilot Study- Inter-Examiner and Intra-Examiner Reliability of the Standing Flexion Test- Reliability of Motion Palpation Procedures to Detect Sacroiliac Joint Fixations- Intraexaminer and Interexaminer Reliability of the Gillet TestUpcoming In-Person LTAP™ CoursesLTAP Level 1 in Boston, October 2024Considering the viscera as a source of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction is a great way to ensure a more true whole body approach to care, however it can be a bit overwhelming on where to start, which is exactly why I created the Visceral Referral Cheat Sheet.

This post provides a detailed walk-through of a real-life patient case, revealing the intricacies of how these conditions can interrelate and the diagnostic tools and treatments available for managing them effectively.   #### The Complex Case Study: Patient's Initial Condition Our journey begins with a patient suffering from an extensive list of symptoms—repeated expressions of discomfort and frustration, phrases like "Oh my God, this is insane," and "That's ridiculous." The patient also mentioned various treatments being attempted without success, highlighting persistent pain and limitations in daily functions.   #### Mapping Out the Problem A crucial first step in understanding this patient's case was a thorough examination. This started with highlighting specific symptoms: - Persistent pain described as "hilarious but ridiculous." - A complex history involving multiple treatments like injection pillow, skin taping, and various exercises. - Diagnoses from physical exams and past procedures indicating possible ligament tears and synovial joint issues. - Persistent muscular pain points, particularly in the glute minimus and other muscles compensating for dysfunction in the SI joint.   #### Diagnostic Techniques: Leaving No Stone Unturned The diagnostic process was multifaceted, involving numerous techniques to get a full picture of the patient's condition: 1. **Physical Examination**: An in-depth examination of the SI joint, assessing symptoms like tenderness, muscle spasms, and joint stability. 2. **Tuning Fork Test**: Used to determine semi-circular canal dehiscence, a potential contributor to vestibular dysfunction. 3. **Gait Analysis**: Observing patient's movement, balance, and coordination to identify any abnormalities or compensatory mechanisms in ambulation. 4. **Visual Tests**: Including eye-tracking and head movement coordination, to understand the extent of vestibular injury.   #### Treatment Modalities Applied Once diagnostics provided a clearer scope of the problem, tailored treatments began: - **FSM (Frequency Specific Microcurrent)**: This included treating torn ligaments and connective tissue. FSM is utilized for its ability to reduce inflammation and accelerate healing in specific areas. - **Injections**: Steroid and prolotherapy injections were used accurately within the joint to diagnose and address specific pain sources effectively. - **Skin Taping**: Applied precisely to stabilize the SI joint by reducing excessive movement, thus lowering pain and improving functional stability. - **Physical Treatments**: Manual work, including the use of pressure on specific points to reduce muscle tension and improve alignment.   #### Intricacies of Manual Therapy Manual therapy for this patient involved: - Applying pressure to areas of adhesion between the psoas and bladder. - Addressing tightness in the quadratus lumborum and associated musculature to improve movement. - Focusing on softening the muscles overlying facet joints to relieve associated nerve pain. - Careful manipulation of the suboccipital muscles to alleviate tension extending from cervical misalignment impacting vestibular functions.   #### Importance of Patient Communication and Sensitivity Throughout the diagnostic and treatment process, patient comfort and communication were prioritized. Consistently asking the patient about her pain levels, clarifying each step of the process, and ensuring a thorough explanation enabled a more targeted and effective treatment regimen.   #### Results and Reflections After implementing these comprehensive treatment strategies, there was a notable improvement: - The patient reported a sensation of clarity, reduced muscular tension, and enhanced range of motion. - Objective measures, such as increased neck flexion, extension, and rotation, validated these subjective reports. - The plan included follow-up treatments to ensure sustained improvement and address any remaining issues.   #### Conclusion This detailed case study underscores the complexity and interrelation of SI joint injuries and vestibular dysfunction. Treating such multifaceted conditions requires a deep understanding of anatomy, innovative diagnostic techniques, and a blend of manual therapies and technological interventions. Understanding the interplay between various bodily systems and having a meticulous approach to diagnostic and therapeutic processes can significantly enhance patient outcomes. If you or someone you know is suffering from similar symptoms, consider a multi-targeted approach to uncover and address the underlying issues comprehensively. Stay tuned for more in-depth case studies and insights into complex medical conditions and innovative treatment options.

The sacroiliac joint is a very strong joint that takes the load of the torso from the vertebral column and sends it to the pelvis and lower limbs. It is a synovial joint that allows a little movement and is strongly supported by ligaments. Pain here is often caused by the joint being pulled too far by the large muscles that cross it or that move the pelvis.

In today's episode, Rebecca and I discuss the topic of incontinence and pelvic floor concerns. Rebecca explains the who, what, when, why and offers excellent advice about how to deal with this issue. Subjects like incontinence can be uncomfortable to talk about but we need to talk about it, just like menopause, menstruation, hemorrhoids, hernias, issues that will affect training and our livelihoods. Don't stay quiet. If you are having concerns, please see your doctor. Dr. Sarah Ellis Duvall, DPT, CPT, CNCSarah is a physical therapist and founder of Core Exercise Solutions.

This week I sit down with Dr. Jen Fraboni, an internationally-renown physical therapist who specializes in helping people overcome chronic pain and maximize physical performance. In 2019, Jen was named one of the top 50 most influential healthcare professionals and she currently co-hosts "The Optimal Body Podcast”, with her husband, who is also a Doctor of Physical Therapy.

During this call we review the SI joint mobility locator test and talk about assessment and treat guidelines and some treatment options. We also explore where SI joint pain fits in this clinical picture and how to truly diagnose the SI joint as the pain generator vs. if it is coming from another one of the many things that connects to or significantly influences the SI joint. I also answer all the questions that have come up in the course and share why continuing the educational journey to the LTAP Level 1 course may be the key to getting even better results!Watch on YouTube for a limited time: https://youtu.be/8kf1Qmo1nC8Enroll in the LTAP Level 1 course: https://www.movementrev.com/ltap-level-1-2023Considering the viscera as a source of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction is a great way to ensure a more true whole body approach to care, however it can be a bit overwhelming on where to start, which is exactly why I created the Visceral Referral Cheat Sheet.

Here is the clinical story of a client that is presenting with pain/sensitivity in the area of the (R) posterior pelvis.  A common area of symptoms for many patients. But there are many potential drivers and the need to differentially diagnose is crucial.   Why? Because you won't want to miss the hidden connections that are so often present in patients, that when missed, can make the difference between a successful outcome and a patient who walks away unhappy.  In this episode, we discuss what has been unhelpful for her with regard to past interventions and why the biopsychosocial approach and creating the therapeutic alliance are so important to give her the ability to improve her movement system. Meaningful activities, violating expectations, and movement system changes were key to her healing journey.   A glance at this episode: [1:35] History of the patient [5:30] Digging deeper to find the driver [9:19] Lifestyle changes that work [15:00] Establishing an alliance to explore fears [25:30] Making the evaluation meaningful to the patient [33:23] The reset exercise [37:33] The problem with a sagittal plane squat   Related links: Tough To Treat Website Erica's Course: Decoding the Complex Patient Susan's Pelvic Health Education Subscription Access the Transcript

In this episode, Chad and Kelley interview Dr. Mike Wasilisin, chiropractic specialist and the founder of MoveU. Dr. Mike is on a mission to empower every human being to take care of their own body and fix their own pain through proper body movement and a champion mindset. Together, they delve into the topic of back pain and its connection to musculoskeletal issues. Dr. Mike emphasizes that 90% of back pain is related to poor movement and posture habits developed during childhood. He questions why healthcare professionals, including chiropractors, focus only on treating symptoms rather than addressing the root cause. If you're someone who struggles with chronic pain and you're ready to learn about the real cause of chronic pain, how mindset is key to healing, and tangible solutions to get relief, this episode is for you.  To connect with Dr. Mike Wasilisin click HERETo connect with Kelley click HERE  

Your SI joints are the 2 little dimples you feel at the very bottom of your lower back.It's a common lower back pain cause and one that is very often self-misdiagnosed as sciatica because of its symptoms.The SI joint causes pain because it takes a large amount of stress from the entire upper body before transmitting that force through those 2 little dimples into your pelvis and legs.Continued sitting, poor posture, lifting incorrectly, scoliosis and other biomechanical factors can increase the stress going through these joints.This leads to varying degrees of damage to your joints and the surrounding muscles and ligaments leading to micro trauma, inflammation and pain.You may be experiencing lower back pain from SI strain if you feel:– Pain over the dimples in your back– Pain running across your back (From the middle towards the sides)– Pain into the groin, the buttock or down the leg to the thighPain running down the thigh is a common referral pattern of SI Joint pain but is often confused for the symptoms of sciatica which is why it's so important to have the cause of your lower back pain correctly diagnosed.Contribute to the 2023 NYC Marathon HERE!

Another issue that gets brought up often among Pilates teachers is Sacroiliac Joint Instability. The issue here is that what your clients with SI instability feel like they want is often very different from what they need, which is more work on stability and less stretching.Today I review the anatomy of the SI Joint, why instability happens, how the symptoms can mimic other back issues (so a medical diagnosis is important), and what to do about it. Hopefully this will help you and your clients!Links:Anatomy - https://www.kenhub.com/en/library/anatomy/sacroiliac-jointPelvic Stability - https://youtu.be/bHHhT_nSdbkFind me:Website - https://lyndalippin.comEmail MeIG - https://instagram.com/lyndalippinFB - https://facebook.com/lyndalippinpilatesLI - https://linkedin.com/in/lyndalippinPinterest - https://pinterest.com/lyndalippinMusic by Nerd SaladLove the podcast?

In this episode, Anna shares her core beliefs about the SI joint:1. The SI joint moves, and the movement is what makes us uniquely human2. The SI joint, in general, is misunderstood and, therefore, often mistreated3. The SI joint is connected to and influenced by everything- the viscera, the central nervous system, the deep fascia, the myofascial /musculoskeletal system, and the peripheral nervesThroughout the episode, Anna talks about the relevant anatomy that is connected to and influences the mobility of the SI joint, how it relates to common pain referral patterns, understanding SI joint pain driven by hypermobility, and how the mobility of the SI joint can actually be a foundational assessment not just for the joint itself but for the full body, examining how the influence of the viscera and nervous system affect whole body movement and mobility.

Welcome to Episode 25 of the Movement Logic podcast! In this solo episode, Laurel shares her history with yoga butt, or, proximal hamstring tendinopathy (high hamstring pain.) This episode is packed with tendon and muscle physiology. It also busts the big myth that yoga butt (and any yoga-related injury) is because we're all woefully “overstretched”. At the end, Laurel shares a 3-step approach to nipping yoga butt in the yoga bud using strength training knowledge and tools.Additionally Laurel examines:  What yoga butt is (hint: a pain in the butt right at the sit bone more technically referred to as proximal hamstring tendinopathy).What a tendinopathy is.Short and sweet hamstring anatomy.Why yoga students might be more likely to experience PHT.That a typical vinyasa or Iyengar-inspired asana class involves a whole bunch of passive forward bends/hamstring stretching and why that makes managing and overcoming yoga butt tough for students in those classes.How Laurel nipped her yoga butt in the bud.The contradictory advice yoga teachers (including Laurel!) gave about what to do about yoga butt.How proximal hamstring tendon compression (rather than tension) plays a role in causing or exacerbating PHT.How strength training can help students overcome and avoid yoga butt.Why the narrative that we're overstretched is illogical and a distraction away from the solution.What motor units are, what muscle recruitment is, and how understanding this aspect of muscle physiology can explain why yoga asana won't make your tendons stronger but strength training will.A 3-step process to overcoming yoga butt as well as encouragement to see a clinician if what you try doesn't seem to help.Reference links:Get the Hip & SI Joint tutorial before the cart closes this Sunday 11/27/22: https://movementlogictutorials.com/movement-logic/hips-tutorial/If you want to stretch your hamstrings please continue to do soEbonie Rio - Isometric exercise in tendinopathyPutting “Heavy” into Heavy Slow ResistanceDo we need to think about connective tissues when strength training?Sign up here for the Movement Logic Newsletter for course discounts and sales and receive a free mini Pelvic Floor course!Watch the video of this conversation at: www.movementlogictutorials.com/podcastWant more Movement Logic?

SI joint problems can be tricky to diagnose. Although imaging is a diagnostic tool, X-rays alone can't fully identify the problem. Another problem in this area is that while the injury wasn't well known for some time, now - thanks to an over-abundance of so-called ‘treatments', it's actually over-diagnosed and now you can find an endless list of offerings to ‘cure' your back pain. So what really works and how do you know how and where to get the help you need if you or someone you love is dealing with SI joint pain?

In this solo episode, Laurel shares her history with sacroiliac joint (SIJ) pain, and how no less than shifting her identity as a teacher, the way she thought of her SIJ, and the way she moved her body on a regular basis is what was required of her to get herself out of pain.The SIJ is an area of the body that is surrounded by misinformation and tainted by a rather pessimistic outlook on its stability and robustness. These fragilizing, pessimistic attitudes often result in triggering language around the SIJ that can lead people in pain to believe that their SIJ is unstable, out of place, or moving in the wrong ways.This episode combines some anatomy and biomechanics along with plenty of human psychology and even human evolution to examine the power that words have over shaping our beliefs and identity, and how our beliefs and identity, in turn shape the language we use.Laurel invites teachers to examine their beliefs about the body and question the words they use as thoughtfully as they choose their sequences, exercises, props, cues, and alignments. Additionally Laurel examines: Prevailing myths around the SIJ in both the movement and PT world.The problem with ideas around right and wrong alignment or good and bad exercises with regards to SIJ pain.A walk down memory lane to remember all the poses, alignments, and whole approaches to practicing the asanas that we demonized and blamed for our SIJ pain.Four reasons the SIJ is inherently stable, robust, and awesome.What pain science can teach us about SIJ pain and more and less effective ways of addressing it.What human evolution suggests about the SIJ and its stability.Why looking for a specific faultily-functioning mechanism to “fix” the SIJ is often less helpful than casting a wide net and making the body, or a general region of the body, more tolerant to loads.The scope of practice of a movement teacher when helping their students with painful SIJs feel better.Reference links:Sign up for a FREE mini course about the Hip and SIJ from Movement Logic co-creators Laurel Beversdorf, Dr. Sarah Court DPT, and Jesal Parikh.Changing the Narrative in Diagnosis and Management of Pain in the Sacroiliac Joint AreaDiagnostic Accuracy of Clusters of Pain Provocation Tests for Detecting Sacroiliac Joint Pain: Systematic Review With Meta-analysisThe Physio-NetworkBorn to Walk: Myofascial Efficiency and the Body in MovementThe Story of the Human Body: Evolution, Health, and DiseaseExplain PainPain is Really Strange Sign up here for the Movement Logic Newsletter for course discounts and sales and receive a free mini Pelvic Floor course!Want more Movement Logic?

Have you ever tweaked your low back? First of all, it sucks. But coming back from a low back injury without worrying about doing it again is a very steep, uphill battle. Is it just muscles? Is it degeneration? Is it arthritis? IS IT SI JOINT PAIN?

Host: Sanjeev (Sanj) Kakar, M.D. (sanjkakar) Guest: William W. Cross, III, M.D. (@WilliamCross3MD) Did you know the lifetime prevalence of generalized low back pain is estimated at 60% to 70% in industrialized countries? Often overlooked, the sacroiliac or SI joint can cause approximately one third of these cases. How do you determine the difference between the two? In this week's podcast, we discuss the diagnosis of SI joint dysfunction and the different modalities for treatment, including non-operative and surgical management with William W. Cross, M.D., an Associate Professor in the Department of Orthopedic Surgery at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. Connect with the Mayo Clinic's School of Continuous Professional Development online at https://ce.mayo.edu/ or on Twitter @MayoMedEd.  Resource:   Sacroiliac Joint Clinic in Minnesota - Overview - Mayo Clinic

How to properly diagnose SI joint dysfunction is important to distinguish this overly misdiagnosed condition from something else so you can truly understand where your pain is coming from! So many people are diagnosed with SJ joint problems left and right, but they really are not that common! Many people with disc or nerve related referral problems are misdiagnosed for this!
