  • This is so my story. I just had my 5th steroid si joint injection today and it hurt like bloody hell. I've been in pain since my accident last year and I need help! Please post a treatment video for si joint pain so I can point my ortho in the right direction.

  • My SI Joint dysfunction was completly cured by going on a gluten free diet, my ligaments were being attacked by my immune system. Please try it, before having surgery or spending thousands of dollars on therapy. I have already been thru all of that and hope to save you the trouble. Best wishes

  • yes i like the video

  • ive been to 5 differant doctors and not 1 of them metioned this,i have excuriating leg pain from my lower back,nothing showed on ex ray.they said neropathy,bursitis,amd the best of all i had an ortapedic surgeon tell me i have tight hamstrings,cuz he moved my legs in all deifferant directions and i didnt say owe once.its so hard to turnover in bed then when i wake up i have to move as slow as possible and can barley get out of bed due to leg pain,going upstairs hurts as well.im going to tell em.

  • Let your pelvis "slip"as you lengthen your spine.

  • Thanks for the video!

  • need to buy and download this dvd,

    please advise!

  • I require SI joint fusion surgery.

    Can anyone tell me a list of names of surgeons who perform the surgery in Australia? And if not the USA/Canada? It is very difficult to find in Australia but I will travel to America if necessary.

    My spine mri is normal but I had a serious fall and severe pain around the si joint ever since, $45000 spent on all other treatments over 8 years but little improvement. Can not sit down or lie down or do a host of other tasks. Just want to get my life back.

  • @n4979338 Call a Dr. Hauser at Caring Medical in Chicago, Illinois. He has people from all over he world travel to him and has a book chronicling the tens of thousands of people he has helped.

  • low back pain kills me years and

    I was best in the gym but my hollow back

    is the problem.

  • Good discussion of the problem.

  • Great video. Very informative.

  • If you have low back pain, mid-back pain, etc., there is a really good book called "Healing Back Pain" by Dr. John Sarno. It conveys, without a doubt, the most Responsible Content on the matter that I have ever come across and is NOT "about" anatomy in general. You can google his name. You can probably find it at your local library if you don't want to purchase it. P.S. I've had 2 discectomies in the past - didn't know better, and.....yeah, it's a really worthwhile read.

  • This vid took nearly 20 minutes to play.... so slow :(

  • took me 20seconds to load and didnt stop.

  • 8 weeks?

  • Funny, I found the same findings for people with low back pain; that's why I r/o L/S 1st, as I would assume you do..

    If it were SI, I'd expect a trauma unless a female who's pregnant or similar; also the studies show manip to SI doesn't change it's position (unless lax ligs from hormone involvement, etc..); however, it may provide an 'impulse' that can modulate pain. How do you decipher helping them from the natural resolution process? 8 wks is enough time for this.

  • My SI knocks and pops when I lift my knee up and down to chest level. I have horrible pain, but not when I do that. My pain is in my pelvis and legs, 80% on the right side. It comes from a "club foot" that was not repaired 46 years ago.

  • Is the "chronic stretch" why my joint pops or clicks all the time? Will is stop clicking with stablization? Also, should I not stretch my hip out and to the side? It feels good to release the tension in my SI joint area but am I doing more harm?

  • i don't know what a cronic stretch is. but if you throw one leg over the other while lying down, does the SI joint pop? if you try the other side, does it not pop?i propose that the side that pops is the more stable side and the side that doesn't pop, is the fixated - the primary problem side.

  • ostheopatic and soft tissue manipulation should do the trick

  • be very scared if u use a self correction technique like dontigney's without restricting movement to sacrum,e.g. if u posteriorly rotate an anteriorly rotated innominate and u don't restrict movement in the scrum, the rotation can affect the other SI joint and/or mal-align the SI joints more.i've NEVER seen a chiropractor who understands the problem(i've seen alot).in australia,their appnts r 2 short and u keep ur clothes on & like most of the health profession,they just don't have a clue.

  • Im seeing a spinal phyiso (in melbourne) for spinal and sacral probs from playing lots of sport, i find theyre much better than chiropractors..they use gentle mobilisaition instead of 'cracking' the joint.

    Gd luck!

  • This ALL can be fixed by getting a specific CHIROPRACTIC adjustment.

  • Unfortunately this has not been the experience for hundreds of our patients.

    1. We have had many chiropractors who have been thrilled to learn our techniques for SI joint stabilization.

    2. Treating the SI joint complex requires special training (because of rotation combined with an upslip or down slip).

    3. It usually requires six weeks of regular mobilization before it will remain in place. The patient can be tught to do this.

    Patients who do not experience relief may find our methods useful.

  • Thanks for the reply- if my many years of correcting the SI subluxation I have found that by motion palpation and radiographic positional study, a series of specific Chiropractic adjustments correct the misalighment. BTW- I use Gonstead technique.

    Your terminology of upslip and downslip are actually termed (PI for Posterior Inferior and AS for Anterior Superior). The direction of subluxation.

  • Yeah! Where are the stabilization techniques???

    I've also been suffering for two years and am finally at an SI joint dysfunction diagnosis. I've been through 8wks of PT with not much relief! Apparently my docs and therapist aren't as savy about the SI joint as this therapist is.

    After watching this video I've finally made the connection to why I'm feeling like I need to urinate again when I've just finished. Geesh!

  • noes!!! where are the videos telling us how to fix our SI woes?

    lol

  • had the steroid injection (LHS) done in sep last year, been fine until a few weeks ago. starting all over again........the (RHS) is starting to show same symptoms...has anyone tried an inverter? does this make the pain worse or is it good for SI dysfunction??

  • If you're calling an 'inverter' the contraption which you lie upon and then hang upside down with your feet in the air and your head to the floor, I too wondered about that idea. Have you tried it & what happened????

  • good question, ive been thinking the same

    I have a pull up bar in my door way and after some pull up and hanging (just for a few seconds) i do noticed a bit of difference

  • I'd bet it would feel better. The one problem is that those things, or just hanging upside down, is really hard on the blood pressure... it makes it go up. You might remember as a kid feeling like your head was going to pop when hanging upside down. My own injury is calming down after two months so I'm feeling better. But I experienced enough to understand the need for some type of treatment and I'd bet that stretching the spine out by hanging upside down would feel better.

  • A friend of mine has suffered from the SI Joint problem for 20 years after a car accident. He has tried a bunch of chiropractors. He walks really stiff because of the problem and he says listening to his back CRACK as the chiropractor twists it is psychologically hard. I wonder if his various chiropractors have made his condition WORSE. He really shows PAIN some days.

  • @robertmartinez Sacroilac joints aren't meant to be stretched, so yes it can harm the joints to manipulate the joints.

  • i just got an SI joint injection with steriods today. crazy

  • It has taken me two years to get the correct diagnosis and I feel so freed. I am now DEMANDING proper treatment. So sad that most medical doctors have no clue.

  • I love you :)

    Siriously I need to have an apointments with you, I need ppl of my family to be able to correct it. Thanks, world need more ppl like you.
