Low Back and Pelvic Girdle Pain / SIJ Dysfunction
Pain in the low back, pelvis and/or groin and buttocks that may even refer down the legs in the front, back or sides.
May be caused by many different factors including:
- Posture
- Faulty movement patterns
- Muscle imbalances (particularly in the core, spinal muscles, gluteal muscles and other hip and leg muscles)
- Tension in the hips or mid-back
- Pregnancy (may be due to hormonal changes causing laxity in the ligaments, and or rectus diastasis that may be putting more strain on your low back and pelvis)
- Other factors such as surgeries creating adhesions, or chronic conditions that put strain on these areas of the body
