Functional Anatomy of the Pelvis and the Sacroiliac Joint: A Practical G

Description

In Functional Anatomy of the Pelvis and the Sacroiliac Joint, author and respected bodywork specialist John Gibbons looks at one of the most important areas of the body―the pelvis and the sacroiliac joint―teaching the reader how to recognise pain and dysfunctional patterns that arise from the pelvic girdle.

Gibbons addresses key issues such as:

• The walking/gait cycle and its relationship to the pelvis;
• Leg length discrepancy and its relationship to the kinetic chain and the pelvis;
• The laws of spinal mechanics;
• The relationship of the hip joint, gluteal muscles, lumbar spine to the pelvis;
• Sacroiliac joint screening;
  

  In addition, this fully illustrated book provides step-by-step techniques to identify and correct a number of impaired patterns as well as functional exercises for the pelvis that promote recovery.
