Perfect for you if...

  • You're a physio, sports therapist, or osteopath who needs a practical reference for assessing and treating sacroiliac dysfunction.
  • You have chronic pelvic or lower back pain and want to understand what's actually wrong rather than just getting temporary relief.
  • You're interested in how movement patterns in your hips, glutes, and core affect your entire kinetic chain.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You're looking for a quick fix or miracle cure. This is about understanding mechanics, not quick tips.
  • You prefer narrative-driven health books. This is technical and anatomy-focused with detailed illustrations.
  • You have no interest in the biomechanics side of things and just want exercise prescriptions without the 'why'.

About this book

This illustrated guide offers information, techniques, and exercises for understanding and addressing pelvic pain. The step-by-step guide examines the pelvis and sacroiliac joint and their role within the kinetic chain system. John Gibbons, a registered sports osteopath specializing in sport-related injuries, provides detailed information on recognizing pain and dysfunctional patterns in the pelvic girdle. He presents techniques to correct impaired patterns and functional exercises to support recovery. The guide covers the walking and gait cycle and its relationship to the pelvis, leg length discrepancy and its connection to the kinetic chain, spinal mechanics, sacroiliac joint screening, and the role of muscles including the glutes, psoas, and rectus femoris. It also explains how shortened soft tissues affect pelvic position. The book includes illustrations, photographs, and a quick-reference appendix. It is intended for practitioners, students, and anyone seeking to understand pelvic pain and treatment options.
