Axis of sacral rotation is the ________ of seated flexion results
opposite.
positive RT seated flexion = LT axis of rotation
Sacral Sulcus palpation tells the therapist
The Rotation of the sacrum
what position is the sacrum in a Rt on Rt
rotated right on a right oblique axis.
the sacrum is flexed/anterior
What position is the sacrum in a Lt on Lt
Rotated left on a left oblique axis.
the sacrum is flexed/anterior
What position is the sacrum in a Rt on Lt
Rotated right on a left Oblique axis.
The sacrum is extended/posterior
What position is the sacrum in a Lt on Rt
Rotated left on a right oblique axis.
the sacrum is extended/posterior
The MOI of a RT on RT
multif has 2 actions here
Rt multif - extends the lumbar and rotates it Lt resulting in right sacral rotation and flexion
Lt piriformis - supports the Rt oblique axis when the sacrum is flexed.
Rt psoas - rotates the lumbar to the Lt causing the sacrum to rotate Rt.
Lt QL - extends the lumbar and rotates it to the left, flexing the sacrum and causing Rt sacrum rotation
The MOI of a LT on LT
Multif has 2 actions here
Lt multif - extends the lumbar and rotates it Rt resulting in left sacral rotation and flexion
Rt piriformis - supports the Lt oblique axis when the sacrum is flexed.
Lt psoas - rotates the lumbar to the Rt causing the sacrum to rotate Lt.
Rt QL- extends the lumbar and rotates it to the right, flexing the sacrum and causing Lt sacrum rotation
The MOI of a Rt on Lt
Pirformis has 2 actions here
Lt piriformis - rotates the sacrum to the right in extension and pulls it onto a left oblique axis
Rt multif - rotate the lumbar left resulting in right sacral rotation.
Rt psoas - flexes the lumbar and rotes it left, resulting in right sacrum rotation and sacral extension
Lt QL - rotates the lumbar left resulting in right sacral rotation
The MOI of a Left on RT
Piriformis has 2 actions here
Rt piriformis - rotates the sacrum to the left in extension and pulls it onto a Rt oblique axis
Lt multif - rotates lumbar Rt resulting in left sacral rotation.
Lt Psoas - flexes the lumbar and rotates it Right, resulting in Left sacrum rotation and sacral extension
Rt QL - rotates the lumbar left resulting in right sacral rotation.
Palpate for rotation
sacral sulcus
sacral ILA
Standing sacrum/SI assessments
Posture (static & dynamic)
active hip ROM
Standing Flexion
Trendelenburg
Seated sacrum/SI assessments
active lumbar ROMs
Slump
seated flexion test
Supine sacral/SI assessments
Assess for tight hamstings causing a false + standing flexion
Assess tight/weak adductors
SLWL
Palpate ASIS for rotation and flairs
Check for apparent short leg
Prone sacrum/SI assessments
Sacral Sulcus for Rotation
Sacral ILA for rotation
Springy lumbar for sacral extension. (check)
SIM is when
the therapist uses the clients muscle action to make adjustments to their dysfunctional side.
ex. using their RF to anteriorly rotate the innominate.
Consultation questions
What brings you in today?
Any new injuries to that area?
Any old injuries to that area?
Have you seen a Dr. in regards to your pain, and or gotten any imaging done or received a diagnosis?
Are you on pain medication?
Can you describe your pain?
On a scale from 1 to 10, 10 being that absolute worst in your life, what would you rate your current pain and does the number change depending on activity or time of day?
Medical history?
When there is an ACUTE injury how does massage help
Massage above and below the site of the injury may reduce swelling, prevent excessive splinting by surrounding muscles, and speed the healing process
