Pelvis
- Comprises of ilium, ischium, and pubis
Hip bone
- Upper most portion of the hip bone
Ilium
- Posterior lower part of the hip bone
Ischium
- Anterior lower part of the hip bone
Pubis
Sacroiliac Joint Type of Joint
Syndesmosis and synovial type of joint (would not allow movement and allow movement)
Resting Position of SI Joint
Neutral
Capsular Pattern of SI Joint
Pain when joints are stressed
OPP of SI Joint
Counter Nutation
CPP of SI Joint
Nutation
True or False:
* When we walk, there is jarring force or bumps that are coming from the floor going to the lower extremity up until to the upper extremity.
* Pelvis decreased the force when walking and bumping from the spine
True
Nutation
- Forward motion of the base of the sacrum into the pelvis
- Backward rotation of ilium on the sacrum
Counter Nutation (Sacral Unlocking)
- Forward motion of the ilium on the sacrum
- Backward motion of the sacrum into the pelvis
Sacral Promontory: Ant. and Inferior.
