SI Joint - Sacrum & Low Back Support Classes

SI Joint - Sacrum & Low Back Support Classes

Like with all things, when we have pain we need to have a comprehensive approach to our practice. This playlist includes elements of mobility, myofascial release, stability and of course creating some flexibility that otherwise might be hindering the function. Make sure to read the class descriptions. If you are in an ACUTE pain situation, I highly recommend you start with "Damage Control." This class will set a good foundation for the classes that follow.

SI Joint - Sacrum & Low Back Support Classes
  • Damage Control for Low Back & SI Joint (Bonus Class)

    The reason I'm including this class in Restore Your Pelvic Floor is because all the nerves that innervate down into the pelvis, legs and feet START in the low back. So if you hold tension there then that can create issues down the chain.

    This class is appropriate for chronic low back pain, acu...

  • 15 Min Low Back Pain

    This class is an abreviated and updated version of the Low Back Pain Express class. We do many of the same postures but added some new. This class is perfect for pelvic pain but really great for low back pain, sacral (SI Joint) pain and tension.

    You'll need a strap and two blocks.

  • Mini Sacrum & Low Back Support

    As part of our SI Joint & Low Back Pain series, this class takes some important elements of that type of work and condenses it into approximately 20 minutes! There are certain key components that make for an effective movement practice for pain in this area: gentle glute engagement, addressing f...

  • For Sacrum's Sake

    SI Joint pain can be absolutely debilitating. As someone who has personally dealt with it for over 20 years, going in and out of flares, I've really learned what works and what doesn't. These are postures and moves that I personally do to help if I'm in an acute situation or if I want to make s...

  • Glute Release (Piriformis, Sciatica, Tight Hips)

    This class focuses on opening up the muscles of the glutes. I'm sure you've heard of piriformis syndrome where the piriformis muscle (as well as others around it) are tight and start to put pressure on the sciatic nerve. It can be very painful! The nerve itself actually starts in the low back ...

  • Module 2: GPS (glutes, psoas & sitz bones)

    We will be exploring the fascia of the glutes, top of the hamstrings where they attach at the sitz bone and also the psoas and lower abdominal area. All things that will help with low back pain, tight pelvic floor, potentially knee pain, discomfort around the tailbone, sciatica and restricted hi...

  • 15 Min Stability : Subtle Core

    Moving through poses quickly and hardening around engagement takes away the opportunity to connect with the subtleties of movement. In short, we can't feel the little things happening if we don't slow down to pay attention to it. This is especially important with our core work when we are worki...

  • Gentle Hip Release

    This is a simple class to get your hips mobilized and lengthened without the stability work that we often do together. Sometimes, your body (and your mind) just need a little break. This will work all the pertinent areas that create ideal hip health including the glutes, inner thighs, pelvic fl...

  • Yoga for Sit Bone Pain

    In today's class we discuss a few of the most common reasons one may be experiencing sit bone pain. We discuss bursitis, tendonitis and hypertension in the pelvic floor. However, even if chronic pain in this region doesn't ail you, sometimes we can over do it with things like walking more than ...

  • Myofascial Release: Hamstrings and Outer Hips

    The back of the legs tend to be a tight and even sore area for many people. The muscles there are required to do a lot throughout the day. Hamstrings will often fire on to compensate for weak or underworking gluteal muscles. Often you can have pain around the sitz bones and experience pain duri...

  • Flow for Sacrum & Low Back Pain

    Today's class is all about creating mobility and bringing blood flow to the low back and sacrum. Many of us experience low back discomfort either chronically or acutely expecially when there are some other underlying pelvic things going on.

    This is a good class to visit if you aren't in an ac...

  • Slide & Glide Myofascial Release: Lower Body

    Today we have a different approach to how we release the fascia in the lower body. We have explored manipulating the tissues using props like tennis balls and blocks up to this point and today, our focus turns towards a more "slide and glide" approach where we bring circulation and rhythm to the...

  • Low Back Pain

    Contrary to popular yoga instruction, backbends are contraindicated for sacral or lumbar back pain. So today, we approach it from a therapeutic angle that makes you feel stronger but more open without irritating the low back more than it is.

    Let’s get to it!

    You’ll need:
    2 blocks
    A Mat
    Strap
