For Sacrum's Sake
SI Joint - Sacrum & Low Back Support Classes
•
43m
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 sure it doesn't get there.
There's 3 major muscle groups we will work today including the glutes, hamstrings and pelvic floor. All play a role in stabalizing the sacrum and maintaining it's integrity.
This is a companion class for the "Damage Control for Low Back & SI Pain" class but I will recommend you do this particular one second in line. The other is extremely good for acute pain and while this one is also good, the moves in that one are even more gentle than this.
You'll need a few things for class though! 2 yoga blocks, myofascial ball, chair, foam roller (can omit if you don't have one) and a strap or something similar like a bath robe strap.

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...
