What is the SI joint?
The sacroiliac (SI) joints are in the lower back and formed
by the connection of the sacrum and the right and left
iliac bones. The SI joints connect the spine to the pelvis
and is held together by ligaments. There is little movement
at the SI joints.

regiment of Pilates and the foam roller.

What are some of the causes of SI joint
dysfunction?
1) Arthritis
- The cartilage layer that covers the SI joint becomes damaged
or worn away.
This causes the bones to rub against one.
2) Pregnancy
- During pregnancy hormones are released to allow ligaments
to relax. This relaxation of the ligaments that hold the SI
joints together allows for increased motion in the joints and
can lead to increased stresses and abnormal wear. Altered posture,
gait and weight gain during pregnancy can attribute to SI joint
dysfunction.
3) Trauma
- A fall on the buttocks that jolts the joints.
4) Biomechanical
- Leg length differences, over-pronation, twisted pelvis, muscle
imbalances.
What are some of the symptoms
of SI joint dysfunction?
1) Pain located either on the left-side or right-side of your
lower back. The pain can range from an ache to a sharp pain
which can restrict movement. The pain may radiate out into your
buttocks and low back and will often radiate to the front into
the groin.
2) Difficulty turning over in bed.
3) Difficulty putting on shoes and socks.
4) Pain getting your legs in and out of the car.
5) Stiffness in the lower back when getting up after sitting
for long periods and/or getting out of bed in the morning.
6) Aching on one side of your lower back when driving long distances.
