Anterior rotation of the innominate bone: Ipsilateral or contralateral cause?

[neuromuscular]

In much that is published, the anterior rotation of the innominate bone is viewed as caused by the quadriceps, sartorius, etc. or other cause on the same side or ipsilateral to the rotation.

Try this:

For every anterior rotation of the innominate bone try a lateral distorition of these muscles on the ipsilateral side. In the vast majority of cases, the quads and sartorius move laterally with little problem and no pain. Further, treating these muscles does not resolve the anterior rotation of the innominate bone.

Step 2:

Now try treating the contralateral adductor longus and/or pectineus. In the majority of cases, the contralateral anterior rotation of the innominate bone corrects to some extent and may in fact "overcorrect".

Once you have tried this, please give me your feedback.

Best regards,

Neuromuscular.
