Dear Alophysio:

I did not say that I have never read the research. I said that I have not read as much as you.

The point of interst is that the standing Wikipedia reference-linkSIJ test with hip flexion or torso flexion is at odds with the same landmarks of PSIS to sacrum with hip ABD. That is the point of interest. In the standing SIJ test with hip flexion or torso flexion a positive beomes a negative in the standing SIJ test using PSIS to sacrum with hip ABD. How would you prove which one is the true "positive" of "negative"???

I find load transfer tests or weight transfer tests as too orchestrated to be unbiased. Which one would you prefer to be used? Why that test? What would it prove?

Further, I find that the anterior rotation indicated in the standing APAS test is from a contralateral side and unlike the common viewpoint that the anterior rotation of the innominate bone is from an ipsilateral cause.

That is of major impact on therapy.

Best regards,

Neuromuscular.
