New research: No such thing as "stuck" SI joint

[alophysio]

Hi Neuromuscular,

No, we are talking about the same thing.

+'ve stork test (stance phase - where you measure the PSIS and sacrum on the stance leg, not the hip flexion leg)
= unlocking of SIJ = counternutation of sacrum relative to innominate or anterior rotation of innominate relative to sacrum

In other words, what you described above in your APAS test...

...which simply means stork test +'ve can produce the same results as your APAS test

Dear ALophysio:

Thank you for your reply.

You speak only of the one type of standind SIJ test - with hip flexion - and ignore the standing SIJ test with torso flexion. Why?

I have given data on the percentages with the APAS test. Can you tell me where there are any similar breakdowns on findings with the stork test - Myk Hungerford, Dianne Lee or standard variety? I have not seen them.

The torso flexion variety of the standing SIJ test is a stance phase also. How do you view its results?

I like the hip ABD for the reason that the data is produced in repeatable and in segments that allows the practitioner to consider what is happening at a slower rate. I find that the others happen too fast and aspects are missed or misread.

Nest regards,

Neuromuscular.
