Peggy Lamb – Stabilizing the Core & the SI Joint, A Manual Therapy Approach

Restoring a Stable Base

The sacrum is the cornerstone through which the weight of the upper body flows. Eighty-five percent of the population experiences pain directly related to SI joint dysfunction, which connects the sacrum to the pelvis. When the SI joint works in harmony with the pelvis, a wonderful self-locking device develops allowing us to move with ease and power.

Instructor Peggy Lamb will guide you through innovative and comprehensive strategies, including osteopathic-derived muscle energy techniques and neuromuscular therapy to restore the core and the SI joint. This lab-intensive recording is essential for anyone who uses manual therapy to achieve optimal outcomes for their clients.

1. Review the anatomy and the dynamic nature of the sacrum and SI joint
2. Describe the causes of sacroiliac pain and dysfunction
3. Identify assessment tests of the SI joint and core stabilizing tissue
4. Evaluate SI joint up-slips and corrections
5. Practice techniques for restoring SI joint, sacral, and core function and mobility
6. Apply strategies for resolving functional scoliosis and sciatica
