Background
- Sacroiliac (SI) pain is found in up to 1 in 4 patients with chronic back pain
- Symptoms are primarily experienced in the lower spine, buttock, and hip
- Trauma, as well as, pre and post partum conditions increase the likelihood of SI symptoms
- Patients often report symptoms have not responded to prior treatments and injections
SI Joint Treatments
- An accurate diagnosis can often be found through a thorough history and clinical examination by a DPT trained in the SI joint
- Top level evidence supports the use of spinal manipulation to improve pain
- Treating adjacent joints and muscular pain with dry needling helps accelerate a patient’s recovery
- A gradual, individualized exercise program is critical for long term success
SI Joint Exercise Treatments
- Top level evidence supports the use of strength training for this diagnosis
- Exercise programs progress from local stabilization training to more global strength training exercises
- The goal of the exercise program is to reduce recurrence and allow a safe transition back to each patient’s desired level of activity.
