One and the same thing, it still amounts to hamstring stretching, nothing new!

I'm so glad I found you - the explanation and exercise description is brilliant. This is my first day of starting these exercises and I am so hopeful that I can improve the pain I'm experiencing. Thank you, I'll let you know how I get on 😊

I have si issues on the left side and pelvic floor issues. This weekend has been nothing but pain. But for the first time the side of leg and top of thr thigh are a little numb and i feel pain on there. Is this normal to get with si issues.

I've been working on touching my toes for 3 months now, couldn't even do it when I was in sports as a kid. Just genetically not flexible, and it has done wonders, wonders on my ability to bend over. Like no joke. I still can't touch my toes but maybe one day.

Thanks for sharing this information and methods. It all made sense and I will surely be more aware of my movement going forward. I would like to suggest to you that, with this video, a lot of what you shared was lost to us viewers due to you wearing dark colours in front of a dark background. the second exercise was almost invisible.

Can I do the side plank resting on the sides of my feet instead of the my knees?

Thank you1 Very helpful!

Thanks a lot!

It would be easier to see you if you move away from the bookcase

Thanks for a very informative video. I have had adjustments for years from Chiropractors and Osteopaths which have helped my low back issues. A few years ago I was treated by a Gonstead Chiropractor - he performed a adjustment on my left side ilium/ SI joint. In over 20 years no other chiropractor had adjusted me this way. He had me lie on my right side and used a lot of force coming straight down on top of my hip/ilium. The adjustment left me in a lot of pain through my SI joint and groin. Somehow he managed to completely change the position of my pelvis. I could no longer walk properly or fold one leg over the other while sitting on a chair. I'm now left with serious sciatica as the Piriformis on that side is compressing the nerve. Sitting and standing still cause a lot of pain. My GP ordered a lumbar spine MRI which showed minor issues are L4 L5. Would you reccomend that I get an MRI of my SI joint ? Thanks for any advice.

Sir Iam from central Africa,and I savory question i want to ask you about hips problem. Into know what happens on my bones but I have pineapple and down pines continue. i have been living with 10 year ago.i have trying many medical but I still have pines what can I do

So if i follow all these i can correct this due to forward head posture

Thank you so much! I’ve had low back pain and tight hamstrings for a very long time.

I have 11 herniated discs. 4 cervical, 4 thoracic, and 3 lumbar. I live a pretty miserable existence. I see a chiropractor but she's not addressing the things that you're talking about here. I'm gonna try these exercises for my neck c-6 is causing many problems. I'm too far from you in Pa. I won't give up but it's becoming harder and harder to function😢

Oh my gosh. What do I owe you? What a gift you have given here!

4 years of pain

This has been truly helpful. I will order the belt to test if it gives me relief. Also, are there any vegan supplement recommendations? Thanks so much.

Back in 02, and after a year of trying a number of things, it came to a fusion L5 S1. I went into surgery on a Monday at 07:00hrs, and out around 13:00hrs, home the next day (Tuesday at 11:00). The following Monday, I was back to work. I was pain free until 5, to 6 months later when scar tissue started. Again, tried caro, water ther, rub-downs, stretching, and ... Well, the scar tissue decided to attack S1, then S2. In 04 my Doc sent me to PM. Now it was the drug game, trying 4, 5, 6, different meds, some worked, but I slept, some worked 3, 4 hours and I needed another, it became a nightmare. I ended up where the PM Doc said, let's try 40mg Meth with 3, 750 vics a day. I did not want the Meth due to the stigma attached to it, but I tried it. Well, it worked, but I was a zombie, not knowing day or time. I was out of the system. I was / still with USCG, DHS, and FD, as well as a Natl. firearms instructor, this had to stop. I told PM I was going to stop the V-750s by taking 1 away every ten days. I wanted to see where the pain started. By the end of the month I was off the V-750s, then I asked the Doc for 8, 5mg instead of 4, 10s, and my plan was take 5 away every ten days. I found myself getting back to my old self. After about a year, I cut myself back to 5mg, 3 times a day. I am in pain, but when I am busy, I do not notice it. At 75, I am still with USCG as SO CM, Teaching Navigation, and firearm safety. I feel like I am living a somewhat normal 75-year-old life. At one time the doc said another surgery my do it, I said, another surgery will only make more scar tissue, No thanks. Don't fall for it.

My S I joint issues are affecting my knee. I was Rx gabapentin without any pin meds and or steroids, so it hasn’t done much. Chiropractor was useless. My primary wants to send me to pin management clinic when they would probably go for a nerve block. When I said SI joint to my doctor he looked at my like I had two heads. Then I said “ you call it my hip”. 😂

My si joint is always popping like crazy. I think at this point im beyond fixing.

This seems my last month’s story. Just started to have this huge neck pain from nowhere. Had 5 sessions with an osteopath and did MRI to cervical and shoulder. I am waiting for a consultation with an orthopedist but not sure if he will help… the reports didn’t point to any specific problem… maybe a little bit with the shoulder… but let’s see. Hope I am able to solve this soon :)

Hi. Thank you for your great videos. I often wake up with numbness in my small and ring fingers, which varies depending on which side I sleep on. This is likely due to a pinched nerve in my neck i think. Will these exercises help alleviate the issue?

Omg…I think I have this. I was laying on my left side propped up by some pillows reading and all of a sudden I felt a pop and shift and was in so much pain. I thought I broke a rib. That was three years ago and have been in pain since. It super hurts when I sit in a chair and turn to open a drawer or reach for something. If I am turned a certain way like twisting to reach in the backseat of my car from outside it I have pain. It doesn’t really hurt in the back near the spinal cord, more to the left side .

How does having drop foot in both feet affect the SI joints?

Thank you so much for the most informative neck video - I was in an accident 7 years ago and I got whiplash - as I get older the pain has got worse - I want to do your exercises, so need to get a foam roller, can you tell me the diameter measurement? Thank you, Lynn Johannesburg SA

Fabulous! Are these exercises ok to do if I already have hip bursitis both sides and lower back pain (scoliosis and 2 building discs)?

On the first exercise if you can't balance, like you feel like you're going to fall over if you don't hold onto something with your opposite side hand, A) does that tell you anything? And B ) is that OK? Thank you. 😊

Does this kind of belt relief SI joint pain while sitting?

After years of trying to figure it out, THIS IS MY PROBLEM!!!….i thought it was my psoas for a long time then thought it was one of my glute muscle, then I though it was a different muscle!!!!!….really appreciate this video!

Do you have any solutions for 4 bulging discs??

Thank you so much!!...your explanation is soooo perfect. 🙏

Thank you. I

I have neck pain and shoulder since I had car accident very painful

I’ve heard that anesthetized patients are completely flexible, so I guess it makes sense that it’s a mental barrier.

Wow great demonstration!!!

I wish I could get you to look at my chronic issue that is definitely tied to my flat feet but also somehow to my knees.

Hi thank you so much am trying these and I do feel better .thank you..Its the 9th June 2024

So the short leg is the side where the pelvis is elevated correct, that’s where really all my right sided pain is coming from. Lower back pain to right ql pain, to right knee pain etc. this is where the heel lift should go correct ? Please help your video has opened many doors. Thank you.

you have a very nice way about you

I did all the exercises but number four generated some deep pain at the bottom of my neck and clavicle into my left shoulder. Am I possibly doing something wrong or does it indicate something differently? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for this video

Im not a big fan of lifts to the shoe. A hip hike can be functional in that the QL is overused and has become so tight, it pulls the pelvis up. This occurs because of other muscles not pulling their weight, usually the glute medius on the same side the tight QL is on.

Very well thoroughly explained....Nice video

Please stop the music that wastes time and blasts your earphones. Message is great. Thx

What kind of doctor will access and recommend heel lift?

Excellent video!! I absolutely love the fact that you teach us and educate us on how our joints and muscles work before showing us the exercises for them. The use of the skeleton to show us how we hold our necks extended instead of sitting on our spine is life changing. I had heard of it many many times before, but the visual that you provided put everything into perspective for me. Thank you so much for helping us. God bless you and your family.

Sir please come to India I am suffering

How many times per week, please? Thank you!!

Thanks ,doc.. I will try it..I'm from Philippines..
