SI Joint Pain Relief with Somatics [Quick and easy!]

I really feel a big difference after I do your somatic stretches. Thank you Colm for everything you do to make our bodies feel better

I had a total hip replacement after a freak accident in MMA class. I've been fit, active, strong, and flexible my entire life, but I had problems after surgery with constant pain and discomfort. The physio only picked up that I had almost zero internal hip rotation on the op side a year after the op! I switched physio after that. The next one was OK, and rotation improved, but my sacral joint and the whole band to the outside of my glutes is tight, sore, and uncomfortable. I've stretched and done physio every day, but nothing helped. My QL was also rigid. Anyhow, I did your QL exercise and then this video. Wow! The pain hasn't gone yet, but there was a huge difference in the position of my back on the floor. The pain has moved to a central point, and I'm icing it now. Even though, I'm uncomfortable, I'm confident that repeating these exercises will get my sacral joint back to normal. Thank you 😊

Hi Jan, excellent! You're very welcome. I'm glad this has helped you. To continue improving, I'd recommend also following the Daily Routine video regularly (link below), that covers all the most fundamental Somatic movements and will release and relax your entire body: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pqnUnXR3i9GFgbc If you'd like some real time help, I also offer online 1-1s.

Oh my goodness this series of movements is EXACTLY what I needed! I have been doing Somatics for a couple of years now and this has enabled me to continue doing CrossFit mostly on a daily basis. But I was continuing to experience this nagging, persistent lower back pain on one side radiating towards my knee. The first time I did this routine I immediately experienced relief! I have been combining this routine with your “release tight hips (glutes, piriformis, hamstring)” routine and I FEEL GRRREAT!! Colm, you have such an amazing way to explain the exercises so that we can do them correctly. And of course labelling the routines in such a helpful manner makes it so easy to find the perfect match! THANK YOU SO MUCH COLM!

Dear Colm, I LOVED your longer session #7 on lower back release! It made my lower back feel brand new! Although I have learned and performed each of these same movements many times before, your approach, your crystal clear instructions and your combination and sequencing of these same movements are so much more effective for me! I hope to learn this one thoroughly then move on to class # 5 for hips! THANKS AGAIN!!

Thanks so much. I have got this sequence saved, but it's amongst 60 others of yours, so not always easy to find😊 and I often end up doing another sequence instead. This is going to make things much more simple, thanks again.

You got it!

Important to non believers in Somatics , the picture of the pain that can be help-fuull towards our discomforts ,pains I have had for the past few years. So I have done this amongst other movements of Colms and I don't have that pain now. I might do this again and the one for tight spots in the back before bed.

[@rnannon]

Nice one. I could really feel the SI joints moving and loosening up. Nice, clear instructions and to the point.

[@redpilled9595]

That was fantastic, my arch definitely felt more down the middle.

[@LearnSomatics]

Nice work!

[@redpilled9595]

If this movement makes my arch feel more down the middle should I do this before doing all the other arching movements on the channel?

[@LearnSomatics]

You could do that for sure. Any twisting movement will help too tho. Alternatively just cross your legs when doing arch and flatten. A couple of reps with legs crossed each way will straighten it out.

Nice!!

[@cinmac3]

why would i need to adjust myself on my back and when i can i have to flatten beforei Arch, it been this way for a while now, i keep forgetting to ask...? i hope you can give me a suggestion, Colm.

[@LearnSomatics]

Flattening before you arch is fine, it means your tighter in your belly muscles. This would also make laying on your back less comfortable. Focus on releasing your abdominal muscles.

[@cinmac3]

why do they or you say that on any of the videos or did i not hear it ?!!

[@cinmac3]

Hi Colin . Helen here again . My right lower back muscles seem to feel a lot tighter and more sore always when I arch and tighten .they say my right leg is shorter than left or my pelvis is lopsided.Do you know what this means and how to fix it? I must say that right side felt less constricted and a bit looser after doing this. lesson . So Thankyou so much for this .

Hi Helen, have a look at the following videos they should help: Balance: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jIa9p6ann7qIbtk Leg Length: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5KQY2uFeJd4f7M Daily Routine: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pqnUnXR3i9GFgbc You could also keep doing the SI Joint video as it cover the same areas Let me know how it goes!

[@LearnSomatics]

Oh excellent! Thank you for sharing. It's always interesting to note what else improves when we reduce muscular tension in a systemic way.

[@elizabethb6907]

I’ve been doing several of these movements, creating playlists and they, along with PT have made such a difference. A few weeks ago, I believe I overstretched on the arch and flatten. Now, I’m having significant pain in my left SI joint. I’ve discontinued for now (after a full year of amazing results). I had PT several years ago for SI joint dysfunction and I think my joints are hyper mobile. Do you have a suggestion? I’m hesitant to resume until I’m better. Thank you so much for these very helpful videos.

Great video thanks! I feel like one side wants to "pop" when I do the hip hikes both ways..... is it because my SI JOINT is really angry??

Do we keep the head only at the right side or can we change it. What to do if the tension moves to an other place after an movement?

[@LearnSomatics]

You can turn your head to whichever side is most comfortable. After a sequence like this do the Daily Routine, that will help to integrate changes and address any other areas of tension that arise.
