Sacroiliac Joint Pain? Stop Stretching (part II)

I have found the last 2 exercises work best for me. It takes TIME. Be patient with yourself.

This video make me feel so hopeful 🥹🙏 thank you. How often can I do these exercises?

thank you very much. I've had this problem for 2 years. I will do these exercises.

Thanks for the video! I've had SI joint pain for 5 years. Which set of exercises should I start with? The three exercises from your first SI video or the ones in this video? Thanks.

Hello, I have this problem and I will do the exercises but I would like to know if I can continue running or is it better to wait until I improve?

Weight training is the best thing I've done for my SI pain. Medial RDLs in particular.

These exercises work- I tried everything, especially stretching 👎. If you get everything strong around a joint, it's protective. Sports taping the SI joints really helps too

You are amazing! Thank you so much for this video. I am going through menopause and I am in excruciating pain in my hips, pelvis, SL joint and all over the body really. It has been over 2.5 years of misery and nobody seems to be able to help. I used to be very fit all my life but menopause decided to take it away from me. I hardly can walk now, can't sit longer than 10 min., have an abnormal amount of clicking and constantly in pain. I think my ligaments are giving up on me. I need some strengthening around my joints and muscles but all exercises that I keep doing nearly every day seems to be making me weaker and bringing more pain than relief. Any chance that you could do a video related to my problems or even a personal strengthening program, I would love to purchase it from you if you do such a thing. Hope to hear from you soon. Many thanks.

How often is it OK to do this routine? Once per day? Less, more?

Does this mean i cant practice front splits with my sacroilitis?🥹🥹

One of my friend is having same pain and now post hip surgery more issues , please suggest

Hello, a month ago, while hanging curtains, I put a lot of strain on the right side. My lower back and right hip hurt a lot for 3-4 days and it completely healed within 2 weeks, but now the pain is starting again when I sit or lie down. And there is stiffness in my right hip. Do you think this is a sacroiliac problem or something else? And how can I completely get rid of it?

Hi there can’t see PDF in the description. Have I missed something? Thanks

How can I consult you???

Thanks for this video. I have SI pain for almost a year now. Can I do regular exercises too? Like squats and lunges and burpees ?

My right SI joint is killing me! That twisted ankle analogy makes perfect sense. I will try the exercises and pray they work.

do you have Si pain/ injury yourself ?

Thanks for taking so much time to coach us through these exercises. I have some pain in my right groin and approximately in my sacroiliac joint. It started while I was jogging, over 3 months ago, although it is about 75-90% better than it was when it started.

I have problem doing some of your exercises. I get more back pain at times and relief at other times. If I stretch and hold too it sometimes gets tied up and immobilise me.

Thank you

"I have a question. I have spondylolisthesis, sacroiliac pain, and piriformis syndrome, all because I lifted my handicapped father from the floor with a squat and a twist, throwing him onto the bed. That was the trauma that started everything. My pain is exacerbated by sitting in my chair working and the vibrations of the bus. So, after doing your exercises, my glute got tense or tight, related to the piriformis syndrome. My traumatologist says that I shouldn't do things that tense the glute, but that there are different schools of thought about everything related to my issues. What do you think? Should it get tense to eventually strengthen and stop the pain? Thank you."

Can I do your psoas video stretching even though I have the si joint pain too? I feel like I need to combine your si joint, piriformis and psoas videos all together !

WoW the seated one sure does the job!!! Thanks!❤

Urgent advise for my issue
1. Tiny osteophytes in L4 and L5
2. IV disc space reduced between L5-S1
3. Sclerotic changes in both SI joints but pain in my left side
4. Lumbor lordosis is normal
5. No spondylitis is seen

This was an amazing video, im so glad it introduce me to your channel

only watched this video and i can tell a well-deserved 600k subscibers. you are a good teacher. god bless.

So I get laying off stretching while doing exercises to try and tighten, stabilize the joint. But every video on relieving pain now starts talking about stretches of some sort. What's the answer on some short term relief while working toward stability?

Currently pregnant, I was laying down leaning on my right side, suddenly felt my tailbone pop towards my left side. I am now having excruciating pain that seems like Sacroiliac pain and looking to see how to help this, I see my doctor in a few days hopefully she can recommend me to a physical therapist but everyone is saying to stretch and you're the first person I've heard to say "don't stretch".. so I'm just trying to find the safest and most effective way to help the situation.

Lucas, will this work if my injury is old?

Hey, i am suffering from all these Problems -

Si joint stiffness and inflammation
Muscles stiffness
Straightening of spine
Pelvis tilt
Alignment/weight bearing problem
(I usually stand on left leg, standing on both legs/right leg gives me pain)

Due to this, i get pain during walking, sitting, lying on my back.

Bending gives me relief but arching my back eg. Cobra pose. Gives me pain.

Sitting on floor cross legged with back straight or slouched also gives me pain.

What to do??

Tried literally everything to get rid of this. Pls help.

It's been 2 years, i m in chronic pain

Most of the poses have some kind of twist , folding,
I love yoga?? Tell me how should I proceed???

I love it....well done Lucas..awesome!!!

Iam from India and I have never seen a more scientific approach to traditional yoga. Hats off to you !!. Came across this video for finding something to treat my SI joint pain. Today is my second day. Will let you know if my pain subsides.

My right leg rotates outwards and I have pain in lower back and radiates down leg will this help or do I need to work the psoas?

I also have anterior tilt

I definitely go a lot slower bc I have to remember to breathe. I always would hold my breath. Plus we tighten our gluts remember to fill the chest with air, I'm so not used to this but I'll keep going. It's worth it.😊

Does this help with arthritis caused by Crohn's disease. I have arthritis in different areas in my spine. So, I'm hoping this will help. Glad I found your video.

Thank you, Lucas. Your work is intelligent, thoughtful, made for all types of learners, and I am so glad to have found it.

#3 there is controversy on making that muscle do any more work since it is often taking on too much to compensate for glutes.

i have si joint pain because of the movement in my pelvis, diagnosed yesterday by the orthopedic. I forgot to ask him about yoga. Would you rec I stave off my yoga classes? Do more strength instead? Doc also gave me a sheet of rehabilitation exercises and a way to reset my pelvis- by pusing against my knees while laying down. I went to yoga class this morning, and am wondering if I am just making it worse even though I feel so stiff, hmm

I'm in awe of this video. I've been round and round trying to figure out what's been going on with my right hip since I did something to it in dance class months ago. Nothing has helped really... until I found this video! Thank you! 😊

I love how you teach your poses,so very helpful.

I appreciate how you explain it all

Many thanks.

I believe that I caused this injury trying to do a pistol squat without any progression towards that exercise. Does that sound credible?

When my SI joint goes out; I do yoga stretching in 3/4 days it’s gone!!!

So no psoas or hip stretches

Will this help if you are constantly having forward rotation of your right hip?

Very informative! Something that we can do in the comfort of our homes. 🙂
