POV: You’ve had hip & low back pain for years… then your chiropractor takes an X-ray and finds THIS. 👀
When you come in with ongoing low back, hip, or tailbone pain, we don’t just want to chase the pain — we want to understand why it’s happening.
First, we take a thorough history to find out if there has been any trauma, injury, or other event that could have contributed to your pain.
Then we assess your range of motion and perform orthopedic testing to see how your body is moving and where the problem may be coming from.
But sometimes, X-rays can give us another piece of the puzzle. 🩻
In this particular case, you can see an unlevel pelvis, which can be associated with a variety of factors, including trauma, overuse or repetitive stress, postpartum changes, or other biomechanical issues.
So what’s the plan from here?
➡️ Chiropractic adjustments
➡️ Targeted strengthening and corrective exercises
➡️ Determining whether a heel lift may be appropriate
➡️ Evaluating whether there is a true leg-length difference or if the difference is related to pelvic rotation
Every patient is different, which is why we take the time to examine the whole picture rather than simply treating the spot that hurts.
If you’ve been dealing with constant hip, low back, or tailbone pain and feel like you’ve never gotten to the bottom of it, we’d love to help.
