Do you have someone who comes in with low back pain?
Do this first — it can change everything. 👇

Before you touch anything else, check the sacrum.

Run your thumbs down to the inferior lateral angles (ILA) —
those two bony landmarks at the lower corners of the sacrum, just before the tailbone.

Now compare:
👉 Is one side sitting higher than the other?

That gives you a huge clue.

What I often see:
🔽 Lower ILA → overactive piriformis
🔼 Higher ILA → guarding multifidus

These asymmetrical patterns can drive tension into L4, L5, S1.

This is where symmetrical treatment fails.
If you treat both sides the same, you’re guessing.
If you treat the pattern, you get results.

For piriformis:
Rotate the leg (~45°), find it near the top of the greater trochanter (not below).
Have them resist → feel it engage → then release.

For multifidus:
Targeted release on the high side.

Restore balance in the system…
and the sacrum will often self-correct.

Chronic back pain.
Sudden onset.
Post-fall.

👉 Check the ILA first.

Work smarter, not harder. 🖤

ISN’T IT IRONIC?

You get a concussion…
and suddenly your brain doesn’t feel like your brain anymore.

You’re dealing with:

• Memory issues
• Brain fog
• Trouble focusing
• Mood swings
• Anxiety or depression
• Headaches that won’t quit
• Fatigue (but somehow also wired?)
• Poor sleep
• Dizziness or balance issues
• Sensitivity to light and sound
• Slower thinking
• Low motivation
• Irritability
• Feeling like “I just don’t feel like myself”

…and more.

⸻

And then you’re told:

“One of the BEST things you can do to heal your brain…
is follow an anti-inflammatory diet.”

⸻

Isn’t it ironic…

That the very injury affecting your brain
also affects your:

• Impulse control
• Decision-making
• Cravings
• Follow-through
• Emotional regulation

AKA… the EXACT skills you need
to actually stick to that diet?

⸻

So instead of meal prepping…
you’re in the drive-thru.

Instead of nourishing your brain…
you’re reaching for sugar, caffeine, and comfort foods
just to feel normal again.

⸻

That’s not a lack of discipline.
That’s brain physiology.

⸻

And THIS is why recovery has to go beyond
“just eat better” or “just rest.”

You need support that works WITH your brain
while it’s healing.

⸻

✨ Nervous system regulation
✨ Brain-based recovery tools
✨ Bodywork that restores function
✨ Simple, realistic strategies that meet you where you are

⸻

Because healing your brain
shouldn’t require a perfectly functioning brain.

⸻

If you’ve been in an accident and still don’t feel like yourself…
your symptoms are real—and they’re treatable.

Book a session or check out our recovery program.
Let’s help your brain come back online—properly.

You can procrastinate
on a lot of things…

Your body isn’t one of them.

Pain doesn’t disappear—
it adapts, compensates,
and spreads.

Ignoring it delays healing.

Listen early. Heal smarter.

Don’t wait
until it’s hard to fix.
