The Manual Man

08/13/2026

When dealing with pregnant patient it’s all about repositioning the pelvis from an anterior rotation to a posterior rotation. This is necessary secondary to the anterior shift of their center of mass. Where ever your center of mass goes, your pelvis will follow. Here we mobilize the sciatic nerve, which is the most commonly compressed nerve during pregnancy because of the pelvis anterior orientation. This places lots of pressure on the L5-S1 joint inter-space.

After that we do some education of the pelvic anterior elevators. So we can insure the patient does not drive into their past anterior pelvic tilt as they ambulating.

Correcting Left Rib Flare with Tonic Stabilization and Rotation‼️
•
•
•
We talk about how left rib flare is caused by the left transverse abdominis and internal obliques not contracting at a low level for tonic stabilization. We demonstrate the asymmetry and explain that rotating to the right helps close the left ribs, using slow and low movements to improve alignment in standing and walking.

I love the for the purpose of deep soft tissue mobilization of the lower anterior abdominal region including a tight, restricted re**us abdominal, Psoas and illiacus. Im usually using it as the first step for someone with a pelvis stuck in anterior rotation. I like to follow this with a simple hamstring bridge iso-hold with a focus on pelvis orienting towards a posterior rotation.

LOW BACK PAIN WITH FORWARD BENDING❗️
•
•
•
If someone has pain with forward bending, I know the issue here is lack of spinal flexion, specifically at the lumbar region. With lack of spinal flexion, I’m thinking shortness of spinal extensors such as Lumbar paraspinals and QL.
I’m also thinking limitations in vertebral and SI joint gapping. So I know I need to incorporate some type of posterior depression of the pelvis during my treatment and with my neuro-education piece. Here are two of my favorite positions/techniques to get the job done. 1. Seated Forward bend and 2. Side-lying basking seal. Both are focused on creating space to allow spinal flexion to occur! ENJOY❗️

When I see a flat foot, I think of a foot that is desperately trying to find a way to create IR stability, which is lacking in the hip/pelvic joint(s). In a practical-sense, it’s a foot that lacks outter-heel connection to the ground. So how exactly do I fix a flat foot ? I combine the two concepts together. I place the foot in a biased position that automatically orients it to outside heel pressure. Then I create internal rotation demands at the hip and pelvis level, while the outter heel is sensing the ground. Then think about the gait cycle and move the patient through different phases of the cycle with an underlying bias towards IR and outter heel grounding. Then TAAAA-DAAAA, a new foot position has been created.

CHRONIC LOW BACK PAIN‼️
•
•
•
🗣️”My low back gets tight anytime I deadlift or squat.”
🗣️”My low back always seems to be in a state of tension, doesn’t matter how much I stretch!”
🗣️”I hurt my lower back once, now it’s never been the same!”

If you have chronic low back pain, you should be assessing and treating a bone called the sacrum.
•
•
•
The sacrum is the foundation of not only the lower spinal column, but also the pelvic girdle. It’s truly one of the most influential structures in the human body. One of my mentors the great and powerful calls the sacrum one of the keystone structures of the body. Its dysfunctional state can create a rippling effect of compensation up and down the chain. You might feel chronic tightness into the low back region with things like squats and deadlifts. You can try to mobilize/stretch your hips, even your pelvis or your lumbar spine as much as you like, but if your sacrum is stuck in a dysfunctional position, it will stay that way until you mobilize it DIRECTLY. HERE IS HOW!
