Chapter 65: Anterior Pelvic Tilt

The iliopsoas and quadratus lumboas muscles are two important muscles that stabilize the core from the lower back position.

The iliopsoas muscle is different from the quadratus lumbose, and the iliopsoas muscle is located at the lesser trochanteric of the thigh. This gives it an additional function: when fixing its starting point, it can pull up the thigh, and when fixing its insertion point, it can pull the lumbar spine and pelvis towards the thigh.

"What does this have to do with my back pain?"

Yan Qiang said that what Ji Ke, the little brother, said, he could understand every word, why was it so difficult to understand when put together?

"The problem is that Brother Yan, you sit in the office for a long time, which causes the iliopsoas muscles to passively contract and tense, and when you stand, your body will instinctively lean forward because of the pull of the iliopsoas muscles, but subjectively this kind of forward leaning is very unsightly, so you will straighten your body again. ”

Ji Ke stopped and gestured to Yan Qiang to assist in his explanation.

"The end result is that your pelvis will tilt forward because of this staggered force, and your lumbar spine will protrude forward, and you will have back pain. ”

After listening to Ji Ke's story, Yan Qiang was confused for a while.

"Brother, don't tell me about these professional things, hurry up, cure my brother's back pain, and then it's not too late to talk about this!"

The relaxation of the iliopsoas muscles is more complex.

Ji Ke first leaned on the side of his navel with Yan Qiang's four fingers to draw the approximate position, then overlapped the fingers of both hands, gently opened the intestines with the help of abdominal breathing, and then touched the iliac muscle in the iliopsoas muscle.

"Light,,, light,,, light. ”

Yan Qiang gasped, Nima, this hurts more than pushing the lumbar quadratus muscle!

"Relax, the iliac muscles are relatively much more sensitive, and you will feel it when you touch it slightly, endure it for a while!"

It is not easy to find the iliac muscles once, Yan Qiang only needs to push Ji Ke's fingers out with a little force in the abdomen, and easily destroy the massage and release; Ji Ke can only use words to comfort Yan Qiang.

However, the physical pain was obviously more effective and direct than the soothing of words, and Yan Qiang endured it a little for a few seconds before writhing and struggling.

"Alas, you do this, how can I relieve you!" Ji Ke knelt on one knee, helplessly spreading his hands, loosening the iliac muscles often encountered this situation, and he had no choice but to wait for Yan Qiang's pain to decrease slightly.

"You wait a while, let me slow down, it's really painful!" Yan Qiang explained while moving his body, "Look, my cold sweat is coming out!

"The pain is certain, do you think, the tension of adulthood has only been relieved once today, can it not hurt? This is like a poisonous snake that has slept for a winter, and the venom is the strongest!"

"Just loosen it a few more times. ”

After several intermittent times, Ji Ke could be regarded as relaxing Yan Qiang's iliopsoas muscles, and then loosening the erector spinae, activating the rotator cuff muscles, and relaxing the upper trapezius muscles in the neck, which can be regarded as reorganizing Yan Qiang's entire back muscle group from top to bottom.

"How do you feel, Brother Yan?" Watching Yan Qiang's free back and forth, Ji Ke asked with a smile.

In this hour, Ji Ke felt that his face was about to cramp with laughter, but there was no way, who let this be a job requirement! Smile service is the basic requirement of the service industry, with a straight face, who is willing.

"It's so comfortable!" Yan Qiang did a few movements that might have made him feel back pain before, "You see, when I did these movements before, I couldn't do them at all, but now I can do them easily!"

"Daughter-in-law, don't practice yet, hurry up and let Brother Ji show you how to adjust your body. ”

Yan Qiang excitedly greeted his daughter-in-law, and Su Rou explained a few words to Li Jiang, who had been with him for more than an hour, with an apologetic face, and then walked over.

"Coach Ji, our strong son also told you, can you see how it is more appropriate?"

"Sister-in-law, you're welcome. Brother Yan told me that I have also done some preparations in the past two days. Ji Ke moved his palms and wrists without leaving a trace, and after more than an hour of loosening and pressing, his palms and fingers were tired.

"First of all, we must do a posture assessment, from the feet to the head, a unified assessment, one by one analysis, to establish a complete posture assessment data. ”

In the field of rehabilitation, posture does not refer to whether the person looks good or not, but whether the person's muscle strength is balanced from foot to head!

Bones rely on muscles to maintain their position, and when the muscle strength is unbalanced, it will pull the bones and put them in the wrong position, causing a series of pains, and the direct joints between bones will show the most direct appearance due to the imbalance of muscle strength.

The main posture of the human body from bottom to top is also dominated by joints, such as foot valgus of the foot, knee valgus (inside and outside), pelvic anterior and posterior, left and right rotation, lumbar lordosis, thoracic rigidity, shoulder joint forward (round shoulder), elbow valgus and so on.

These posture problems affect people's aesthetics from the outside, and affect the normal operation of the body from the inside, bringing unnecessary pain, injuries, etc.

"Sister Su, your main problem is anterior pelvic tilt, and the others are not too big a problem. After a thorough and careful assessment, uh, in fact, it was also a very simple assessment, Ji Ke announced the final results, "But anterior pelvic tilt is quite unfavorable for pregnancy and pregnancy. Although in appearance, it can bring the illusion of buttocks. ”

"What do you say?" Su Rou looked calm, and did not specifically ask why it brought about the illusion of hip warping, nor why it was not good for pregnancy and pregnancy.

"First of all, I'll explain to you how to tilt your buttocks. ”

"Hip flexure is the appearance of the gluteus maximus muscles, which requires a considerable degree of exercise of the gluteus maximus. Not only does the buttocks look sexy, but it can also help the pregnant woman bear the weight of the fetus during pregnancy without injuring the lumbar spine!"

"But the false hips brought by the anterior pelvic tilt are different, it just lifts the back of the pelvis that should be in a horizontal position upwards, visually raises the hip line, resulting in a visual buttocks, in fact, the buttocks are still weak, although they have the same sexy appearance as the real buttocks, but the actual effect is not satisfactory. ”

"How did that anterior pelvic tilt appear?" Su Rou frowned, she didn't feel that she had any bad habits that allowed her to have a pelvic anterior tilt.

"There are many reasons for this, such as long-term poor sitting posture, which leads to weakness of the muscles that pull up the front of the pelvis and the back of the pelvis down, which causes an imbalance in the strength of the muscles that maintain pelvic stability, which in turn leads to anterior pelvic tilt. ”

Another example is that women like to wear high heels, high heels are actually walking on tiptoe, and the torso stands upright in this walking posture, driven by this walking posture, the muscle groups that maintain pelvic stability are forced to lose their balance, resulting in a forward pelvic tilt. ”

As he spoke, Ji Ke glanced at Su Rou's feet, although Su Rou was wearing sneakers now, he hadn't forgotten the pair of red patent leather high heels that Su Rou put at the door of the private training area!

"There are many adverse effects of anterior pelvic tilt on pregnancy and pregnancy, simply and directly, in fact, the following points. Ji Ke didn't stop much after glancing at it, other people's wives, why are you staring at them so dead?

"First, the position of the abdominal organs is shifted forward and downward due to the forward tilt of the pelvis, and the shape of the ovaries, uterus and other reproductive organs will be squeezed by other organs and distorted, and their function will be lost. ”

"Second, after pregnancy, the woman's pelvis itself will lean forward under the pressure of the fetus, if there is a pelvic anterior tilt, it will cause more serious pain in the lower back and back, even after childbirth, the pelvic anterior tilt cannot be recovered immediately, it is not a tumbler!"

"The recovery of the position of the pelvis must be recovered under the pull of the muscles, if the pelvis has tilted forward before pregnancy, it will cause low back pain in postpartum women, and the incidence of the disease is quite high!"
