Get some immediate SI joint pain relief with this quick, easy exercise you can do anywhere, anytime, without any equipment (or looking silly.)
SI (sacroiliac) joint pain tends to feel like a stiffness, dull ache, or burning sensation in the top half of your glutes. The exercise Coach E demonstrates, with the help of his good friend Stan, will help release the pain or discomfort in a matter of a few minutes.
Even if you feel perfectly healthy, practicing this simple exercise will keep your hips in better condition, particularly if you sit at a desk all day.
Secondly, it’s a fantastic way to build kinesthetic awareness. Practicing that mind-body connection will help if you ever do develop some discomfort from wear and tear damage. You’ll have the awareness to feel what happens in your body and perform the corrective exercises properly.
Remember, the big tips. Keep your pelvis closed. Release the muscle activation slowly and under control.
Perform the exercise for SI joint pain relief multiple times a day to keep control of any discomfort. Do it in the morning, before and after any activity, every hour at your desk, right before bed, waiting for a table at your favorite restaurant, or while doing the dishes.
