Many massage therapists encounter clients diagnosed with sacroiliac (SI) joint dysfunction, yet modern research and clinical experience challenge the validity of this diagnosis. This class debunks common misconceptions about SI joint dysfunction and provides an evidence-based approach to treating sacral and low back pain.

Students will explore the anatomy and biomechanics of the SI joint, understand why the joint itself is not the source of pain, and learn how muscle dysfunction—particularly trigger points in the quadratus lumborum and gluteal muscles—are the true culprits. Earn 1.5 NCBTMB CEs by successfully completing the quiz.

✅ Why imaging often leads therapists and clients down the wrong path
✅ How trigger points in key scapular stabilizers mimic rotator cuff pain
✅ How to assess scapular positioning and treat the true underlying cause

The syndrome informally called sciatica is poorly understood by almost everyone. Travell & Simons point out that sciatica is not a diagnosis - the term is only descriptive of a pattern of pain that may involve hip, gluteal, low back and radiating leg pain. In particular, there is no assumption of sciatic nerve involvement, or neurological origins of any kind.

You will learn the best techniques and  treatment order for the muscles related to sciatica, low back, hip and leg pain, how to work with their functionally-related muscle groups, what techniques to use, self care ideas, corrective exercise and more.

✅ The most common patterns of up regulation and engagement that the CNS employs in shoulder pain
