How can the pelvis contribute to pain and dysfunction? Is the SIJ the main pain producer around the pelvis, or what is? What is the state of current research around the pelvis? Is it possible to feel "unlocking" of the SIJ? Do Pelvic Upslips exist?

In episode 18 of the Physio Edge podcast Diane Lee of Diane Lee & Associates and David Pope discuss the pelvis and SIJ in detail, including:

palpation around the pelvis
how can you palpate for unlocking of the SIJ
what role the pelvis has in low back pain
how the pelvis can be affected by other areas of the body
does the current research support unlocking of the pelvis
how can the thorax affect the pelvis
when should you perform deep abdominal or multifidus training

And then we dive into Paediatric musculoskeletal development, including

footwear for kids
sporting activities for kids
should kids sit in chairs or on the floor
is a simple ankle sprain all that simple
advice for parents
children's furniture and lots of other great info that will help you when treating or bringing up kids
