3 SI Joint Stretches For Proper Sacroiliac Motion

Summary by Krater

Eric Wong demonstrates three stretches to improve sacroiliac (SI) joint motion and stability, including supine SI joint cycling mobilization, hinged alternating knee flexion/extension, and asymmetric hinged knee flexion/extension.

Answers: What are some stretches to improve sacroiliac joint motion?

• Sacroiliac joint motion
• SI joint stretches
• Lower back pain relief
• Hip mobility
• Active stretching techniques

Exercises

• Supine SI Joint Cycling Mobilization · bodyweight · 10 reps per leg
• Hinged Alternating Knee Flexion/Extension · bodyweight · 1-2 sets, 6 reps per side
• Asymmetric Hinged Knee Flexion/Extension · bodyweight · 1-2 sets, 6 reps per side

What it concludes

• Keeping muscles active during SI joint stretches builds stability and prevents the joint from tightening up.
• Supine SI joint cycling mobilization is a gentle technique to start moving the SI joint.
• Hinged alternating knee flexion and extension mimics asymmetric joint rotation seen during walking.
