Hi, my SI rotates causing my pelvic floor to also rotate . . . kind of like ringing a towel. This then causes my lumbar vertebrae to twist, and if I pick up something heavy, my lumbar disc bulges shooting pain down the back of my leg. I finally found a pelvic floor physical therapist. . . they are not easy to find. My Gynecologist told me about one, and my Physiatrist who did nerve root injections to calm the nerve which was pressed by the bulging disc confirmed this PT was the best. I would start with trying to find a PT specializing in pelvic floor . . Who is in private practice, not a franchise PT group. The best ones start their own practices and truly want you to get better. My rotation is caused by a bad foot surgery years ago. I can't "walk off" my right foot, thus causing a gait disturbance. One thing affects all the muscles in your back and up to shoulders. Good luck.

Pelvic therapist are rare especially for men. It’s ashamed with the help they can do for you. I finally found one at an outpatient therapy office. My Tailbone was out of alignment after my L5-S1 Fusion. Yes being misaligned throws the whole spine out then the whole body is hurting. Good luck

A pelvic therapist is hard to find. I found one and she left to start her own business and will not take insurance,only cash. There are quite in my area who have done the same thing. They charge anywhere from $100 -$300 per visit which is hard to afford out of pocket even if you can get your insurance to apply it as out of network. My gyn has referred me to another local place but the first available appt is the end of May.
