Have you ever felt like your pelvis & hips aren't quite as balanced as they should be? Or that your legs aren't quite the same length? 🧐
Pelvic imbalance and dysfunction is an extremely common presentation that we see in practice.
Repetitive stressors, postural changes, and historical injuries can all contribute in creating dysfunction within the pelvic girdle, and that can lead to various compensations throughout the body! 👇
💥 Spinal Misalignment
🦵 Uneven Leg length
🏃‍♀️ Altered Gait
💪 Muscle Imbalances
🦶 Knee & Foot Issues
🤸 Restricted Range of Motion

At The Chiro, our detailed assessment of the pelvis includes range of motion and postural testing, muscle strength assessment and spinal analysis. We also utilise X-ray to get accurate measurements to determine the extent of the imbalance.

So if you've been looking for improvement in your Samba, get in touch with us! We would love to help 💃🕺.
