Study Notes
Sacroiliac Joint Motions
- L-sacroiliac extension: counter-rotation of the L-sacral base around the right oblique axis (ROA) as the left ilium flexes or glides anteriorly
- If less motion/hard end-feel is found when motioning/springing the right sacral apex around the ROA, listings could be CRRROA or L-SB-A(I)
- If less motion/hard end-feel is found when motioning the left ilium anteriorly, listings could be AGR L-Ilium or L-PI-Ilium
L-Sacroiliac Flexion
- Rotation of the left sacral base around the ROA as the ilium extends
- If less motion/hard end-feel is found when motioning/springing the left sacral base around the ROA, listings could be RRROA or L-SB-P(S)
- If less motion/hard end-feel is found when motioning the left ilium posteriorly, listings could be PGR L-Ilium or L-AS-Ilium
