Colorado spine specialist Dr. Donald Corenman lectures mainly to physicians and therapists on sacroiliac joint dysfunction and the different chiropractic treatment techniques. For the laymen, please visit Dr. Corenman's website (https://neckandback.com/) to learn more about these clinical terms.

Dr. Corenman begins by discussing the anatomy of the SI joint. Sacroiliac joint dysfunction can be very complex in nature. The sacroiliac joint combines two different types of union of bone one is a diarthrodial joint and the other is a fibrous joint. The sacroiliac joint is stabilized by the symphysis pubis, which limits joint motion. The sacroiliac joint is the most heavily ligamented joint in the body.

As the sacroiliac joint ages it begins to stiffen. As the joint loosens it can create wear on the cartilage. Pregnancy can also loosen the SI joint. Longer lumbar fusions increase level arm stress on the SI joint and hip disorders can also increase stress.

The relative rotation of the of the sacroiliac joint can have an "up slip" (posterior rotation) and a "down slip" (anterior rotation). If one side goes up and the other goes down this is known as "sacral torsion".

There are very few muscles that cross the SI joint and the muscle vector forces are poor to control unstable SI joint or correct abnormal biomechanics. It is very difficult to strengthen muscles in that area to stabilizes the sacroiliac joint.

Dr. Corenman gives an overview of the history of the different chiropractic treatment techniques for the sacroiliac joint. Level 1 involves an active range of motion. Level 2 is mobilization this is where a chiropractor can move the joint beyond an active range. Level 3 is manipulation, which bring the joint beyond its passive range of motion and opens the joint up in an adjustment or manipulation. What an adjustment is a release of the suction of the joint as you break the suction you release a gas into the joint, which creates the "pop" of the joint.

There are different chiropractic treatment techniques for sacroiliac joint pain treatment. There is the diversified adjustment, drop table, flexion-distraction, saro-occipital technique, active release, activator and mobilization. Dr. Corenman discusses each technique in detail.
