DID YOU KNOW......

Complementary and alternative medicines (CAM) are unconventional types of products and practices that are being used to treat a variety of medical and mental health conditions. Some common CAM practices include acupuncture, yoga, aromatherapy, and progressive muscle relaxation.

Massage therapy is another type of CAM practice that is often used to treat muscle pain, injury, and stiffness. Massage therapy has more recently been used for the treatment of mental and emotional problems, including stress, anxiety, and depression. Also considered a relaxation technique, massage therapy may be able to help reduce tension and elicit feelings of calm and deep relaxation.

// How to tell if you have an Anterior pelvic tilt?

Instructions:

Stand up.

Locate the landmarks:

Pointy bone at the front (ASIS) and

Pointy bone at the back (PSIS).

Compare the relative heights.

Interpretation: If you have an Anterior pelvic tilt, the ASIS will be significantly lower in comparison to the PSIS.
Note: It is normal for the pelvis to have a slight forward tilt (5-10 degrees). This is what I refer to as a “neutral pelvis”. (see above)
Note #2: Everyone has different shaped and sized “pointy bones”. This is just a general guideline to quickly determine if you have an Anterior pelvic tilt or not.

// What causes an Anterior pelvic tilt?

You are either sitting too much or sitting incorrectly.
Not that I am spying on you right now, but chances are that you are doing both of them right now!
Excessive sitting causes the muscles that control the position of the pelvis to get tight, overactive, weak and/or inhibited.
As a result, there is an imbalance of pull around the pelvis region causing a net force to forward tilt (Anterior pelvic tilt).

Target muscles for Anterior pelvic tilt

Tight/overactive:

Iliopsoas

Tensor fascia latae

Re**us femoris (Quadriceps)

Lower back erectors

Longissimus, iliocostalis

Quadratus lumborum

Thoracolumbar fascia

Latissimus dorsi

Anterior fibres of the adductors

Weak/inhibited:

Gluteal group

Hamstring

Abdominals

Part 1
What is an Anterior pelvic tilt?

This is where the pelvis is in a forward tilt position.
(It somewhat resembles the pelvic position of my favorite childhood Disney character, Donald duck.)

// Characteristics

Forward tilt of the pelvis

Pronounced lower back arch

Glutes (your bottom) that stick out

Protruding stomach

Why is it a problem?

As the pelvis is the foundation of your spine, it is common for an Anterior pelvic tilt to drastically affect your whole posture.
If your pelvis is in the wrong position, your whole posture will be out of position as well. (… This is a big problem!)
It could be the one reason why you have so much pain and tightness in your body
