Hello friends!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Pelvic pain can affect your ability to walk, sleep, move, lift, carry, sit, pee, poop, have sex and more!!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This simple self check can clue you into whether you have pelvic asymmetries. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What is an asymmetry? Your pelvis is like two halves an Easter egg that is fitted together. If the two sides aren’t lined up, you will have asymmetries (one pelvic bone higher or lower, flared in or out etc)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Keep in mind that it’s possible to have asymmetries without pain and it’s possible to have pain without asymmetries!!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, what to do if you do have asymmetries? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Get checked out! The following professionals are trained to assess and address this:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Physical Therapists ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Chiropractors⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Doctors of Osteopathy⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Orthopedists⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And more! (If you’re a provider that assesses and addresses this that I didn’t include, drop a comment below please so others know too!). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Pregnant people are especially vulnerable to asymmetries due to the increased pelvic movement that is occurring. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Many times some simple exercises or some gentle hands on stretching combined with an external brace can provide incredible relief so you can live your daily life! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Questions? I’m here friends! ♥️Jeanice ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Not sure I have every heard of running with donkeys. But if you do, don't get hurt!

It turns out that it is not much different than running with a stubborn dog, only they’re a lot bigger and can break your leg.
