Proper Hip Alignment and Pain Reduction • The hip and pelvic area is one of the more complicated parts of the body; • There is a total of ten different muscle parts that attach to the Anterior Superior Iliac Spine (ASIS); • From those ten different muscle parts, there are seven different directions of pull; • When we align the ASIS in the exact proper position, the pelvis is in a neutral position and all tissue around it becomes relaxed; • This relaxation extends throughout the entire body, since the pelvis is the transmission of all forces from the lower to the upper body, and vice versa; • The old style of balancing the pelvis is a complicated venture; • It involves picking one of those ten muscle parts and massaging, stretching or strengthening it, then another and another; • In theory, it seems this would be possible to accomplish, although time consuming; • But by the time one muscle is finished, the other muscles have already started to compensate to bring the ASIS to another position - the process becomes futile; • Clinical research has proved that it is much more effective to exercise the ASIS into position; • By strengthening three muscle groups only, the ASIS can be returned to its proper position; • These muscles directly control the position of the pelvis and once strengthened, the ASIS will remain in the neutral position, thereby allowing the entire body to decompensate and de-facilitate.
