Desperation. Fatigue. Frustration. These are all the feelings you have when your back is pain from SIJD or other causes. Anything that makes the slightest improvement is a godsend. I was in such intense pain, even the smallest relief brought some way to make it through the next day, hour, minute.
I thought it would be helpful to show some of the things that helped me through the day and even those that still help me as prevention.
The Sacro Wedgy
This funky looking little device allows you to completely relax the entire hip/sacral area after a long day of attempting to hold everything tight yourself. I give this a thumbs up.
Vin Yoga DVD
I’ve mentioned this video before but I will mention it again. I use this about 3x a week. I feel like it definitely keeps my entire hip region strong, but it targets the sacral muscles just enough for stability without over doing it. Prevention is key!
