A clinical evaluation of hip joint functional ability after sacroiliac joint manipulation in patients with sacroiliac joint syndrome

Turner, Bruce (2005)

The differential diagnosis of back and leg pain should include sacroiliac joint disease as the prevalence of sacroiliac joint pain appears to range from 13%-30%, thus making the sacroiliac joint a significant source of ...
The effectiveness of sacroiliac manipulation alone versus sacroiliac manipulation following ischaemic compression of gluteus medius trigger points in the treatment of sacroiliac syndrome

Thompson, Neil (2002)

In recent years, sacroiliac syndrome has been widely accepted by many different health professions as one of the major contributors to mechanical low back pain. Manipulation to effect the relief of the condition has thus ...
The effect of a sacroiliac joint manipulation on hip rotation ranges of motion in patients suffering with chronic sacroiliac syndrome

Bisset, Gregory (2003)

Mechanical low back pain is one of the most common clinical disorders that most people seek help for (Painting et al. 1998:110). Epidemiological studies indicate a lifetime prevalence of low back pain ranging from 60 to ...
The effect of three manipulative treatment protocols on quadriceps muscle strength in patients with Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome

Hillermann, Bernd (2003)

Knee joint pathologies, in general, are associated with a loss of knee-extensor muscle strength. This weakness has been attributed to arthrogenic muscle inhibition (AMI). Manipulation of the sacroiliac (SI) has been shown ...
The effects of sacroiliac manipulation on arthrogenic muscle inhibition in the hip musculature in patients with sacroiliac syndrome

Morgan, Beverley (2005)

In symptomatic sacroiliac syndrome, nociceptors located within the capsule and ligaments of the sacroiliac joint are said to be activated which in turn act on inhibitory interneurons that synapse with the motor neuron pool ...
The efficacy of a single maintained contact drop piece manipulation technique in the treatment of sacroiliac syndrome

Botha, Quentin Martin (2005)

Research indicates the sacroiliac joint (prevalence of sacroiliac syndrome ranges from 19.3% and 47.9% (Toussaint et al., 1999)) as being the primary source of low-back pain in 22.5% of patients with back pain (Bernard et ...
The efficacy of a toggle recoil drop piece adjustment technique in the treatment of sacroiliac dysfunction

Jacobs, Ronel C. (2005)

One of the most common clinical disorders known is mechanical low back pain (Painting et al. 1998:110). A significant source of low back pain is the sacroiliac joint and therefore, according to Schwarzer et al. (1995:31), ...
The immediate effect of sacroiliac manipulation on hip strength in patients suffering from chronic sacroiliac syndrome

Matkovich, Grant (2004)

The aim of this investigation was to investigate whether an immediate objective increase in hip strength was observed after an ipsilateral sacroiliac manipulation in patients suffering from chronic sacroiliac syndrome. The ...
The relative effectiveness of manual manipulation versus manipulation using the activator adjusting instrument in the management of acute on chronic sacroiliac syndrome

Shearar, Kirstin Anne (2003)

Low back pain is a significant health problem that has had a major impact on quality of life and on health care costs (Weiner, et al. 2000:450). Schwarzer, et al. (1995) established the sacroiliac joint to be a significant ...
The relative effectiveness of spinal manipulative therapy combined with transcutaneous flurbiprofen versus spinal manipulative therapy combined with either menthol or non-medicated placebo patches in the management of sacroiliac syndrome

Moodley, Lineshnee (2002)

McGregor et al ( 1998) stated that approximately 50 – 80 % of the population in Western society will experience low back pain at some point. According to Cibulka and Koldehoff (1999), the sacroiliac joint is a common cause ...
To determine the immediate effect of sacroiliac and lumbar manipulation on quadriceps femoris and hamstring torque ratios in the contralateral limb in patients suffering from mechanical low back pain

Lewis, Barbara Jane (2005)

Low back pain has been shown to be associated with inhibition of the lower limb musculature. This inhibition is called arthrogenic muscle inhibition (AMI). Sacroiliac joint dysfunction has been linked with AMI of the ...
