✨SI Joint Alignment, Part 2: Upslips ✨

An upslip occurs when the hip bone moves straight upwards, relative to the sacrum. (This is also known as an upward shear). ⬆

Upslips can sometimes happen when the muscle that attaches to the top of the hip bone — the quadratus lumborum— goes into spasm.

Sometimes, if you’re lucky, you can correct an upslip simply by releasing that muscle! ✨
