@dr.maehughes: Go to my IG (@Drmaehughes) and comment MOVE and I’ll send you a free follow-along workout to help relieve your SI joint pain during pregnancy! A brand new, four level, SI Joint relief series is now LIVE in the Movement Through Pregnancy program! Not sure if you need this series? Here are some signs your SI joint needs some extra TLC: -deep, achy pain on one side of your lower back where your pelvis meets your spine -sharp pain in your lower back or butt when rolling over in bed, getting out of the car or standing up from a chair -feeling like something is “out of place” or even painful while walking -pain when standing on one leg to put on your pants or shoes -discomfort with walking or climbing stairs Sound like you? The good news is movement can help your SI joint pain, BUT you need to know exactly what type of movement to start with to avoid irritating your SI joint even more. SI joint pain in pregnancy usually isn't coming from just one spot. Your ribs, glutes, pelvic floor, hips, and hamstrings all play a role in how your pelvis moves, so stretching the sore side alone often isn't enough. That's exactly why I created this four-level series. We start with gentle mobility and muscle activation to help calm down irritated tissues, then progressively build strength and stability through your pelvis and hips. Each level builds on the last, and you'll only progress when you can perform your current exercises without increasing your symptoms. The goal isn't just to temporarily relieve your pain. It's to help you build the strength and confidence to keep moving throughout your pregnancy without pain! Save this for the next time your SI joint flares up, and send it to a pregnant friend who needs it 🤍 #pelvicfloorpt #sijointpain #pregnancypain #prenatalfitness #pregnancyworkout
