Superb explanation and when dealing with body mechanics must be fully understood to be able to achieve any hope of helping a patient who has modified their gait by simple compensation that gradually, but dramatically, alters everything else over time. Anyone studying the ‘fascial trains’ beautifully explained by Tom Myers would also very much appreciate your explanation here and once fully absorbed, there’s no end to picturing how the whole body is affected by any movement at all.
Very much thanks to you Mr.Gibbons, I'm PT and have hard time to understand biomechanics on pelvis, sacrum and lumbal movements while on walking and this is be like cure to me for understanding mechanism
Great video I’ve watched numerous times. They compensated pattern was interesting. Would love to see a video on the gait cycle compensated and be that leads to facet locking. For example, I’d stuck in a left on left, what happens up the chain to compensate. Thanks!
Thank You for everything! Can you do youtube live someday so that we can clarify some of our doubts! So say I am performing a Gillet's/Stork Test. I ask the patient to raise the right Leg up. Now as per what I understood the Innominate on the right side should rotate posteriorly ( so the thumb on PSIS moves down ), the sacrum (nutates) rotates left-on-left, the Lumbar vertebrae rotate right to compensate Sacrum's Left rotation, along with it there is side bending of vertebrae to Left as per Type 1 mechanism. Kindly correct me if I am wrong.
With the stork test - I wouldn't worry about the sacrum for this test as you are looking for motion of the innominate to travel medially and inferiorly, regards JG
So are you also teaching More Information in your paid classes about how to tell and predict which part of the roatations are out of Order and how to fix them? Iam doing a tranieeship as an physiotherapyst in Germany and iam interested in doing your masterclass!
@@ahmedessam6533 in Germany we generally have tranieeships for different Jobs. Its more focused on the practial part in difference to university and you also get paid.
Thanks for the message and yes I lecture all the types of dysfunctions and how to solve them, my online courses covers a lot of assessments and treatments, regards JG
Wow Great video John. Is it therefore possible to perform a strength training movement in these sling patterns to help maintain gait & running mechanics?
I feel I have a good understanding of how the pelvis works but your description is confusing and sounds incorrectly so I'm assuming I misunderstood. Is there a way to discuss?
Hello Mr Gibbons. I’m a right handed male who starts to walk with his right foot first because I usually turn to the left or go straight. My right leg is my back leg, I get a lot of shoulder, back and sometimes knee pain when I walk for a long time. I’m trying to learn how to swing my arms from the beginning and alternatives for arm swing when I’m tired and still have to walk. Thanks
Check out Neal Hallinan’s vids on PRItrainer. I was stuck in the left anterior interior chain (left AIC) pattern…left quads were doing the work of my left hamstring when I walked. Very very common problem. The underlying theory for overcoming the issue is from Ron Hruska’s work. Françoise Mézières before that. Good luck.
Hi. Can you explain please. Im new to this and hope its not a stupid question. During heel strike what happens to the lower lumbar spine with regards to flexion/extension. You talk about how the sacrum relatively moves into nutation (which can cause lumbar extension) whilst the innominate moves posteriorly (which can cause lumbar flexion), does this action of the innominate/sacrum therefore help to keep the lower lumbar spine in neutral, so we can keep standing upright?
Ideally a neutral (according from Fryette) position of the vertebral column is the fundamental basis of motion for everything as it follows the type 1 motion - almost like cogs in a wheel - cog one will rotate right, which drives cog two to rotate left and cog three to rotate the same way as cog one (right) and this is automatic (in one respect) - so the sacrum rotating right induces left rotation of the lumbar and right rotation of the thoracic - hope that helps, regards jG
Hi John … For 12 years I have my left leg rotation outwardly about 25%…. What muscles the massage therapist and PT. should manipulate starting from T12 down to the ankle to straighten the leg? And same years my right shoulder is higher than left……Names of the muscles that are pulling out and creating dysfunction? We all love John..
