Today, I think the PT doctor was accurate in pointing out that my problem stems from weak core muscles, back and abs. My pelvic frame is loose from years of gynnamstics and yoga and consequently, long 22 mile runs have caused serious damage, which over years of pain, has had a ripple effect on the ligaments within my pelvic girdle. ....
After having to put away my running shoes, I sought medical attention, got an MRI for my back and was prescribed PT. I saw a chiropractor as well, but nothing seemed to help and the MRI was not conclusive in dealing with my daily pain..
The accupressure, accupuncture with electrical impulse was great in minimizing pain but it didn't solve the problem..
