At Revelation Health Bartlett Chiropractic in Santa Rosa, Dr. Bartlett helps patients find lasting relief from hip and SI joint discomfort by tackling the cause and working with you to get your desired results
Understanding Hip and SI Joint Pain
Your hips and sacroiliac joints play a crucial role in supporting your spine and distributing weight evenly through your body. When these joints become misaligned or restricted, they can cause pain, inflammation, and stiffness.
Common causes include:
- Uneven posture or gait
- Sitting for long hours
- Previous injuries or falls
- Pregnancy or hormonal changes
- Muscle imbalances in the lower back and pelvis
Because the hip and SI joints are so interconnected, pain in one area often affects the other and that’s where chiropractic care shines.
Chiropractic Assessment and Diagnosis
Dr. Bartlett begins with a thorough evaluation of your spine, pelvis, and hip movement. Using posture analysis, range-of-motion testing, and orthopedic assessments, he identifies where the misalignments or joint restrictions are coming from. If needed, digital X-rays are performed on site to confirm the diagnosis and guide precise care.
Gentle Chiropractic Adjustments
Once the cause is identified, Dr. Bartlett uses gentle, precise chiropractic adjustments to restore proper alignment and movement.
- For sacroiliac dysfunction: targeted adjustments help realign the pelvis and reduce inflammation around the joint.
- For hip joint pain: adjustments relieve pressure and improve balance in how the hip moves within its socket.
Soft Tissue and Muscle Work
Muscle tension around the hips and lower back can worsen joint pain. Dr. Bartlett uses soft tissue therapies, stretching, and myofascial techniques to release tight muscles like the glutes, piriformis, and hip flexors. This combination of joint and muscle care helps restore balance and stability to the entire pelvic region.
Corrective Exercises and Home Care
To support lasting results, Dr. Bartlett provides tailored exercises based on your condition to strengthen your core, glutes, and pelvic stabilizers. These movements keep the joints aligned and prevent the pain from returning. You’ll also receive tips for posture, sitting, and daily movement habits to protect your hips and back long-term.
