@OMM-Support Thoughts?
Can anyone provide context for this concept?
I have seen this card multiple times but have no idea how this makes sense mechanisms wise or how it would present clinically? From what I am guessing, it would be a compensatory pattern where if your torso is sidebent one way, the opposite leg would have to lift up to bring you back to neutral.
It would help build this card up w/ a bit more direction if we say something like "Right Psoas dysfunction ā L Pelvic Side shift ā L Piriformis Dysfunction
Iām fairly confident this has to do with the lumbar attachments of Psoas and sacral attachment of Piriformis. pretty sure this relationship plays, at least part of, a role in the āL5ā rule.
so Psoas is rotating lumbar one way piriformis is compensating and pulling sacrum in the opposite direction attempting to retain balance (like you are suggesting)
Contralateral {{piriformis}} spasm
could be a be a better way to word it
In extra section, could put - may lead to sx of piriformis syndrome as well (pain radiating down posterior thigh)
