Does sharp pain in your pelvis make turning in bed or climbing stairs a struggle? If so, you’re not alone. Many people dealing with recurring pelvic pain find that certain movements, exercises, or everyday habits trigger their discomfort — leaving them frustrated, sore, and unsure how to stay active without making things worse. However, our experience at WholeBodyChiro is that with the right care, most people can get back to moving confidently again.
Common Signs of Sacroiliac Joint Pain
People with sacroiliac joint issues often experience:
- Sharp pain when turning over in bed or walking, making simple movements feel like a challenge.
- Difficulty climbing stairs or standing on one leg, especially on the affected side.
- A sensation of uneven leg length, leaving you feeling off-balance.
- Weakness in your core muscles, making it hard to feel stable and strong.
If these symptoms sound familiar, it’s important to understand what might be triggering your discomfort.
What Could Be Causing Your Pelvic Pain?
Pelvic and sacroiliac joint pain often develops from everyday habits and activities, such as:
- Repetitive movements, like bowling in cricket or kicking a ball in footy or soccer.
- Prolonged uneven sitting positions, such as driving with one leg stretched out to reach the pedals orsitting with crossed legs for long periods.
- Pregnancy leading to changes in pelvic alignment.
- Falling or impact trauma to the pelvis.
Over time, these loads and repetitive stresses can lead to recurring pain, stiffness, and muscle imbalances around the pelvis.
How We Can Help You Get Moving Again
At WholeBodyChiro, we understand how frustrating recurring pelvic pain can be — especially when it limits your ability to stay active or enjoy everyday life. That’s why we take a comprehensive tailored approach to help you overcome joint pain in the pelvis and build long-term resilience. Our personalised approach combines three key strategies:
1) Chiropractic Adjustments
Chiropractic adjustments are designed to:
- Improve pelvic joint alignment and movement control, so you can stop the recurring damage and start healing.
2) Targeted Exercises
To support your recovery, we may recommend:
- Core strengthening exercises to improve stability, helping you move safely with confidence.
- Glute, piriformis and adductor stretches to reduce uneven tension and improve muscle balance around the pelvis.
3) Lifestyle Adjustments
Lifestyle habits play a major role in managing pelvic pain. Small adjustments can make a big difference in reducing discomfort and preventing flare-ups. Helpful strategies include:
- Sleeping with a pillow between your knees to support pelvic alignment.
- Reclining in your chair with good back support and avoid sitting with twisted knees or crossed legs.
- Using cruise control while driving to minimise prolonged uneven leg positions.
With these strategies, you can start moving more freely, comfortably, and confidently again.
