Do you ever wonder if you dance too much that you could have issues with your pelvis? The bad news is that it can, but it mostly like won’t happen to an average person who just enjoys dancing on a Saturday night. However, there are many other conditions and injuries that can happen in this region causing pain and discomfort.
The sacroiliac joints in the pelvic region can be come inflamed from trauma or injury. These can occur in from an automobile accident or falling off something like a roof or tall ladder. In women, pregnancy cause also cause pelvic issues.
Our goals at Easthill Physiotherapy & Acupuncture are focused on getting our patients back to dance, or other physical activities they enjoy in life.
Here are some of the more common conditions and injuries our physiotherapists treat.
Pain in the lower back, buttocks, hips, and thighs. Difficulty climbing stairs or doing activities involving running.
Though not as common as other pelvic and sacroiliac (SI) joint conditions, this is a type of arthritis that will start in your lower back an inflammatory condition is most likely hereditary. There is no known cure today. However, by working with a physiotherapist to identify a recommended regimen of exercises will help in pain reduction.
Wear and tear caused by repetitive injuries can impact the sacroiliac (SI). Physiotherapy can identify various exercises for stretching and improving range of motion.
Some pregnancies cause hypermobility of the sacroiliac joint due to stretching of the ligaments and abnormal weight and stress on these joints. A physiotherapist can help identify an exercise plan during and after pregnancy to help reduce pain and return mothers back to their normal activities
Trauma and injury can cause inflammation of the sacroiliac (SI) and result in a sprain or strain of the ligaments and capsule of the joint.

Easthill Physiotherapy + Acupuncture Clinic has protocols to ensure the utmost safety for our patients, team and community. We have worked hard to protect our public health during this pandemic. Medical masks are mandatory for all staff and patients to keep everyone safe, and we appreciate your commitment.
We continue to follow the guidelines and protective measures indicated by our regulatory boards and governments. Our team has also had extensive training on our new protocols, and we are all 100% committed to ensuring our patients’ safety.
This is the new normal.
All patients and staff will be screened before each visit. Unfortunately, anyone showing signs of respiratory infection will be unable to come into the clinic. We will encourage and book virtual physiotherapy appointments for those that need help but are symptomatic if a client is at greater risk or for anyone who is not comfortable coming into the clinic.
We have the highest standards for hand hygiene and cleaning. All equipment and rooms will be disinfected after each use, frequently touched surfaces will be sterilized, and personal protective equipment will be used in all appropriate situations. Patients and staff will have hand washing stations to ensure proper frequent hand hygiene.
We also understand that it is necessary to reduce the risk of transmission with physical distancing. To do this, we have installed plexiglass barriers, reduced the number of appointments available by spreading them out and designed an optimal patient flow that minimizes contact with other patients and staff before and after appointments. Our team is also committed to practicing these as measures of hand hygiene and physical distancing outside the clinic to be safe when they return to work.
Although it may seem different with the steps we need to take, the Easthill Physiotherapy + Acupuncture team is still the same! We still believe in the same values and are here to provide an extraordinary physiotherapy experience. This is not going to change. Our goal is to keep all of us healthy and happy.
Our fabulous admin team is available to book in-clinic appointments now. Or if you prefer a virtual physiotherapy visit, we can book that too. Please call us at 250-545-2922 to book an appointment or if you would like more information.
