Abstract
-
A rubber pelvic belt and an exercise ball are useful items to improve SIJ disorder.
-
Points for preventing SIJ disorder include not working in the same posture for a long time and active walking. Do not be relaxed while in semi-flexion posture or during activity.
-
The transversus abdominis muscle and gluteus maximus muscle are important in stabilizing the SIJ.
-
The draw-in exercise and the bridge exercise are effective in training the transversus abdominis and the gluteus maximus.
-
Squatting exercise is effective for maintaining the function of the SIJ.
