As to whether SIJ form closure can be obtained by Chiropractic: yes, & effective for those who sublux only occasionally. For those with hypermobility & constant subluxation & pain, relocation of joint seems temporary as joint ligaments are too loose & Prolotherapy might work...
The secret with #Prolotherapy is that the injured ligament must be diagnosed if the therapy is to be effective. I have written my tweets so that other doctors might teach themselves the principles of pelvic girdle ligament diagnosis, a method I invented...
I am completing a website where HIPPA compliant visits can be performed & wherein I can diagnose (only CA & HI) pelvic girdle disorder and the ligaments likely causal of chronic pelvic girdle and low back pain. If interested DM me at twitter or laurencebadgley@gmail.com.
As to Physiotherapy: I have found this to be too painful for persons with the problem. They need to start with Aquatherapy form of Physical Therapy.

these symptoms are due to intermittent impingement of neural branches within the brachial neural plexus, between the collar bone and the first rib. Women with FM often have tightness of this “Thoracic Outlet” d/t hyper flexible ligaments around the shoulder girdles.
THORACIC OUTLET IMPINGEMENT CORRECTION: Avoid surgeons. Physical therapists have ideas. Build muscles of military posture. Wear small backpack backwards by hang on chest. Fill pack with ~15-20% body wt. (bag sugar/rice). Wear when shopping, walking, working in yard.
THORACIC OUTLET IMPINGEMENT CORRECTION: the idea is to use gravity magnification imposed on muscles that lift shoulder bones up-back & thereby reduce slouching, even when pack is disused.
This is Dr. Krause, Neurosurgeon, of an El Salvador healing center he set up contemporaneously. Dr. Delgado, Neurosurgeon he mentions, was one of my Professors at Yale Medical School in 1966 & famous then for implanting radio frequency controlled electrode in a bull’s brain.
MIND CONTROL WITH EMF & LIGHT: Dr. Delgado, or surrogate, got into bull ring. As bull charged for the kill a flick of a switch stopped him in his tracks. ‘‘Twas a powerful demonstration. Dr. Delgado was an handsome Surgeon & the coeds, my own same-time fancy, swooned.
IBS IN VETERANS: As a medical doctor I have clinically studied this disorder. My clinical impressions are as follows:
My prediction is that this disorder will be found in more female veterans than males. My Threadreader to follows explains why …
VETERANS WITH IBS, PREFACE TO THIS THREAD: Over >2 decades, I have studied pathophysiology/etiology of IBS. Amongst my >300 threadreaders on Twitter/X, I have discussed IBS issues.
VETERANS WITH IBS, MY AUTHORITY: Since 2007, I have published clinical data internationally in “Proceedings of Interdisciplinary World Congress on Low Back & Pelvic Pain”, which Congress meets every three years.
HYPERMOBILITY SYNDROME (~15% women) predisposes ▶️ Dysmenorrhea due to Relaxin hormone each menses ▶️ Abdominal Endoscopy whereby 100% women ▶️ intestinal adhesion from #2-3 Scopes ▶️ IBS symptoms of partial obstruction = “Endometriosis” …
After several endoscopic procedures iatrogenic-caused bowel adhesions induce dysfunctional bowel manifest as IBS. Now the time for widespread ablation of peritoneal tissue. I am curious about the long term effects of this mutilating procedure.
FIBROMYALGIA SLEEP SOLUTION? Very simply, the solution is increased REM sleep. FM sufferers are surface sleepers aroused, by musculoskeletal pain, from deeper levels of sleep. Ask them if they regularly dream, and most admit they don’t.
FIBROMYALGIA & SLEEP: A sine qua non of Fibromyalgia (FM) is chronic low back pain. Commonly, etiology of FM low back pain is unilateral sacroiliac (SIJ) dysfunction/subluxation, whereat integrity of the SIJ capsule has been compromised.
DAMAGED LIGAMENTS HURT, as the Spanish Inquisition’s use of “The Rack” taught us. Each sacroiliac is 17 cm sq., largest joint in axial spine, & has a large ligament capsule. Torsion of this capsule occurs at night …
DYSAUTONOMIAS: etiologic via major joint subluxations (shoulder/pelvic girdles) proximate autonomic tracts/plexi become impinged, due to titled upright body tower, due to ⏬️ musculoskeletal tone, due to prolonged (>2 wks) bedrest, due to significant viral illness. GRAVITY RULES
FIBROMYALGIA BEGETS ITSELF: Once chronic widespread muscle spasms begin, chronic pain & restless sleep induce sedentary life, reclusiveness, daytime fatigue and depression. These changes lead to inadequate sunlight, low Vit D, weaker spastic muscles, & greater sedentariness.
FIBROMYALGIA BEGETS ITSELF: weak spastic muscles in persons with Hypermobility Syndrome (~15% of women) induce joint subluxations. These subluxations impinge the Autonomic Nervous System plexi at shoulder & pelvic girdle joints….
