Being a chiropractor, and having fallen off plenty
of horses, been stepped on my left sacrum twice, I understand everyone's
comments.
The bad news, if you are hurt badly enough, you
never get back to where you were.
The good news, if you get chiropractic
adjustments/check ups as soon as an injury occurs, follow up with massage
therapy, and my favorite now, is Structural Integration or Rolfing. No,
this isn't what happens when you get sick!
Recently I completed the ten sessions of Structual
Integration for myself. This work balances, and unlocks, the fascia of the
body, allowing us to work with gravity with less effort. Because the adhesions
from all our traumas are release, the bones (when adjusted) tend to stay in
place better. There is more freedom. My legs hang better when I
ride. I have better balance. Therefore, I have more confidence in my
ability to respond when my horse does something silly.
If interested in more info, write to GSI, PO Box
1559, Boulder CO. 80306. I haven't looked the Guild for Structural
Integration up on the web. Don't know if they have a website.
Best of luck to all with sacral pain! It can
be beat!
