Sacroiliac Joint

The sacroiliac joint is where the sacrum (the triangular bone at the base of your spine) connects to the iliac bones of your pelvis. It acts as a link between your spine and hips, helping absorb shock and support movements like walking and lifting. Despite its small size, it's a stable joint that allows limited motion but plays a crucial role in transferring weight efficiently. Sometimes, it can become inflamed or dysfunctional, leading to lower back or buttock pain. Proper functioning of this joint is essential for balance, mobility, and overall pelvic stability.
