This month we will be focusing on rotation, specifically how this movement involves the innominate bones and the sacrum. I frequently find that, when demonstrating rotation, students often think of the pelvic structure as a block that rotates as a unit. However, the pelvis is quite dynamic and there can be much movement between the two innominate bones which allows sacral rotation to occur. This is seen also with walking or running. The back leg in gait pulls the innominate bone on that side into an anterior tilt, while the forward leg pulls the other innominate bone into a posterior tilt. The entire pelvis is 'twisted' or moves into torsion.
