Dr. John Keating: Sacroiliac Joint Pain And How To Fix It!

This surgeon fails to advize chiropractic care before submitting to this irrevesible procedure. CHIROPRACTIC!!!

The problem is many patients get worse with SI joint fusions. A better solution is a stabilization solution injected into a patient’s SI joint’s. I have a 90% success rate doing this for my patients assuming they have no prior surgeries. This is a permanent solution that still allow slight movement of a patient’s SI joint. Do not have a fusion!

Has anyone had this surgery by Dr, Keating? And have the screws stayed in place or have they loosened within a couple of years?? I considering having it done. I’ve been through the injections and physical therapy. It helped for a little while. I just want my life back and to be able to get back to work.

After surgery you will wsddle like a duck. CHIROPRACTIC!!!

The SI joint can become misaligned and my physical therapist corrected it.I had a auto accident that a car pulled out in front of me on a highway and I pushed on the brake so hard it jammed my SI joint out of place.My SI joint tends to go out of place several times and when just stepping over a curb.When I researched auto accidents and SI joint injury I found out this was common in this situation.PT,good shoes, stretching, and anti flammatories help me the most.

Before doing surgery, please let me try! See my videos ProPTRehab. When you strengthen the multifidi with the ATM2, you might find some of that instability disappear. Also, I evaluated using the McKenzie eval & you can r/o the L/S 1st.

For anyone suffering from lower back pain caused by the SI joint, try alot of massage therapy, chiropractic work, and lots and lots and lots of stretching to fix postural issues and overly tight muscles before you look into surgery. i was suffering for 5 months as a result of a weight lifting injury and am just now finding the right combination of self administered massage, self-adjustment, and stretching to achieve normalacy again. theres always hope!

SI Joint Surgery: over 85% of people who have it end up in MORE pain than before.Just due to TIME alone the fusion will fail. The SI Joint needs to move. EVEN if it’s a tiny amount. I mean Milimeters.The good SI joint will eventually fail over time due to the odd movement caused by the Fused side.And, only 3 to maybe 5 places in the US do this. NO medical Dr will treat someone for this only to prevent infection.Be an INFORMED patient.Do look into this, but all of it.

I am so glad to see that there is a community out here and videos on this. I have had arthritis since I was 15, Im in my 30’s now. I also have a ruptured L4/L5. Ive tried SI injections via floroscopic (the arthrogram he referred to at 3:09) guide and epidurals in the L4/L5 region. The latter of the two seemed to give me the most relief. I got it in May, it seems to have worn off. Of all the joints impacted by my arthritis the SI joint is by FAR the worse!! Thanks for posting!
