/1633647536.26613The underlying cause of your pain could be a tight and unrecognized muscle in your hip.Do you have pain in your back, tailbone, pelvis, hip, knee, or foot that won't go away, no matter what you try? All of these issues can result from tightness in the iliacus and psoas, commonly called the "hip flexor" which can cause not just hip pain, but pain all over the body.
Most people don't even know they have an iliacus, but this tight muscle can cause lower back pain while sitting, hip pain with driving & can even make you prone to hip osteoarthritis. The truth is that almost everyone has hip flexor tightness and this tension twists the core of the body.
As a result of too much sitting, driving, running, biking, kicking, heavy lifting, yoga, dance, gymnastics, or stress, a tight hip could be the missing link to enjoying a pain-free life. Hip health is key to a pain free body.
In this book you will:
- Discover how these muscles impact your body from head to toe
- Determine if you are one of the millions of people with a tight iliacus or psoas muscle
- Release the tension in these stressed tissues for good
- Get your body aligned for pain-free performance & increased endurance lowering your risk of injuries
- Prevent iliacus and psoas muscle tightness from developing ever again
- Get detailed hip flexor exercises, tips to address trigger points, exercises for sciatica, tools to keep the hip flexible & solutions for pelvic pain.
- Maintain the health of the hip joint & keep the hip stretchable.

Based on decades of physical therapy practice, this book outlines 3 simple steps to get your hip healthy and your core aligned, helping you resolve your pain and create hip mobility without expensive treatments, surgeries, and medications.
"In her new book Tight Hip, Twisted Core, Christine uses compelling storytelling and her deep experience in physical therapy to shed light on the meaning of a 'tight hip.' She addresses an important and often dreaded twosome, what I often call the 'snarky psoas and irritated iliacus.'As a veteran PT who specializes in hip and pelvic pain and safety for the hip in yoga, I am delighted to see Tight Hip, Twisted Core published. This much needed book can help you begin to understand some of the major players that affect hip health, and give you an understanding of what helps versus what harms the hip. Tight Hip, Twisted Core is an accessible, easy to understand text that can benefit anyone who has had hip pain or anyone whose hip is the cause of pain in other places."--Dr. Ginger Garner, DPT, ATC/LFounder, Professional Yoga Therapy Institute, Author of Medical Therapeutic Yoga
