| | Construct a facsimile of the inguinal ligament on your articulated pelvis by attaching a string to the anterior superior iliac spine and the pubic tubercle. | | | At this point you should mainly be aware as you dissect the pelvis that some of the structures you see in the pelvis are not "native" to the region, but are passing to or from the lower limb. | | | The orientation of the pelvis with the body in the upright position is with the anterior superior iliac spine and the superior part of the pubic symphysis in a vertical plane, as shown below. |

| | The person may not have an awareness of the safe position for his or her spine and pelvis. | | | The person may need to activate the gluts and abdominal muscles more effectively to keep the pelvis and lumbar spine stabilized. | | | This causes a misalignment (collapse into extension) of the spine instead of the spine being integrated and balanced as it maintains its natural curvature. |

| | The Pelvis |
| | The true diameter of the pelvic inlet is difficult to assess clinically. | | | The bones of the pelvis articulate with each other through the sacro-iliac joints, the symphysis pubis and the sacrococcygeal joint. | | | The coccyx is formed of three to five fused vertebrae, articulating with the inferior border of the sacrum. |

| | Optimum Foetal Positioning |
| | Posterior presentation is more of a problem for first babies and their mothers than it is for subsequent births; when a mother has given birth before, there is generally much more room for maneouvre, so it is easier for the baby to rotate during labour. | | | Mothers of babies in the 'posterior' position are more likely to have long and painful labours as the baby usually has to turn all the way round to facing the back in order to be born. | | | In this position, the baby's head is easily 'flexed', ie his chin tucked onto his chest, so that the smallest part of his head will be applied to the cervix first. |

| | Because the pelvis is the foundation and base of support for the back, spinal column, chest, shoulder girdles, neck and head, asymmetry in the pelvis often gets relayed to the skull due to postural adaptations. | | | Our goals of treatment are to restore alignment, balance and mobility to the pelvis, sacrum, thoracic and lumbar spines, the back and hip muscles, connective tissues, and abdominopelvic organs. | | | These compensations may occur in the lumbar, thoracic and cervical spines due to the pelvic imbalances. |

| | The muscles of the levator ani are important supportive muscles for the midline organs of the pelvis. | | | The puborectalis is actually a part of the pubococcygeus muscle that wraps around the posterior aspect of the rectum forming a sling that holds the rectum forward in the pelvis. | | | These midline structures are supported by a musculature pelvic diaphragm which we will discuss in a moment. |

| | Pubic Pain |
| | Your pelvis is a kind of a circular bone that goes all around and almost meets in the middle in front. | | | The Pubic Symphysis and the Sacro-Iliac joints (in the back of the pelvis) are especially important during pregnancy, as their flexibility allows the bones to move freely and to expand to help a baby fit through more easily during birth. | | | Therefore, it cannot be stated from an evidence-based point of view that pelvic alignment is associated with fetal malpositions or difficult labors, or that re-aligning the pelvis would prevent malpositions, prevent cesareans, or lessen the incidence of difficult labors. |

| | Pelvis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The pelvis is the bony structure located at the base of the spine (properly known as the caudal end). | | | These three bones fuse together with age and are collectively known as the hip bone, ossa coxae or the innominate bone. | | | The pelvis protects the digestive and reproductive organs in the lower part of the body, and many large nerves and blood vessels pass through it to supply the legs. |

| | The size of the pelvis varies not only in the two sexes, but also in different members of the same sex, and does not appear to be influenced in any way by the height of the individual. | | | —There is arrest of development in the bones of the pelvis in cases of extroversion of the bladder; the anterior part of the pelvic girdle is deficient, the superior rami of the pubes are imperfectly developed, and the symphysis is absent. | | | The position of the pelvis in the erect posture may be indicated by holding it so that the anterior superior iliac spines and the front of the top of the symphysis pubis are in the same vertical plane. |
