HIP LIGAMENTS AND MUSCLE IMBALANCE

The hip joint is strengthen by three capsular ligaments: the iliofermoral ligament and the pubofemoral ligament are on the anterior aspect of the joint, while the ischiofemoral ligament is on the posterior aspect. As the hip is flexed, all three ligaments relax. However, in extension all three ligaments are tight, with the inferior band of the iliofemoral ligament being placed under greatest tension as it runs almost vertically. It is this ligamentous band which limits posterior tilt of the pelvis.

During adduction, it is the turn of the superior band of the iliofemoral ligament to become tighter while the pubofemoral ligament and ischiofemoral ligament relax. In abduction the opposite occurs. In lateral rotation both the iliofemoral ligament and pubofermoral ligament are taut, while medial in rotation the ischiofemoral ligament tightens.

WHAT DO YOUR FEET TELL YOU?

 The feet tell you a lot about what’s happening above them, at rest and during movement.

 The posture (position) your feet are in is the result of what’s happening upstream. Your foot position is intimately related to how well you control the position of your pelvis and how well your hips are able to function as a result of this.

 The stability, strength, and control of your hips and pelvic musculature determines whether you can maintain control of every joint beneath them, and therefore maintain the desired position of your joints at rest and during movement.

Gait can be defined as waking pattern, it represents a person’s walking style. A patient’s gait cycle is often being considered by physiotherapist as an important indicator for body pain, because after an injury or illness, a person’s way of walk can changed which can lead to an altered gait cycle. As to offer strategies to help patients to walk better and more safely, a physical therapist may analyze a patient’s gait as to determine impairments or compensatory body motions that could contribute to body pain of any functional mobility loss.
