I can't believe it! I have had severe hip stiffness in my right hip and have pain in my knee when I do the pigeon pose lying on my back. My physical therapist said my external mobility is very limited. I was able to lay on my bed, put my feet against the wall as in your video and I had zero pain in my knee! I did the stretch 3 times and still zero pain but a nice stretch on my outer hip! So thankful for your videos! I was diagnosed last week with arthritis in my hips and I am only 44. Your videos have given me hope that to can get back my mobility and strength. I love you stretches and your stretches are more productive than when I had PT. Thank you thank you!

Yes to a follow-up video! I don't remember when I first noticed my pelvic twist; it was around the time I found out I have osteoarthritis in my right hip and was in terrible pain. Now I go long periods of time with no pain, but when the pain is back, I'm usually twisted when I look in the mirror (I'm looking straight and my hips are facing left). Stretching helps, but the problem always comes back.

I love how you give adaptations to the exercises; and encourage slow progression. Thank you.

Most of my issues stem from my hypermobility. I would love to see more on how to strengthen the muscles supporting the hips, lower back, and even ribs for stability. Thanks for all you do, you're a wonderful help! 🙏🏻 I appreciate your humor and candor as well!

Love this video! I am a former gymnast of 17 years and I have scoliosis plus pelvic rotation. I'm super limber and sometimes I don't feel like stretching is the right move for some of the challenges I'm having with mobility. Would love a follow up on some strengthening exercises for pelvic rotation! I'm a big believer in muscles muscles muscles as you referenced in the beginning of this vid!! ❤️ thank you for sharing your knowledge with us all

I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, and pretty severe joint hypermobility. I'm working on strengthening exercises to try to relieve some of my chronic pain. I'd love that follow up video for us hypermobile folks. Thanks Matt!

Thank you ♥️. Mine was identified by X-ray in my mid-20s, 16 years ago, by my chiropractor. No one has ever addressed why this happened or how to fix it. I look forward to following you vids and seeing if I can now love pain free.

[panache]

Definitely need a pelvic stabalizing workout!

I would love to see the follow up video to restore symmetry through building strength. Thank you so much for all the great content.

Really loved the quad stretch. As someone who has pelvic rotation and anterior pelvic tilt with tight quads, this stretch was way deeper than others I was doing and has made a difference. Thank you! I love your videos!

[alexg]

I’ve gotta tell you… recently found your videos and program and I’ve finally felt relief that I haven’t found in years. Thank you!

[tinalewis]

I have hypermobility EDS and pelvic issues. After years and years of NHS medical gaslighting and being told by so called, 'medical practitioners' that it is all in my head, these exercises are really helping me. Thank you, I can't even put into words how much your video has saved me from more unnecessary suffering. The British NHS and the majority of people working for it are corrupt and evil.

I gain confidence & courage from your lessons ~ your explanations & demonstration is so helpful 👏🏼
(& thank Boney also - his demonstrations are fab!)

After years of chronic lower back pain, a physical therapist finally identified pelvic rotation as one of my big problems (in addition to my scoliosis). I now give a lot of attention to keeping my pelvis stable, it's an ongoing project! Thanks for this video :)

Well well, greetings from the UK...I have an over rotated hip from tennis - ouch .. the exercise with crossing one leg over the other worked so well - I held it for 20secs and heard a 'pop' at 15s ... and instantly felt freer ... just as well as Im playing tennis tomorrow. So thanks and I will pay attention to your strengthening excercises to help not get the same condition every time I play.

I ended up in the ER with extreme pain. Finally got to a physical therapist. She noticed my hip twisted and leg length different. She is doing a great job. So far 3 sessions and feeling much better.

[donnachristensen]

Yes!!! Follow up please. At the age of 45 I've come to realize I'm hyper mobile in a #of joints. Always looking for strength work!

Best video I've seen on these exercises. Both my physical therapist and massage therapist have told me that my right hip is internally rotated. Makes sense, as I realized my external rotation is more limited than my left. This is in the context of trying to address any imbalances that may be contributing to arthritis pain in the right knee.
