L.L.I. – I.S. Correction prev called ‘Ovarian Suspensory Ligament’

By

Welcome

The explanations here (CLICK) may be very handy FIRST

Alignment – Physical as structure determines function.

This cuts through all ‘diagnoses’ and labels – these belong to those who are not following how a body works.
The province of the ones who constantly say ‘we don’t know’.

This is arguably the most important thing we can do – untwist a body.
It has so many steps . .
Before we get here

We have to release what is keeping the body stuck in the unnatural ways it is.
AND we must work out (so it is not continuing) how did this happen?
For some – a forgotten/ignored torsion injury after a whiplash.
A fall/incident long forgotten.
(Body remembers everything that it has ever happened to it)
Maybe a life of strange positioning – ask any mum – most youngsters will only sit on one hip.
We mums can get very bent

Remember – how the adhesions on that vertebrae are attacked/encouraged to let go – is why we sprinkle all sorts of other helper around – we HAVE to get this untethered.

Is why we do this move almost last.

FIXING – Checking in – the obligatory pull up first 

  • Figure of 8 . . (And keep touching the person all the time).
  • 2.36 – other side to be done
  • 3.45 – Listen to how she feels it change in her body)
  • 5 minutes in – Steph relating how she feels with it.
  • 5.40 – Observe why we stretch before – is another checker that they can FEEL the difference in.
    Sacral stretches and one then other side – to show we still need to do all the other stages of this sequence.

    Many steps

    Setting up (CLICK)

    1 – Where the ligament attaches – part 1

    As a teaching exercise we trialed the anterior – and see the difference!
    We had done all the sacral smash first – you need to.

    2 – The pelvic component – part 2

    The anterior – ‘fall down’/slide is usual. And is done the opposite of the posterior correction (when eeh  hill/sticks up.

    Side not adjusted is a straight pull
    As we went UP (it was a slide down) we turn foot OUTWARDS

    Stretches

    As much follow up – more settling/soothing/clearing and check how all now is

    • Beginning – hip correction first
    • 0.35 – upper body torsion shoulder
    • 1.45  shakey shakey
    • 2.10 – stretch to allow time for body to catch up
    • 2.40 – checking in

    (It is great when we have an aware person who is in their body – daily yoga/committed vegetarian)

    Steph stuffed her ankle – so we have to ask about surgeries on the legs before we grab, pull and twist

    • 1.25 – shakey shakey
    • 1.40 – shoulder blades straightened
    • 1.46 – back stretch

    Steps: set them up to win

    Maybe a steam happened before this?
    Would be ideal. And sacra moxa fan.

    This is likely the last thing you are doing . after the entire GW session.
    The sacral smash and allied moves is great when you are not too sure as to what to do.
    Please do all of them – as I have discovered (2021) that the Mercier work is ‘the bomb’ – and the I.S. is to be left to the very last . . – that way it is more likely to be permanent.
    When in doubt – do more of the Foundational Moves. Recycle .  .
    Go back through the 5 classifications – checking, clearing, soothing – this is a FIX and settle (if needed(.

    • 1 – Work out which correction is needed
      Look as well as feel – the pelvis may be tilted.
      The shoulder blades may be a dead give away. Which waist point is sorest? Release the other one first.
    • 2 – Work into the vertebrae where the attachments to all different ligaments are..
    • 3 – The hip/leg rotation – If it is an ANTERIOR – slide/fall down – you grasp the hip bone and rotate from the inner leg – pull it up. You round your back out, breathe in, and on your out – do it. Count of 10  x 3.
    • 4 – The shoulder /hip rotation – Keeping your left hand on the hip and swap with the right – and your left now is on the shoulder blade – that is now a TWIST. Feels amazing – ask how it is – if they are not relieved/happy – maybe not needed? Count of 10  x 3. 
    • 5 – Shakey the way down – and on the way up. Keep your hands on the body. Go to top of body
    • 6 – Stretch out – stretch YOUR back and breathe out and stretch them secondarily.
    • 7  – Shakey the way down.
    • 8 – Pull leg – The not involved one is only a pull. Twist OUT if anterior and IN if posterior. Pull gently.
    • 9 – Shakey shakey on the way up
    • 10 – Stretch  – slow, firm. Each side the of back – lower onto the buttocks and on sacrum.

    They now should look and feel amazingly straight.

     Do the press onto the side that is ‘wrong’ feeling.

    Finish as you feel to.

    Maybe more SLQR and hippy shakes after some light sacral work. They really need to get up and wander about now. And only to front for what next – if you feel there is still some to do.
