Exceptional Results: Client comes in with low back pain and hips misaligned. So I worked the QL and hips and hamstrings, but the back was still in pain. I used a counter strain technique on hips and had client do pelvic tilt while using deep breathing to help release all surrounding muscles. Clients SI pain had been decreased following with greater range of motion as the sessions continued
