Treating a Deviated Coccyx

Описание: Jessica Wyen demonstrates a practical technique for addressing a deviated coccyx and its impact on hip motion and sitting tolerance.

Jessica walks through a hands-on approach that is especially valuable for orthopedic clinicians who encounter patients with tailbone pain, discomfort with sitting, or unexplained limitations in hip internal and external rotation. She highlights how coccyx deviation—often following a fall, childbirth, or trauma—can contribute to persistent symptoms that are frequently missed in traditional orthopedic exams.

In this video, you’ll learn:
→ How to identify a deviated coccyx through palpation
→ Two different hand placements for coccyx contact (key pinch vs. finger hook)
→ How coccyx position can influence hip rotation mobility
→ A gentle muscle energy–based technique to address coccyx deviation
→ When to re-screen hip motion to assess treatment effectiveness
→ Common patient presentations, including pain with sitting and “butt bone” discomfort

This demonstration shows how incorporating pelvic floor–informed techniques can significantly enhance orthopedic evaluation and treatment—especially for patients who haven’t responded to traditional approaches.

If you’d like to build a stronger foundation in pelvic floor anatomy, assessment, and treatment strategies—and confidently integrate these concepts into orthopedic practice—these topics are covered in depth in our Introduction to Diagnosis and Treatment of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction course.
