Dear mother, after ten months of hardship during pregnancy, your pelvis has undergone tremendous changes. The secretion of relaxin expands the pelvis and creates space for the baby to grow. However, if it is not repaired in time after delivery, it may cause: • Pelvic pain, back pain • Urinary incontinence and other pelvic floor muscle problems • Body shape changes (big butt, pot waist) • Impact on the quality of life of the couple

Dear mother, during pregnancy and childbirth, your body will secrete "relaxin" to help the pelvis expand and allow the baby to be born smoothly. But sometimes this separation will exceed the normal range (>10mm), causing: • Severe pain in the pubic area when walking • Difficulty turning over, affecting sleep quality • Possible pelvic floor problems such as urinary incontinence • Long-term chronic pelvic pain

Postpartum pelvic pain is a normal physiological phenomenon after childbirth. Generally speaking, the pelvis will automatically return to its pre-natal state after childbirth. The pain is only temporary. Mothers can first relieve postpartum pelvic pain by doing postpartum pelvic repair exercises. Common postpartum pelvic exercises such as "Kegel exercises" and simple movements such as squats and hip bridges can stabilize the pelvis and reduce the degree of postpartum pelvic pain.

Simply put, it is for the smooth delivery of the fetus. When a woman is pregnant, especially before delivery, as the fetal head slowly descends into the pelvis, the ovaries will secrete a substance called "relaxin", which makes the sacroiliac joint, pubic symphysis cartilage and ligaments loose, and the pubic symphysis and sacroiliac joints on both sides are slightly separated, so that the pelvis is temporarily enlarged to facilitate the smooth delivery of the baby. During the delivery process, due to the large fetus, the long delivery process, and the unequal force during delivery, the pubic symphysis will be further separated. In addition, factors such as excessive fatigue of the waist after delivery cause damage to the pubic symphysis ligament, resulting in slight dislocation of the sacroiliac joint. The position of the pubic symphysis cannot return to its normal position after delivery, forming postpartum pubic symphysis separation. Pubic symphysis separation is mainly seen in late pregnancy and postpartum women, often manifested as pubic symphysis pain, sciatica, vaginal relaxation, gynecological inflammation, and in severe cases, a duck-like walking posture may occur. If postpartum rehabilitation is not carried out in time, complications such as pubic osteitis, bleeding and even infection may also occur. Common diagnostic criteria for symphysis pubis separation: symphysis pubis gap width > 10mm, left and right misalignment ≥ 5mm. The therapist will use gentle, slow massage techniques to correct the rectus abdominis, pubic dislocation and closure. Improve urinary incontinence, coccygeal pain, hip pain, symphysis pubis ligament relaxation, etc.

Acute joint injuries, micro-displacements caused by chronic strain, disc herniation, edema, scar adhesions and other lesions can squeeze or block nerves and produce symptoms***, and the squeezed nerves will cause the muscles they control to spasm and contract, compressing other nerves, forming a vicious cycle. Bone-setting manipulation can directly relieve the compression of the nerves by the above-mentioned protrusions, indirectly relieve muscle spasms, and loosen some scar adhesions, further decompressing the nerves; therefore, one treatment and a few movements can greatly relieve symptoms and interrupt the vicious cycle*** What symptoms are produced depends on which nerves are compressed. If the sensory nerves are compressed, sensory dysfunction such as pain, paralysis, burning/coldness can occur. If the motor nerves are compressed, motor dysfunction such as muscle weakness, muscle atrophy, and spasm can occur. If the visceral nerves are compressed, visceral dysfunction such as palpitations and dyspnea can occur.

The reason why "bone reduction" sometimes needs to be performed multiple times is related to the fact that the joint has not regained stability. After bone reduction, the nerves are no longer compressed, and the tissues around the joints, such as muscles, tendons, and ligaments, will begin to gradually recover and become stable. However, this recovery process takes time. During this period, even minor injuries or overuse of joints that have not fully recovered stability may cause the joints to shift slightly again, requiring re-reduction. Therefore, "bone reduction" sometimes needs to be performed multiple times, and this cycle will continue until the joint is fully stabilized. In order to promote recovery, avoiding various pathogenic factors, using the body rationally, and proper stretching and exercise are essential for joint recovery.

Some people will feel soreness and fatigue for 1-3 days after bone setting, while a small number of people will feel soreness and fatigue for 3-7 days. It is recommended to rest for two days after bone setting. The degree of soreness and fatigue after bone setting is proportional to the degree of joint dislocation before bone setting. The more severe the joint dislocation before bone setting, the more obvious the soreness and fatigue after bone setting. As the number of treatments increases, the degree of joint dislocation decreases, and the soreness and fatigue after bone setting will gradually decrease. Because the joint condition has been improved after the first bone setting, the soreness and fatigue after the second bone setting will be less than the first. The mechanisms of soreness and fatigue after bone setting are mainly as follows: Muscles that have not been exerting force in the wrong posture begin to exert force to maintain the correct posture after bone setting. The workload suddenly doubles, so it is easy to feel soreness and fatigue. The previously spasmodic muscles hinder blood circulation, causing metabolic waste produced by cells to accumulate in the muscles. After bone setting, the muscles are relieved from the spasm state, and the metabolic waste accumulated in the muscles is released all at once, causing local soreness and fatigue.

• You will feel sore and tired after treatment. Please refer to point 2 above for the reasons.
• Your body needs to recover. It is recommended that you go home and rest immediately.
• It is recommended to rest for at least 2 days.

It varies from person to person, from the duration of symptoms to the severity of the disease. Generally speaking: • The more obedient and disciplined the patient is, the faster the disease will be cured. • The shorter the duration of symptoms, the faster the disease will be cured. • The milder the disease, the faster the disease will be cured. • The younger the patient is, the faster the disease will be cured.

After a cold is cured, you may catch it again. Similarly, after being cured: • Use your body properly and get rid of bad postures and habits, the effect can last for a long time • Use your body beyond the limit, work overtime, and do not improve bad postures and habits, the disease will keep coming back. Working for a long time requires maintaining the same posture, liking to lie half-lying on the bed/sofah to watch TV, looking down at the phone, etc., are all major causes of illness. If you feel that you cannot change, it is recommended to maintain regular maintenance and conditioning. The frequency of conditioning depends on your personal physical condition.
