Normalise - LLD
Permalink   
 


Hi, 

I have a quick question about the leg length discrepancy. At what point can you confidently say it is a structural problem causing the discrepancy and not pelvic? I take it that it's not when you have done the initial bit of feet on table, bridge, legs past 90 and back down but rather once the pelvis has been normalised and you are doing the measurement and there is still a difference in length showing. Would you then have to have the whole pelvis normalised for other tests, sciatic nerve normalised and QL normalised to be totally sure?

Thanks,

Jeff

Hi Jeff,

Once you're happy that they are pasing all the pelvic tests and in particular downings (where the leg length) is lengthening and shortening and there is still an LLD, then its likely to be genetic or stuctural.  while QL and the others like sciatic can impact LLD (by virtue of their infleuence on the pelvis), the pelvic screens are the key ones.
