Fascial vs muscle techniques for sacroiliac joint pain
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two hands-on treatments for sacroiliac joint dysfunction, a common cause of lower back and hip pain. It aims to see which approach better reduces pain, improves movement, and helps with daily activities.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares two hands-on physical therapy techniques to reduce lower back pain, improve walking, and restore function in people with sacroiliac joint dysfunction (a condition affecting the joint connecting your spine to your pelvis). You'll receive treatment and be assessed to see which technique works better.
This study compares two types of manual therapy for people with sacroiliac joint dysfunction—a condition that causes pain in the lower back, pelvis, or buttock. You may be eligible if you have had pain for more than 2 weeks and tests show problems with your pelvis.
This trial tests whether a combination of hands-on joint mobilization techniques and specific movement control exercises can reduce pain and improve function in people with sacroiliac joint dysfunction (pain in the lower back/buttock area where the spine connects to the pelvis). You would receive these treatments over several weeks and be measured on pain relief, movement, walking, and daily activities.
This study compares two types of hands-on therapy (a gentle side-lying adjustment vs. a lower back roll) to see which works better for long-lasting low back pain caused by the sacroiliac joint. If you have ongoing pain and are open to physical treatments, this trial may help find the best approach.
This trial compares two physical therapy approaches for people with sacroiliac joint dysfunction (pain in the lower back or pelvis). It aims to see which approach better improves function and reduces pain.
This study tests whether a needle-based treatment (dry needling) can help release tight ligaments around your sacroiliac joint—the joint where your spine meets your pelvis—and reduce pain. You'll be evaluated to see if your joint dysfunction can be safely treated with this approach.
