Comments about The Hesch Method:Treating Pelvic and Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction

From Dallas/ Ft. Worth area February 20-21, 2010:
I feel that this approach is much more thorough compared to the other courses. I feel more confident in treating my patients. Most courses i take, I feel like I have to "experiment" with my patients more until I learn the technique. With this approach, I feel like I can go to work and start treating immediately-without stumbling through it.....Hillary Grimm, PT, MS
More applicable because it is easier to digest and easier for patients to comply with....Shannon Lutz, MS, PT
From Auburn, Massachusetts, March 21-22, 2009:
Much better organization of order of treatment and testing/ evaluation. Great course, great organization, great straight-forward concepts and treatment….Charles Brown, MS, PT with over 25 years experience
Chris is great, besides her friendly personality and good sense of humor, the knowledge and protocol is clear, simple and effective. Lab work: loved it!- all that HANDS-ON…..Anne B. Smith, PT
Much more clear as far as explanation of evaluation and treatment. Easier to learn and grasp. Chris, you were great! Thanks for lots of information, techniques and explanations….. Shellie Parkinson, MS, PT
Far easier to apply immediately. Well presented with a great amount of lab time to apply and then move on…..Pat O’Malley, PTA

An athlete of mine had a complicated history of 5-year post coccyx fracture with surgical removal of the coccyx, and an iliofemoral postero-medial labral tear, so I was unsure if the Hesch method was the best course of treatment for her, until after I took the course. Soon after learning the techniques, I used them with her for three treatments sessions, and she is now running for the first time in 4 months.
Thank you for the wonderful education, and helping us as ATC's… God bless the Hesch method!

 I just wanted to thank you again for the great course in Indianapolis, Indiana, on 9/8/07. You have a contagious excitement and I am now pumped to see some SIJ clients, instead of dreading them as I did before your course. I will relay my positive feedback to my director for we are still hoping to bring the course to Goshen. Also, thanks for treating me. We saw the difference at the course, but I also saw a difference while playing disc golf the next day. In disc, there are huge transverse plane motions. I felt better power transfer from my left hip with less effort to get the distance required. I'm looking forward to applying the techniques, and I'm sure I will have a few questions, so plan on a few more e-mails. Please extend my thanks to Jerry Hesch for developing this work.

I attended your course in Jacksonville, Florida, several years ago (2002), and it changed my practice. I now employ passive accessory motion testing as my primary indicator of pelvic joint dysfunction, along with SIJ provocation testing. I also use active motion testing, load transfer test, ASLR, and palpation for alignment and pain. I share your suspicion that the mobility of the SIJs and pubic symphysis can directly affect the function of the pelvic floor.

 The Hesch method Treatment really helped me a lot, both immediately when I got off the table and over the next couple of weeks. Now when I have a very long day at the hospital, I get the home program done, and I get immediate relief. There is definitely an immediate change.
