In Watch the Walk!, Erik Dalton reveals how subtle breakdowns in cross-patterned movement expose hidden neurological and biomechanical stress patterns long before pain shows up on the massage table.

Erik Dalton’s SI Decompression In this technique, the femur is used as a long lever to influence motion at the sacroiliac joint while the therapist stabilizes the posterior pelvis. As the hip and knee are flexed, the femur creates a gentle traction and rotational force through the acetabulum, encouraging subtle posterior rotation of the innominate and a decompressive gapping effect at the SI joint. Because the sacrum is stabilized, movement is directed through the lumbopelvic junction rather tha

Cervical Warm Up Technique Erik begins work on the cervical region with this warm up technique. Slow lateral flexion with slight traction encourages synovial fluid movement through the facet joints while warming the scalenes, upper traps, and cervical erectors.

Subtalar Joint Mobilization In this video excerpt, Erik demonstrates one method for mobilizing the subtalar joint. People need functional movement in the subtalar joint to lessen wear and tear and reduce damaging knee, hip, and low back compensation. Pain from plantar fasciitis and medial shin splints often have roots in a dysfunctional talocalcaneal articulation where the talus has glided forward on the calcaneus and become fixated there. Would you like to learn manual techniques to mobilize th

Try this Technique for the Sacroiliac Joint A stable pelvis is achieved through proper upper and lower quadrant balance and is essential for long-term low back and SI joint health. In the presence of pelvic instability, the brain will attempt to stabilize the lumbosacral joint by layering the area with protective spasm, but it does little good for therapists to try and release the muscle hypertonicity until the hip and pelvic alignment problems are corrected.
