First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a movement retraining program called kinetic control training in 46 adults with chronic sacroiliac joint dysfunction. Participants either received this training plus routine physical therapy or routine therapy alone. Researchers measured changes in pain, balance, walking, and endurance over 8 weeks. The goal was to see if focusing on core and hip muscle control could improve symptoms better than standard care.
