Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson Pelvic Drop Table Technique Pelvic Drop Table Technique is a synthesis of concepts and ideas from Thompson, Gonstead, and Activator chiropractic techniques. Chiropractic procedures from each of these techniques are blended together to create a fluid, easy to learn method for analyzing and adjusting the pelvis. Students will come away with a deeper appreciation for integration of chiropractic techniques. Copyright © 2015 Howard Pettersson Pelvic Drop Table Technique • Negative Derifield – Thompson • Derifield Leg Check • Pelvic Drop Table Adjusting – Gonstead • SI Fluid Motion (Palmer Gonstead) • Walking in Place for IN / EX (Gonstead Methodology Institute) – Activator • θY-Axis Isolation Test • Articular Pressure Testing Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson 1 6/15/2015 NEGATIVE DERIFIELD Scenario #1 Posterior Rotation of the Sacrum Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson LEFT SI FLUID MOTION Apply a firm continuous pressure S-I, P-A, and medial-to-lateral through the joint plane into the table. If both legs lengthen simultaneously, then the sacroiliac joint on the side tested is fixed. This test indicates sacroiliac joint fixation for any one of the six primary pelvic listings. Left SI Fluid Motion Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson INITIAL DERIFIELD LEG CHECK Perform the Initial Derifield Leg Check. If Negative Derifield is presented, continue with the Negative Derifield Protocol. Initial Derifield Leg Check has been adapted from: Fuhr, AW, et al. Activator methods chiropractic technique, second edition, St. Louis: Mosby-Elsevier, 2009. Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson 2 6/15/2015 ANKLE INVERSION Typically ankle inversion is noted on the side of the short leg in the prone extended position. (Potential left short leg). If ankle inversion is on the side opposite the short leg in the prone position, it may be due to a previous ankle inversion sprain. Ask the patient about their past history. Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson Note the side of the short leg in the prone extended position (left short leg). Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson If the left short leg in the prone extended position stays short when flexed to 90 degrees, the initial leg check indicates Left Negative Derifield. Negative Derifield confirms a θY-Axis misalignment of the pelvis—EX Ilium, Posterior Rotation of the Sacrum, IN Ilium, or Anterior Rotation of the Sacrum. Next, perform the Left θYAxis Segmental Dysfunction Test for the Pelvis. Thompson Educational Workshops. The thompson technique reference manual. Elgin, IL: 1984. Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson 3 6/15/2015 To perform the Left θY-Axis Segmental Dysfunction Test for the Pelvis, instruct the patient to lock the knee on the side tested. Next, extend the lower extremity at the acetabular hip to its end range. And finally, extend the hip into resistance a few degrees to engage the sacroiliac joint on the side of involvement. Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson Note the left short (indicator) leg in the prone extended position. Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson Left θY-Axis Segmental Dysfunction Test – Left Posterior Rotation of the Sacrum If the reactive (indicator) leg stays short in the prone extended position and the leg on the side tested (left) becomes long when the legs are flexed to 90 degrees, pressure test for Left Posterior Rotation of the Sacrum and left EX Ilium. Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson 4 6/15/2015 Pressure test* for Posterior Rotation of the Sacrum. Apply a Posterior-to-Anterior and Medial-to Lateral Pressure. To pressure test for Left Posterior Rotation of the Sacrum, apply a posterior-toanterior and medial-tolateral pressure on the left sacral ala just lateral to the first and second sacral tubercles. *Haas M, Peterson D, Panzer D, Rothman E, Solomon S, Krein R, et al.

Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson If the legs become even in the prone extended position and flexed position upon pressure testing, adjust for Left Posterior Rotation of the Sacrum. Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson Correct for Left Posterior Rotation of the Sacrum. CP: #1b – hook of the hamate SCP: Between S2 tubercle and PSIS Stab: Wrap around stabilization Deliver a straight P-A thrust through the sacroiliac joint space. The LOD is P-A & medial-to-lateral through the sacroiliac joint space. Copyright © 1999 & 2014 Howard Pettersson 5 6/15/2015 Post-Adjustment Leg Check: The legs should become even in the prone extended and 90° flexion positions after adjusting for Left Posterior Rotation of the Sacrum. Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson LEFT SI FLUID MOTION Post Ajustment: The leg on the side tested should now lengthen while the leg on the opposite side remains stationary indicating that the sacroiliac joint on the side tested is now freely moveable. The foot of the stationary leg may demonstrate moderate toe-out foot flare, which is considered a normal variant. Left SI Fluid Motion Copyright © Howard Pettersson 2014 NEGATIVE DERIFIELD FLOWCHART Left SI Fluid Motion Fixation Right or Left Negative Derifield Leg Check confirms a θY-Axis misalignment of the pelvis— Posterior Rotation of the Sacrum, EX Ilium, IN Ilium, or Anterior Rotation of the Sacrum. Perform the Left θY-Axis Segmental Dysfunctional Test for the Pelvis. If the side tested flexed leg becomes long, Articular pressure test for P-L and Left EX Ilium. If the legs become even in the extended and flexed positions Upon articular pressure testing for P-L, adjust P-L. The legs should be even in the extended and flexed positions upon post-adjustment Derifield leg check, and post-adjustment Right SI Fluid Motion should now be freely moveable. 6 6/15/2015 NEGATIVE DERIFIELD Scenario #2 EX Ilium Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson Walking in Place: Instruct the patient to line the tips of their shoes on the yellow line. Next, instruct the patient to place their fingertips on the wall to stabilize themselves while they Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson walk in place. Walking in Place: Instruct the patient to close their eyes and walk in place for 30 seconds. After 30 seconds, instruct the patient to stop. Next, observe the position of their feet. Look for relative toe-in and toeout foot flare. Also, note whether one foot is in front of the other. If one foot is in front of the other, and also has relative toe-in foot flare; this may indicate potential EX Ilium on that side. Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson 7 6/15/2015 EX ILIUM ANECDOTAL FINDINGS • The patient may experience sciatic-like pain down the back of the thigh. Copyright © Howard Pettersson 1999 EX ILIUM VISUALIZATION • Observe the contour of the gluteal musculature that extends about two inches laterally from the PSIS. This strip of muscle, normally about two inches wide, appears narrow and hunched compared to the opposite side. Copyright © Howard Pettersson 1999 Right Gluteal Hunching Note the right gluteal hunching and the left gluteal flattening. Gluteal hunching is a visual finding for EX Ilium. Right Left Copyright © 2015 Howard Pettersson 8 6/15/2015 EX ILIUM TRIGGER POINTS • The gluteus medius trigger points may be tender upon palpation. One is located two inches, and the other four inches lateral of the PSIS, respectively. These trigger points may be present even though the problem may be an IN ilium on the opposite side. Copyright © Howard Pettersson 1999 RIGHT SI FLUID MOTION Apply a firm continuous pressure S-I, P-A, and medial-to-lateral through the joint plane into the table. If both legs lengthen simultaneously, then the sacroiliac joint on the side tested is fixed. This test indicates sacroiliac joint fixation for any one of the six primary pelvic listings.

Copyright © 2014 Howard Pettersson 11 6/15/2015 Pressure test* for Right EX Ilium. Apply an arcing tissue pull, roll in from inferior-to-superior and lateral-to-medial against the lateral, inferior aspect of the PSIS to pressure test for Right EX ilium. *Haas M, Peterson D, Panzer D, Rothman E, Solomon S, Krein R, et al.

Perform an arcing tissue pull, roll in from I-S, and lateral-tomedial until 10b (proximal thenar – green dot) butts up against the bony ridge separating the iliac ala from the PSIS. Utilize a curvilinear thrust I-S, P-A, and lateral-to-medial. The elbow is torqueing “in” from lateral-to-medial up the articulation.

If one foot is behind the other, and also has relative toe-out foot flare; this may indicate potential IN Ilium on that side.
