Summary

The iliolumbar ligament, one of the sacroiliac ligaments, has been identified in recent research as a contributor to low back pain when tight. During pregnancy, hormonal changes and postural changes can cause this ligament to tighten, leading to pain. Releasing the iliolumbar ligament can reduce low back pain and restore normal mechanical function.

Conditions
