In posture today, there are many ways to try to fix a hip hike or a chronic pain. Dr. Bernard Bricot in the 80's created a system working with different sensors in the body. In his techniques, the most common is working with the eyes,feet, vestibular system, scars, Jaw and if needed assessing a shorter leg.
Today, I had an interesting case where the eyes, jaw was not a problem. So I proceeded to assess if my client had a shorter leg that resulted in a hip hike. At the end,I used a 14 millimeter Heel on the left side to reestablish his posture but he still didn't have full neck rotation.
I then proceeded to ask him if he had a scar somewhere in the body that might create obstruction to the fascia. He replied that he had a 2 inch by 2 inch scar on his left butt cheek that he never knew what happened since he was a baby. So we put some ice & then rosewood oil and almond oil mix on the scar in question.
To my surprise, he had regained full mobility in the neck but most important of all, his squat was impeccable and the hips leveled without the 14 millimeter heel. This my friends is called a false shorter leg. So in the future, know that a scar can and will result and changing your posture if left untreated.
For people interested the mix is 20% rosewood oil and 80% almond oil and if you want to see in the future if that scar is a problem, just ice the scar in question and check your range of motion and squatting pattern
