Functionally, the gluteus maximus is an important muscle primarily because of its pelvic posterior tilt concentric contraction function, and because of its isometric stabilization function to armor/protect the sacroiliac joint. Manual therapists should be mindful to especially assess the superior fibers lateral to the PSIS.
The tensor fasciae latae (TFL) is a hip flexor that is commonly tight, and strongly linked to lower crossed syndrome, and is a key target for massage and stretching.
The lumbosacral spine should have a healthy anterior pelvic tilt and lumbar lordosis. If they are excessive, the client has lower crossed syndrome.
