Here is a list of pelvic physio's Poppy.

I have no idea if any of them can treat SIJD problems too, although I have heard that Dr Ruth Jones (Hampshire?) does look at the whole pelvis and lower spine (maybe more??) to try and find the problem.
Hope something helps soon
Take care
Helen

Thank you for that link. Sadly there isn't anyone remotely within reach for me. Tried a local physio last week who advertises pelvic floor work but she wouldn't touch me and thought it was a spinal problem and she wasn't qualified to treat me. I think she deals mainly with pelvic floor exercises for incontinence.

No, there is no one near me either, Hurumph!! although I know that Maeve Whelan has held seminars and more and more physio's are taking up the pelvic challenge
. There is also a couple of pelvic floor exercises on her site which can only be good practice in general, as they aren't too tricky.
Take care,
Helen
