Mike interviews Physical Therapist Deborah Rizco about SacroIliac Joint Pain & Dysfunction.

Deborah is a physical therapist and author of 2 books written for consumers on pelvic girdle pain, which includes sacroiliac pain. These books are based on my life as a physical therapist over 30 years at a large county urban hospital, MetroHealth Medical Center, Cleveland, OH. I have taught this method to physical therapists, assistants, and students at the national, state, and district levels since 2011.
