Tightness in the iliacus and psoas muscles (your hip flexors) can contribute to tailbone pain because they directly impact the alignment of the bones making up your pelvis -- 2 ilium bones, the sacrum, and the coccyx (your tailbone). Tension and imbalance in these muscles twist the pelvis and can impact the positioning of your tailbone and cause pain.
The Mark is designed to apply pressure to the iliacus and psoas muscles to reduce tightness. When used consistently over time, the Mark can help support better movement and an improved alignment of the hips, pelvis, and tailbone, reducing your pain.
For best results, the Aletha Health products should be used together and alongside other stretches and exercises. Please check with your healthcare practitioner for which stretches and exercises are appropriate for you.
