A nice review on chronic pelvic pain in sports from Chaitow’s chat.
Here is one of his texts from my Amazon store.

Dr, Cubos,
For someone solely involved on the training side of the coin and without a manual therapy background, do you feel that the following list of Leon Chaitow’s books would still be of value or money that would likely have been more productive if invested toward other resources? I don’t doubt that they would be chock full of the highest quality of information, I am just curious how much practical information there would be for the average strength coach who isn’t also certified in an area that would allow for hand-ons therapy.
1) Positional Release Techniques
2) Muscle Energy Techniques (as depicted above)
3) Clinical Application of Neuromuscular Techniques Volumes 1 and 2
4) Modern Neuromuscular Techniques (soon to be released)
I also wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for sharing so much quality information and many thought-provoking posts via this blog. It is a privilege to stop by and check it all out.
Thanks Marty. I will be honest and say that from the above, the only text I own is MET. I understand your situation and would still suggest you pick this up. Even a used copy will do. While you may not be able to do specific hands on work, at least you will comprehend the value of such an approach. The last chapter actually deals with MET in the athletic setting and would be great info for you to have since it seems to be geared toward individuals such as yourself.
If you want more information on Clinical Application of Neuromuscular Techniques, I suggest you contact Patrick Ward (www.optimumsportsperformance.com). He is VERY well versed in that text.
Hope this helps
