 When sacrum rotates, the promontory moves inferiorly and anteriorly while apex of sacrum and tip of coccyx move posteriorly and superiorly
o Eccentric Rotation
 Innominate bone rotates in a counterclockwise direction, in which the PSIS of ilium moves posterior
o Concentric Rotation
 Ilium on opposite side of sacral subluxation, will rotate clockwise, in which the PSIS of ilium moves anterior
