Where is it placed?
The s·weggy can be used in three positions: Position A, Position B, and/or Position C.
Where is it placed?
Reduce joint and soft tissue stiffness and soreness throughout the lumbopelvic and hip complex for flexibility, mobility and stability training.
Why use it?
Anyone can benefit, whether currently symptomatic or simply looking to improve flexibility , mobility and stability
When to use it?
Anytime! The s·weggy can be used at home, in the gym, at the office, or while traveling with ease.
01.
REST / FLEXIBILITY
Place in one of three positions to support the sacrum in a neutral position for optimal unloading of the surrounding joints and soft tissues.
02.
MOVE / MOBILITY
Add gentle leg and pelvic movements to further release joint and soft tissue tension while improving mobility and tissue length.
03.
TRAIN / STABILITY
Perform multifidus stabilization exercises on the s·weggy to improve lumbopelvic stability from a more optimal position.
The s·weggy is a precisely shaped wedge designed to support the sacrum, pelvis, and lumbar spine in a more neutral position for optimal unloading and training.

Start by selecting the pelvic position that feels most natural for your body,
then visit our video gallery for further instructions
A
Place at the center of the sacrum,
aligned with the center of the
gluteal cleft just below the lumbar spine
B
Place about 1/2 to 1 inch
lower than A. It can be lowered
further as long as it stays secure.
C
Use the reverse orientation of
Position A or Position B.
After choosing your ideal pelvic positioning, progress through the flexibility, mobility, and stability exercises at your own pace.
Joanne Macza designed and invented the s•weggy to optimize the mobilization of the sacrum and pelvic complex and to unload joint and soft tissue restrictions of the sacrum and surrounding joints of the ilium, lumbar spine and hip. In addition,the s•weggy allows the sacrum to be placed in a neutral position relative to the lumbar spine to efficiently and effectively train multifidus activation at the lumbo-pelvic junction for maximum spinal stabilization. This allows for long term stabilization benefits utilized during sitting, standing, walking and higher-level gym activities of varying degrees as well as providing relief of stiffness, tension and symptoms of the low back, pelvis and hips.
Introduction to the s·weggy
"The S-weggy is an effective tool for my patients with chronic low back pain and sacroiliac dysfunction. It helps mobilize stiff joints in the sacrum and pelvis and facilitates better integration of movement and spinal stabilization. I have found it to be highly beneficial both personally and in my clinical practice with patients."
