How to fix the uneven pelvis
A pelvic imbalance is a most common condition and easily treated. This is a cause of poor posture, lifting incorrectly, poor daily habits, and weak core cause muscles to become imbalanced and weak. The result of the continued imbalance results in chronic back pain, disc herniations, disc bulging, and/or degenerative joint conditions.
What happens is that the muscles around the pelvis become tight on one side and lengthened on the other, essentially playing tug of war with the bones. This then hikes one leg up; seeming like a leg length discrepancy. Then when you workout in this imbalance, the hiked leg (i.e. shorter leg) takes majority of the load, thus strengthening one side of the body more than the other. So now, we have more of a problem to unfix.... but lets start with the pelvis first - since this is the hub.
Here is a series of exercises to get your body moving symmetrical and out of imbalance....

Good info. Just had a serious disc herniation and been strugling with sciatica the last half year.
The pelvis accutally went down on the problem side. Making the leg longer on that side. I think its normalizing as the condition is improving, but I will pay attention to it. Never had one leg longer than the other before.
I found walking, and trying to not provoce more pain, and totally not sitting, as useful. Some streches might have helped, but honestly, the big improvements came when I didn't do so much actively to heal, and just walked as long as I could.
