The Halo Hip Weight system includes two weights plus belt with quick-release buckle. Available in 5, 8 and 10 LB weights.

Protocols

The biomechanical principle behind hip weighting is that placing a weight on a hip that is deviated forward (anterior) will cause it to rock further forward, thus activating the muscles to pull the hips back towards a more aligned position.  Because muscles will continue to react to a sustained force even after that force has been removed, wearing hip weights on the front of the anterior hip and the back of the posterior hip for 20 minutes will help to achieve a more lasting postural correction.  You can determine the side of the high hip by taking an A-P lumbar x-ray and drawing a line on the top of the sacrum; whichever side points up is the side of the high sacral base and the side of the anterior superior hip.
 
It is also possible to position the hip weights directly anterior to the abdomen (to tilt the sacrum forward – nutation – which is helpful with a retrolisthesis of L5 or a loss of the lumbar lordosis) or directly posterior to the sacral apex (to tilt the sacrum backwards – counternutation - and help a spondylolisthesis or lumbar hyperlordosis).
