Dealing with SI joint issues?

I'd be doing longer distances and climbing more hills if it weren't for an ongoing problem with my left sacroiliac joint. I've been to a physical therapist, who said the joint is hypermobile and gave me an SI belt to hold things in place. And then I went to a chiropractor, who said the joint is HYPOmobile and needs to be adjusted/stretched to regain some movement. Talk about your conflicting feedback! The problem isn't bad while I'm spinning easily. It gets worse when I try to climb seated and put a lot of torque on the pedals.

Has anyone else experienced this? And, if so, were you able to have it treated (or self-treat it) successfully? Thanks in advance for your input!
