Treatment Methods
Pelvic Therapy utilizes a variety of methods to help strengthen and heal your pelvic floor. The pelvis is tied to your neurological, muscular, and other systems. As a result, we engage various senses to support your health. Below are a few items we might utilize in your treatment.
Each treatment plan is specialized to the individual.
Dry Needling
Dry needling encompasses the insertion of solid filament, non-injectate needles into, alongside or around muscles, nerves or connective tissues with or without mechanical and/or electrical stimulation for the management of pain and dysfunction in neuromusculoskeletal conditions " - PPHC LLC
Stretching
You might not think stretching is important, but without it you run the risk of injury and further damage. Stretching keeps the muscles flexible, strong, and healthy, and we need that flexibility to maintain strength and plyability. Without it, the muscles shorten and become tight.
Exercises
Maintaining pelvic health is an ongoing pursuit. We design a specialized exercise routine to help you regain and maintain control over your pelvic floor muscles. These exercises workout your core body and engage your neurological responses, as everythign is tied together when we talk about your pelvis.
Toolbox
In addition to a physical exam, recommended stretches and exercises, we often use various tools that we refer to as your Pelvic Health Toolbox. We will discuss each of them items if they are necessary and how to use them to help you on your path to pelvic health.
