Women’s Pelvic Health

A heathly pelvis is the cornerstone to women’s health and wellbeing and yet so many of us are impacted by painful conditions linked to our pelvic area that cause pain, discomfort and limits our capacity to live life in the way we want.

The good news is there are really effective ways of radically improving the health of our pelvic region, including myofascial release therapy (more information below) which has proven to be extremely effective in addressing a range of pelvic health conditions such as frequent urination, painful sex, prolapsed uterus and pelvic inflammatory disease.

All these conditions have a significant impact on womens overall health, vitality and quality of life, causing discomfort and pain and limiting our daily life. Women’s pelvic health is directly impacted by factors such as childbirth, surgery, ageing, and trauma, which all lead to pelvic floor dysfunction.

 

Myofascial Release Therapy (MFR)

Myofascial Release Therapy works directly on the pelvic floor, which is the group of. muscles and tissues supporting the bladder, uterus, and rectum. Through a process of gentle yet sustained pressure on the connective tissues, myofascial release therapy can release and heal many forms of pelvic dysfunction, thereby restoring the health and vitality we all need and deserve, especially as we age.

I take a personalized approach to myofascial release therapy, ensuring that each women’s pelvic health is deeply understood. I work gently and respectfully whilst effectively targeting the pelvic floor region, releasing pain and discomfort and restoring ease and wellbeing.
