How do H&D's Pelvic Health & Wellness Physical Therapists treat Chronic Pelvic Pain?

  • With biofeedback technology we assess muscle tension and strength.

  • With our hands, externally and internally, we can assess and release where the muscle is most tight (locations called trigger points).

  • We also prescribe exercises targeted to relax and strengthen the muscles surrounding the pelvis.

  • We coordinate with our Director of Yoga and Yoga Therapist to prescribe Yoga postures and breathing techniques for overall relaxation and to manage the mental and emotional stress that comes from having chronic pain.
