Pelvic & Abdominal Pain
We embrace a whole person approach to resolving pain and address what is happening with the muscles, but also take into account the interconnected system of the rest of the body. The pelvic floor muscles are at the bottom of the pelvis and attach into the spine and hips. These muscles have been shown to frequently be involved in people who are experiencing pelvic pain. Our proven therapeutic techniques will help you have freedom from pain and let you enjoy everyday life to its fullest.
You Are Not Alone
Pelvic and abdominal pain is extremely common, yet has a profound impact on health and ability to enjoy basic daily activities. Pelvic pain conditions can include abdomen pain, hips, low back or sacroiliac joint, sacrum, buttocks, groin and genitals. These occur with varied severity and interruption to participate in daily activities. Regardless of how much or where your pain is causing you discomfort, we are here to help.
