“ Get Your Life Back Pain Free! ” Understanding Chronic Pelvic Pain
It’s improved my MS gait! “I’ve had treatment at OPT, Inc. to relieve myofascial pain from Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and for an unrelated rare condition that makes it extremely painful to sit. The trigger point dry needling and hands on manual therapy OPT, Inc. utilized were pivotal in relieving the MS pain and the pain while sitting. As an added bonus it’s improved my MS gait. I have no doubt the friendly OPT, Inc staff have expertise in pain relief.” - Sharon K.
Many experience chronic pelvic pain but have no known cause, causing frustration and even depression. Chronic pelvic pain may be associated with other pelvic conditions including: • Interstitial cystitis (IC) or painful bladder syndrome • Endometriosis • Chronic bladder infections • Pelvic adhesions or scar tissue from a prior abdominal surgery • Dysmenorrhea, or painful menstrual cramps • Levator Ani Syndrome which causes increased tension of the pelvic floor Working with your urologist, a specially trained physical therapist can perform soft tissue mobilization of pelvic floor muscles as well as relaxation techniques, pelvic floor muscle exercises and suggest exercises to improve poor posture. We can teach you how to correctly do a Kegel, which will help strengthen the pelvic muscles and help to prevent stress incontinence, or leakage with coughing, laughing, sneezing, etc.
