Pelvic therapy focuses specifically on helping patients regain strength in the muscles, tendons, and ligaments that make up the pelvic floor. The pelvic region supports the core and is crucial for certain activities of daily living. When this area becomes affected by an injury, condition, or procedure, it can make daily life increasingly more difficult.
Our Lompoc pelvic therapy specialists will conduct a physical examination and assess your medical history to determine which pelvic therapy treatment method(s) will be best for your specific needs. As stated by the International Society for Sexual Medicine, pelvic therapy is often prescribed as part of a comprehensive treatment plan, alongside other medical specialists.
If you are seeking pelvic therapy during pregnancy or after giving birth, we will also work closely with your doctors at our Lompoc Obstetrics and Gynecology (OB/GYN) department and Lompoc Birth Center to determine best pre- and post-partum treatments for your symptoms and overall wellbeing. Your pelvic rehabilitation practitioners will also consult with your OB/GYN if a women’s health-related issue is causing your pelvic floor discomfort.
Certain forms of pelvic therapy that your specialist may provide include postural exercises, myofascial exercises, manual therapy, diaphragmatic breathing exercises, biofeedback, pelvic exercises, and relaxation techniques. Pelvic therapy has been known to help people remedy health issues and reach personal goals, such as returning to a sport, starting a family, or going through the day without incontinence.
You don’t have to live with pelvic pain or discomfort. There are a multitude of different reasons why someone may be experiencing pelvic issues, and our pelvic rehabilitation team pairs advanced techniques with compassionate, comprehensive care to help both men and women alike with their pelvic and abdominal health.
