Some therapies we use in personalized pelvic pain therapy plans in Grand Rapids
Your pelvis is a complex structure, and there are many injuries and medical conditions that can cause pain in your pelvis. This is why our Advent Physical Therapy team offers personalized pelvic pain therapy plans in our Grand Rapids clinic.
The complex structure of your pelvis is necessary because it has several important jobs. For one thing, this structure of bones, muscles, ligaments and tendons provides an attachment point for your upper leg bones. The pelvis also contains muscles that help you maintain an upright posture when sitting, walking and running. Furthermore, your pelvic bones and muscles protect important organs in the body. These organs include reproductive organs, the urinary bladder and the lower digestive tract.
To help you treat pain in this important structure, our team uses a variety of physical therapies. One therapy we may use to treat your pelvic pain is postural muscle strengthening exercises. Diaphragmatic exercises are another therapy method commonly used to treat pelvic issues. Also, manual and massage therapy techniques may be included in treatment plans for certain pelvic issues.
Some of the pelvic problems that a plan containing these therapies may help treat include:
- Postpartum conditions
- Constipation
- Endometriosis
- Urinary tract issues
- Abdominal surgery recovery
