Osteopathy can help with these Pelvic Floor complaints

For: People who have a history of pelvic pain or are experiencing:

  • pain with intercourse
  • frequent urination
  • painful bowel movements
  • coccyx pain
  • feeling of “tightness” or “tension” in the pelvic floor

Why? Looking at pelvic floor tone and function can be so helpful to build a full picture of your pelvic health.
Chronic pain can mean we hold tension in our pelvic floor which can increasing tone, causing pain and dysfunction.
