Pelvic pain

Pelvic pain is a common health issue that can affect people of all genders. Pelvic floor disorders impact roughly 2 in 5 females and 1 in 5 males globally [3-6].

Urinary incontinence affects 3 in 5 women (increasing to 4 in 5 for women over 70 years old) and 2 in 5 men over the age of 64 [7,8]. 

Busy lifestyles can provoke organs and structures to be displaced or change in tension distribution in the body, affecting physical, emotional, sexual, cognitive, and behavioural well-being. 

**Chronic pelvic pain (over 6 months in women, 3 in men) often overlaps with other health issues like fibromyalgia, migraines, sleep problems, mood disorders, cognitive impairment, worsening pain and disability. 

Pelvic pain during menopause: This is a phase transition where you just reach your potential wisdom. While sometimes, can bring physical and emotional changes, the hormonal re-balance of the menopause can lead to pelvic bowl pain.

During perimenopause and post menopause, fluctuating hormone levels, particularly the decline in ostrogen, can significantly impact the pelvic floor.  It is common to have discomfort in your pelvic floor, but it is not normal to have pain during intercourse, neither is it usual to suffer organ displacements  (e.g. rectal, bladder or uterine) or experince leaking.

Leaking urine when coughing, sneezing, running or lifting a child should not be the norm when there are tools to avoid it!

Releasing the fascia in the pelvic bowl will increase the blood flow and elasticity of the tissues, helping the organs to be held secure in the pelvic bowl.

Finding the right treatment plan may help you to regain your quality of life. It is always better to act promptly rather than seeing the consequences when is too late!
