Pelvic pain is assessed for the cause and treated accordingly.
We can use the usual physiotherapeutic modalities such as
ultrasound, interferential, acupuncture and tens for pain and
muscle relaxation. Biofeedback can be used to teach how to
contract, stretch and relax the pelvic floor muscles.
Stretching & homework are an integral part of the treatment.
We look at the local joints and muscles and use exercise,
stretching and specific massage techniques if appropriate.
Many times men have the same constant contraction, increased
tone or "muscle guarding" seen in patients following motor
vehicle accidents with bad back or other muscle problems.
