🧑‍💻 Male Pelvic Pain Webinar 🧑‍💻⁠
⁠
Join us on Monday, February 27, 2023 from 7-8 pm (includes Q&A) 🗓⁠
⁠
One in three men report to have experienced some form of pelvic pain in their life. Often, this pain is diagnosed as “chronic prostatitis” and treated with antibiotics with varied results. This traditional approach has been questioned as current research has shown that there are a variety of reasons why men suffer from pain in their pelvic region. (1)⁠
⁠
Join Sean, a physiotherapist who focuses on pelvic floor health, for a discussion on different types of pelvic pain and what some of the sources may be. We will discuss how your body, mind, and relationships all contribute to pain in your pelvis and discuss available treatments to help alleviate this pain and enhance your quality of life. ⁠
⁠
Register by visiting the link in our Linktree (see bio)!⁠

For a lot of people, the function of the pelvic fl For a lot of people, the function of the pelvic floor is not well understood. If asked to contract the pelvic floor muscles, the majority of people fail to engage the correct muscles. A healthy pelvic floor needs to be able to contract and to relax when necessary and be strong enough to oppose the pressure coming from the internal forces pushing downward (intra-abdominal pressure). ⁠
⁠
Pelvic floor rehabilitation aims to help clients properly recruit, strengthen and optimize their pelvic floor through methods such as verbal, manual, and proprioceptive feedback, real-time ultrasound, habit re-training and education, and customized exercise programs.⁠
⁠
Common conditions treated include:⁠
⁠
🔹leaking/stress urinary incontinence⁠
🔹urgency/over-active bladder⁠
🔹painful bladder/Interstitial Cystitis⁠
🔹bowel control concerns/constipation⁠
🔹nocturia (frequent urination at night)⁠
🔹pelvic organ prolapse⁠
🔹pain with intercourse (anal or vaginal) ⁠
🔹contact/vulvar vestibulodynia or vulvar vestibulitis syndrome (VVS)⁠
🔹coccydynia (painful tailbone)⁠
🔹prostate health/post-prostatectomy care; 🔹incontinence/prostatitis/prostatodynia⁠
🔹pubis symphysis dysfunction (PSD)/SIJ dysfunction⁠
🔹diastasis rectus abdominus (DRA)⁠

These simple exercises are great to do anywhere - These simple exercises are great to do anywhere - on the road, at home, or with us at the clinic. And if you’re looking for a challenge, add resistance bands into the mix. 💪

Speaking of resistance bands — did you know we have our own resistance bands?! 🤔 You can grab our high quality bands and tote with three different resistances at the front desk.

⁠
OAB tends to be due to pelvic floor tension, which sometimes presents itself as pain at the perineum (the area between the testicles and the anus), lower abdomen, and genitals, as well as general tension at the pelvis and hips. ⁠
⁠
The physiotherapy treatment approach for this would include behaviour training around using the bathroom, as well as teaching the client how to relax their pelvic floor through hands on treatment and home exercises.⁠
