Do you have any of these problems? Are they disrupting your life or have traditional treatments felt incomplete?

•    Pelvic pain and dysfunction
•    Fibromyalgia
•    Lymphedema
•    Mastectomy or radiation scars
•    Vulvodynia
•    Sacral/coccygeal pain
•    Painful fibrotic breasts
•    C-section, hysterectomy, episiotomy scars
•    Incontinence, urinary frequency/urgency
•    Cosmetic surgery problems
•    Menstrual problems
•    Digestive or elimination problems
•    Pregnancy pain/Concern about structural implications of birthing
•    Infertility
•    Painful intercourse
•    Unresolved back or neck pain

These problems may be caused by fascial (connective tissue) restrictions in the pelvic cavity or breast area which create enormous pressures on organs, nerves, and blood vessels.  Decreased strength, decreased mobility, pain in the area, and often referred pain to other areas of the body may be alleviated with Myofascial Release.  Many times, even depressed mood, chronic headaches, neck and back pain may be resolved with Myofascial Release to the pelvic area and/or breasts.

Kathleen Troust, DPT will help relieve your body of these restrictions, teach you self-treatment techniques, and help you with muscular re-education to strengthen weakened areas.
