Physical Therapy for Endometriosis Pain
What is endometriosis?
Endometriosis occurs when tissue that is similar to tissue that lines the inside of the uterus, grows outside of the uterus. This tissue commonly forms adhesions to pelvic organs including the bowel, bladder, ureter and kidneys.
Symptoms of endometriosis include:
Debilitatingly painful periods
Excessive menstrual bleeding
Painful intercourse
Difficulty with bowel movements and urination
Abdominal bloating
Infertility
Pelvic floor PT and exercises for endometriosis.
Pelvic floor therapy aims to reduce symptoms associated with endometriosis by targeting muscle tension, joint restrictions and pelvic organ restriction that could be affected by adhesions due to endometriosis.
Pelvic floor therapists provide hand-on manual treatments, individualized exercises and discuss lifestyle modifications in order to reduce flares, manage symptoms and reduce muscle tension.
