SYMPTOMS, OSTEOPATHIC TREATMENTS, & MORE
At Nextgen Osteopathy, we understand the significant impact that pelvic pain can have on your daily life and overall well-being.

SYMPTOMS OF PELVIC PAIN:
CAUSES OF PELVIC PAIN:
Pelvic pain can manifest in various ways, including:
- Dull Aching: Persistent discomfort in the pelvic region.
- Sharp or Stabbing Pain: Intermittent bursts of intense pain.
- Difficulty with Bowel or Bladder Function: Including urinary urgency, frequency, or constipation.
Pelvic pain may arise from various musculoskeletal dysfunctions, including:
- Pelvic Misalignment: Disruptions in pelvic alignment can lead to muscle imbalances and tension, resulting in pain.
- Myofascial Trigger Points: Areas of muscle tightness or “knots” in the pelvic floor muscles can cause localised pain and discomfort.
- Pelvic Floor Dysfunction: Weakness or hypertonicity in the pelvic floor muscles can contribute to pelvic pain and dysfunction.
- Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction: Dysfunction in the sacroiliac joint, which connects the sacrum to the pelvis, can cause referred pain to the pelvic region.
OSTEOPATHIC TREATMENT OPTIONS:
TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR HEALTH:
At Nextgen Osteopathy, we offer personalised osteopathic treatment options to address pelvic pain effectively:
- Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT): Gentle hands-on techniques to address pelvic misalignments, release myofascial trigger points, and improve pelvic floor function.
- Massage Therapy: Targeted massage techniques to release tension in the muscles and fascia surrounding the pelvis, promoting relaxation and pain relief.
- Myofascial Release: Applying sustained pressure to release tension in the connective tissue surrounding muscles, alleviating pain and restoring mobility.
