Take First Step Toward Feeling Together
Pelvic pain is deeply personal, and let’s be honest, it is not always easy to talk about. Our pelvic pain treatment Calgary helps on understanding your symptoms, improve pelvic floor control, reduce tension, support core stability, and help you move through daily life with better comfort and confidence.
Our Genesis Physiotherapy team delivers pelvic pain treatment that is skilled, individualized, and conducted in an environment of genuine compassion and respect, where every patient feels safe and supported throughout their care.
It is a group of layered muscles, ligaments, and connective tissue anchored within the bowl of the pelvis. It connects to the pubic bone at the front, the tailbone at the back, and the sitting bones on either side, forming a hammock-like base that supports your pelvic organs and works alongside your core, hip, and breathing muscles every day.
Pelvic floor dysfunction falls into two broad categories, and both require very different approaches to treatment:
Because you cannot see your pelvic floor, you often do not realize it has been stretched, weakened, or injured until symptoms affect your daily life. Both types of dysfunction are treatable, and at Genesis Physiotherapy, our physiotherapists work with you in a supportive way to address your questions, concerns, and treatment options across the full spectrum of pelvic floor conditions.
Genesis Physiotherapy supports a wide range of pelvic health concerns that affect bladder control, bowel function, sexual health, pregnancy recovery, and daily comfort.
Pelvic floor physiotherapy can help with urine leakage during coughing, laughing, sneezing, running, or lifting, as well as sudden urgency, frequent urination, and nighttime bathroom trips.
Treatment supports better bowel control, reduced urgency, improved emptying, and healthier pelvic floor relaxation to ease constipation and straining.
When pelvic floor muscles stay too tight, it can become difficult to fully empty the bladder or bowel. Physiotherapy helps improve coordination, relaxation, and control.
Persistent pain in the pelvis, lower abdomen, perineum, hips, inner thighs, or lower back may be linked to pelvic floor tension, trigger points, or muscle overactivity.
Pelvic physiotherapy may help reduce bladder-related pelvic discomfort, urgency, frequency, and muscle tension that can affect daily activity and quality of life.
Ongoing pelvic pain from endometriosis can cause the pelvic muscles to tighten protectively. Treatment focuses on reducing tension, improving mobility, and supporting comfort.
Common during and after pregnancy, these conditions can cause pain around the pelvis, hips, lower back, and pubic area. Physiotherapy helps improve stability, strength, and movement.
Care may support symptoms such as pelvic heaviness, pressure, bulging, bladder or bowel difficulty, diastasis recti, back pain, and safe return to exercise after childbirth.
Physiotherapy can support men with chronic prostatitis-like pelvic pain, pelvic floor dysfunction, urinary leakage after prostate surgery, and confidence with daily activities.
Pelvic floor treatment may help with painful intercourse, involuntary muscle tightening, reduced pelvic floor control, erectile concerns, and discomfort affecting intimacy.
Treatment may help reduce burning, stinging, irritation, sitting pain, tailbone discomfort, and pelvic muscle tension linked to daily movement or previous injury.
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) alters the pain signals travelling to the brain and provides meaningful relief for some patients with chronic pelvic pain.
Bladder and bowel retraining programs at Genesis Physiotherapy address this pattern through gradual, supported increases in the interval between bathroom trips, strategies for controlling urgency without rushing, and education on complete emptying techniques.
Neural downregulation approaches, including guided breathing, mindfulness strategies, and cognitive behavioural approaches, change the brain's response to pain signals, reducing perceived pain levels and supporting the recovery of normal pelvic floor function.
Poor posture, particularly the forward head and slumped thoracic posture of desk work and infant care, loads the pelvic floor differently than optimal alignment and contributes to the perpetuation of pelvic symptoms.
Your physiotherapist reviews your pelvic symptoms, lifestyle, work demands, posture, core function, pelvic floor strength, coordination, tension, trigger points, and movement patterns to identify what may be contributing to your pain or dysfunction.
Biofeedback helps you learn whether you are contracting and relaxing the correct muscles. It provides real-time visual or sound-based feedback, making it easier to improve pelvic floor control during sitting, standing, lying down, and daily activities.
When pelvic muscles are very weak, electrical stimulation may be used to help them activate correctly. As muscle function improves, strengthening exercises are gradually added.
Soft tissue mobilization and trigger point therapy directed at the pelvic floor muscles, hip muscles, and surrounding structures address the muscular tension and fascial restriction that contribute to both pelvic pain and functional pelvic floor dysfunction.
