PT helps in treatment of vulvodynia pain
Rehab Private Practice Alert, August 3, 2005
A New York-based physical therapy practice is having success treating vulvodynia pain in its patients with the use of therapy, reports WNBC-TV.
Vulvodynia, which causes severe pain in the pelvic area of women, is caused by pelvic muscles constantly tightening.
But Beyond Basics Physical Therapy is having patients with such conditions do special exercises for a half-hour, three times per week to help ease the pain.
The therapy includes internal and external massages, trigger point release, realigning back ligaments and joints, all designed to strengthen lower back, abdominal and pelvic muscles.
