Re: Re: twisted/rotated pelvis ?

[Guest guest]

how did you find out that it contributed to your vulvar pain? I didn't think that the two related till now. But if I was always off aligned all my life, then why just four years ago I supposedly got VV. I've also read on here, quite some time ago now that if you took the birth control pill for a short period, that could a contributing factor along yeast infection med. I have experienced yeast med. and shortly before VV I battled a UTI and have heard that could also have a role in it

Hi All, Beth,

Chelle asked me to pipe in on this subject.

I have held this opinion for years and have stated it regularly in the

past on this site.

When the pelvis and scarum are asymmetrical, the muscles of the pelvic

floor cannot keep normal resting tone and as such, will harbor trigger

points and pain. The longer they stay tight, the more they pull the

pelvic and sacrum out of allignment.

Finding a practitoner who knows how to align the bones without

manipulation is of paramount importance to affecting a cure. For this

reason I put together a course called " M3 No Man's Land " " The all

external treatment of Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome. " And, it is designed

so that male as well as female Physical Therapists can correct the

problems and reverse the disease.

The first course is bening held at my clinic in Willoughby Ohio the last

weekend in September and the Ohio Physical Therapy Board has approved the

course giving it 21 CEUs credit. If any of you have therapists who want

to learn this very integrated approach to correcting this problem have

them go to the website www.tomocklerpt.com and click on the seminar link.

There they can read a complete course description for M1, M2 and M3 and

even download the registration form to sign up. The Manual is 160 pages

long and Dee Troll is writing the Foreword for the introduction of the

book.
