Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Osteopaths are challenged in their everyday practices to assess and treat patients affected by pelvic floor disorders. Recurring referral diagnoses may be related to functional disorders (urinary incontinence, pelvic pain, infertility), hormonal physiology (puberty, menstrual cycle, pregnancy, menopause), or related to consequences associated with specific surgical and/or infectious disease processes. The intrapelvic soft tissues are continuously stimulated and mobilized due to respiratory, urinary, genital, and intestinal functions; similarly, the urogenital organs are in constant motion. The role of the osteopath is to collectively restore pelvic soft tissue mobility to ensure proper pelvic physiology.This book is based on the most common pelvic disorders encountered in clinical practice, and provides osteopaths with key treatments to aid with patient care and recovery. The authors present a variety of internal and external pelvic manipulations, including comprehensive soft tissue, neural, and vascular techniques. This book is meant to be instructional: technique descriptions are reinforced with diagrams and pictures illustrating the manipulations.
