Pelvic Pain

Are You On The Lookout For "Pelvic Pain Treatment" In The Marin and Sonoma Counties Area?

A Message From Marci Silverberg, The Pelvic Health Specialist:

If you responded “Yes” to any of these questions, you can take comfort in knowing that you’ve come to the right place.

We understand your concerns, and we’re here to provide you with a long-term, natural solution to address these issues without resorting to medications or surgery.

Numerous postpartum women endure unnecessary pelvic pain due to receiving misleading advice, such as:

Being told to "rest for six weeks and then resume regular activities," which often leads to prolonged struggles even after weeks, months, or years.
Being assured that pelvic pain, abdominal separation, and bladder control issues are "normal" after childbirth and just a part of aging.
Encouragement to rely solely on pills for relief, without addressing the underlying issues.
Believing that medicine, surgery, or enduring the pain are the only available options.

In truth:

Merely resting does not address the root cause of pelvic pain. Temporary relief may occur, but once you become active again, the pain, leakage, and other postpartum symptoms persist.
While pelvic pain is common, it should not be considered the optimal or acceptable state of health.
Pain medication can be addictive, hazardous, and cause additional problems for your body.
Surgery is not the sole solution for pelvic pain, despite it being the only option typically presented.

Let’s aim to find safer and more effective ways to alleviate pelvic pain and improve postpartum health.

The process of deciding how to address pelvic pain can be exceedingly perplexing. You’ve probably encountered well-meaning advice and various options, such as:

With so many choices available, it’s natural to feel overwhelmed and uncertain about making the right decision. You might find yourself wondering about the consequences of making the wrong choice.

Feeling stuck when it comes to resolving your pelvic pain is entirely normal.

This uncertainty may lead you to put off taking action for days, months, or even years, thereby prolonging your discomfort and preventing you from embracing the life you desire. We empathize with your predicament, and our goal is to support you in taking that vital first step towards finding the relief you need!

Selecting the appropriate provider for pelvic pain treatment is crucial.

Failure to do so may result in unnecessary surgery or reliance on addictive painkillers indefinitely.

Opting for the “least-invasive” and most natural treatment is absolutely essential to effectively stop pelvic pain and prevent its recurrence.

To achieve this, it is essential to address not only the pain itself but also to have a provider who is dedicated to identifying the root cause of the pelvic pain. By doing so, you can attain a permanent solution to your problems, ensuring long-lasting relief.

At Pelvic Path Physical Therapy, We Have Devised A Comprehensive 3-Step Process For Pelvic Pain Treatment, Ensuring That It Remains A Thing Of The Past.

STEP #1 - YOUR STORY MATTERS TO US

We understand the frustrations that often accompany the medical system, where appointments can involve lengthy waiting periods, only to be met with rushed consultations that leave you wondering what just transpired.

Unfortunately, many physical therapy clinics follow a similar pattern. They lack attentiveness, operate at a fast pace, and their physical therapists may not have the time to address all of your concerns or provide comprehensive assistance.

That’s why our first and foremost step is to listen attentively to your unique story.

Having worked with numerous individuals grappling with pelvic pain, we recognize that every person is different. Each has a distinct body, medical history, and type of pain they experience.

Hence, our initial focus is on engaging in an open and empathetic conversation with you, allowing you ample time to share your pelvic pain journey. This approach enables us to gain a comprehensive understanding of your situation. We aim to grasp not only how your pelvic pain originated but also how it presently impacts your life.

We recognize the profound transformations our bodies undergo during pregnancy and postpartum phases. Hence, we place emphasis on addressing various aspects, including the neck, back, diaphragm, core, pelvic floor, pelvis, posture, strength, and overall body usage to achieve a full recovery. We firmly believe that the solution goes far beyond merely prescribing Kegel exercises, as a holistic approach is essential for lasting results.

STEP #2 - IDENTIFYING THE ROOT CAUSE OF PELVIC PAIN

You might have received a medical diagnosis or found a term online to describe your condition. Perhaps your doctor provided it after conducting tests. In some instances, you might have been advised to rest, take medication, or wait for improvement.

While these approaches may offer temporary relief, they fail to address the underlying cause of the issue.

It’s essential to recognize that each person’s pelvic pain is unique, and the reasons behind it vary significantly.

At Pelvic Path, our primary objective is to pinpoint the original cause of your pelvic pain to ensure that it not only subsides but remains absent in the long term.

We understand that you might feel uncertain or skeptical about physical therapy as a treatment for your pelvic pain. If you find yourself in this position, don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We welcome your call, as we would love to discuss your concerns and determine if we are the best fit for addressing your needs!

STEP #3 - ELIMINATING PELVIC PAIN AND PREVENTING RECURRENCE

This is the stage where significant transformations take place. We craft a personalized pelvic pain treatment plan that empowers you to:

…Reengage in exercise, including running and jumping, without the fear of pain, stiffness, or bladder control issues resurfacing.

…Effortlessly play with your kids, lift, and carry them without experiencing any problems.

…Regain a sense of strength, confidence, and even rediscover your sense of sensuality as your body heals from Diastasis Recti/Abdominal Separation, and fully restores its core strength.

Our most successful clients are those who are motivated and eager to reclaim their healthy lifestyle, even if they currently feel stuck.

Marci Silverberg, MPT, PPCES, Owner and Founder

What People Say About Pelvic Path Physical Therapy

Had the pleasure of seeing Marci for pelvic floor therapy after the birth of my first child. Wonderful person to work with. Professional, caring, informative and overall well-rounded care. She does way more than pelvic work too. Definitely recommend her to other moms or anyone who can use some PT

I highly recommend Marci. She is a responsive, knowledgeable, reliable, and a caring provider whose specialty is pelvic floor. I had 4 visits with her - 2 in my third trimester and 2 postpartum, - and she helped a great deal to alleviate some of the tight back symptoms during pregnancy as well as to start getting back to pre-pregnancy exercise after birth. Marci also offers occasional free classes - look them up, very helpful to learn how to adjust posture and exercise for better labor and postpartum recovery. Marci is filling the gap that your standard OB care creates making health care for expectant mothers more comprehensive vs. just weight/blood pressure, etc. standard template OB checks. Thank you, Marci!

I am very impressed with Marcie's knowledge and her followup. When I was reaching out for PT help Marcie was the only one who responded to me! It was also great not to have to worry about remembering my therapy exercises by having to take notes during the therapy sessions. So it is really nice to have the notes later so one can focus on the therapy lessons and have these notes sent by Marcie shortly after our sessions to then practice on ones own by having her outstanding follow up notes. Plus all our time was spent on working out. I highly recommend Marcie. She also leaves time in the beginning and end of each session to check in with you to see how you benefited from her exercises, any questions you may still have, and find out what worked best, and then find out about other issues one is having that need to be to addressed. At the end of each season she reviews what we have done and then checks in to see if your needs were met and then, what is needed for the next session. She is a companionate and outstanding therapist with great communication skills!
