Heal Pelvic Pain: The Proven Stretching, Strengthening, and Nutrition Program for Relieving Pain, Incontinence,& I.B.S, and Other Symptoms Without Surgery

Just wanted to thank everyone who left a positive review here... your success stories and advice was way more helpful to me than the countless doctors I saw! I wanted to add to more hope and help with my own story.The best thing this book did for me was give me hope and introduced me to the idea that all of my discomfort (and I mean bladder, urethra, and anal discomfort) can simply be tight, shortened muscles... just like tight neck muscles cause neck pain and tight back muscles cause back pain. It made sense to me because the pain began after a very stressful time. Still, just in case, I cut

I only finished reading this book but I'll try to comeback again and report my progressCoz I feel like many of the reviews here weren't based on a complete assessment as to theProcess this book has to offer I'm suffering from my condition which appeared first as post void dribblingand progressed to other urinary problems ( , after voiding an incomplete feeling and need to urinate again slight leakage dull pain at the perineum etc )I believed in my heart always that it may have been related to a traumatic episode I went through which caused me to contract my PC musclesIn an excessive way .

For someone who suffers from chronic pelvic pain, it was good to find a book that has so much information on the subject. I wish I would have found this a few years ago before I spent so much time getting injections in the wrong areas and trying tons of medications. I'm taking physical therapy for this now but it would have been great to know this was out there when I thought this was all caused from back pain.This book taught me a lot more about my anatomy - my therapist did too, but this is in print so I can keep referring back to it as needed. And it tells you about all of the various possi

A life savor, I should say. I was never diagnosed officially but I've read for 3 years about all the symptoms I was presenting. I thought I had IC, pudental neuralgia or a very bad...bad menopause! Medications made me feel so crappy and gave me bad side effects (losing my memory). So I downloaded the Ebook and I started reading in the end of May 2015. I am not a reader but understood very quickly what was my problem because it is well written and well illustrated. I had a very tense pelvic floor. I started to do the routine but because I had neck injury, I went to see a pelvic floor PT to help

I bought this book as a last ditch effort to try to help the excruciating pelvic/vaginal pain I'd been battling for over a year from pelvic floor disorder. I had the constant feeling of a UTI with negative labs. Physical therapy that provided some relief for short periods of time, and medication that did nothing whatsoever, had me feeling hopeless and depressed that I'd ever get better.Being in the medical field, I have done extensive research on ways to find relief, and none seemed to be the definitive answer.Then I purchased this book.I did the first part of the exercises for relaxation.

This book came to me via a recommendation from my urologist and physical therapist, neither of who have actually read it. I've been dealing with chronic pain for about 20 years, and in that time, I've done a lot to educate myself. As a result, I already knew much of what I found in the book. If the reader has recently been diagnosed and knows little or nothing about pelvic pain, the book could prove to be insightful.The first couple of chapters are excellent. Amy Stein does a good job of explaining what pelvic pain is, which conditions make up pelvic pain syndromes, and how the conditions feed

I have been a sufferer of pelvic pain for about 2.5 years now. I have gone through about 6 months of professional physical therapy (which reduced my symptoms by about 30%). I was looking for a way to handle this problem myself, as the physical therapy requires me to burn "sick time" three times a week, and it's not exactly cheap under my insurance plan. So, I purchased three books on Pelvic pain up here on Amazon. This one is clearly the best written, and the most comprehensive. This book covers all the bases including stretching, trigger point massage, exercise, and diet. The only thing I wou

About 9 months ago I began dealing with a digestive issue that later would be identified as being caused by pelvic floor dysfunction. Although I worked with two wonderful doctors and a physical therapist this book is an excellent supplement. Most of the information in this book is exactly what my physical therapist recommended - especially diet, breathing, posture, and stress reduction so I believe that the information in this book to be medically accurate.I downloaded the kindle version of this book. The book has 12 chapters plus appendixes with additional resources and information. The chapt
