HOLISTIC PELVIC CARE™
Unique Care
Our bodies are holistic in nature, each part connected to the next. We believe in personalized medicine and spend time with our patients to ensure they are educated, empowered, and cared for in their health journey. Here at the clinic Dr. Zoë Kelly Linkletter offers Holistic Pelvic Care™ which brings awareness to the pelvic bowl with gentle tending and honoring of this area. It is a holistic form of preventative medicine and it is a way to reconnect with creativity and vibrance, come home to the body, and move through old patterns that are no longer serving us while treating and preventing certain pelvic conditions.
Holistic Pelvic Care™
Holistic Pelvic Care™ is a physical and energetic practice created by Tami Lynn Kent, a renowned pelvic floor therapist, who after many years treating pelvic dysfunction and pain, designed a framework for a holistic approach for treating and preventing pelvic conditions. Dr. Zoë uses Holistic Pelvic Care™ as part of a comprehensive plan to support certain pelvic conditions.
Holistic Pelvic Care attends to the physical and energetic alignment of the pelvic bowl and may help with
muscle tone
energetic vitality
pelvic pain
urinary incontinence
pain with sex
lack of sensation
changes that happen after pregnancy
From an energetic perspective, many consider the womb (or uterus) the source of creativity that brings life or creation into the world. Sadly, we often lose connection with this part of the body through societal programming, stories of shame or discomfort, painful or traumatic experiences, and/or a lack of knowledge about the basic structure and function of the muscles, organs, and sensitive tissues that create the pelvic bowl of the pelvis.
The practice of pelvic care brings awareness to the pelvic bowl with gentle tending and honoring of this area. It is a holistic form of preventative medicine and it is a way to reconnect with creativity and vibrance, come home to the body, and move through old patterns that are no longer serving us.
Pelvic care sessions include:
Assessment of the physical and energetic alignment of the pelvic anatomy with a specific concern in mind or as a holistic form of preventative wellness.
Utilization of manual therapy techniques (including intravaginal manual therapy/massage, when appropriate) to address concerns such as pain, tension, urinary issues, changes in sexual function; assist in recovery from pregnancy, childbirth, menopause and other transformative pelvic events; and restore balance in the pelvic bowl.
Embodied encounters with the energetics of the pelvic organs through guided visualization to honor and reconnect with the beauty of the pelvic bowl.
Education on anatomy and self-tending practices to take pelvic care home.
