Infertility

Supporting Infertility Through Pelvic Health Physical Therapy

Infertility affects millions of individuals and couples each year, yet the emotional and physical journey is often deeply personal and complex. While medical treatments like IVF and hormone therapy are well-known options, many people don’t realize that physical therapy—especially pelvic floor therapy—can also play a supportive role in addressing certain causes of infertility.

At our clinic, we offer specialized physical therapy to help improve pelvic function, enhance reproductive health, and support your fertility journey with compassion and care.

How Can Physical Therapy Help with Infertility?

Pelvic health physical therapy focuses on restoring optimal function to the muscles, tissues, nerves, and structures of the pelvis—areas that can directly impact reproductive health and fertility. When these systems are imbalanced or restricted, it can interfere with blood flow, hormone regulation, and organ function.

Here’s how physical therapy can support fertility:

• Improve blood flow to the reproductive organs (ovaries, uterus, fallopian tubes), which supports healthy tissue and hormone balance.

• Release restrictions and adhesions caused by surgeries, infections, or conditions like endometriosis or pelvic inflammatory disease.

• Normalize pelvic floor muscle function, especially if muscles are overly tight or imbalanced, which can impact the uterus and reproductive environment.

• Reduce inflammation and improve lymphatic drainage, helping the body regulate hormones more effectively.

• Address stress and tension, which are known to affect fertility and cycle regularity.

• Support alignment and posture, which can help improve nervous system communication to reproductive organs.

Who Can Benefit from Fertility-Focused Physical Therapy?

This therapy is ideal for individuals who are:

• Preparing for or currently undergoing fertility treatments like IVF or IUI

• Experiencing unexplained infertility

• Diagnosed with endometriosis, PCOS, or other reproductive conditions

• Post-surgical (such as after laparoscopy or C-section)

• Struggling with painful periods, irregular cycles, or pelvic pain

• Seeking a natural, body-based approach to optimize their fertility

What to Expect in Your Treatment

Our fertility-focused physical therapy sessions begin with a comprehensive evaluation that includes:

• A discussion of your fertility journey and medical history

• Assessment of pelvic alignment, muscle tone, mobility, and posture

• Gentle, hands-on techniques to release restrictions and improve function

• Education on breathing, body awareness, and self-care routines

• A customized home program to support progress outside the clinic

With consistent care, many individuals notice improved cycle regularity, reduced pelvic pain, enhanced emotional well-being, and better outcomes when paired with fertility treatments.
