Internal Pelvic Release
Bodywork that connects you to the soft tissues of the internal pelvis to support in creating softness and space.
Internal Pelvic Release Work
A woman’s pelvis is magnificent and sacred, supporting her bladder, bowel and reproductive organs, through multitude of ligaments, fascia and muscles.
As in any other area of the body these soft tissues can hold tension.
This tension can be conscious or unconscious. It can stem from injuries, postural habits, trauma, surgery, hobby or lifestyle choices, which can restrict movement, flow and expansion of space.
Tension in soft tissues can hold memories and emotions.
During an internal pelvic release session tension can be identified and invited to release with tender direct touch and space can be created.
Who would benefit from Internal Pelvic Release Work?
Are you a woman who is:
Preparing for birth
Healing from a traumatic birth experience
Has painful scars from their birth
Who wants to understand why their birth didn’t “go as planned” or ended in a caesarean
Who is confused about what they felt in their labour or why their laboured stalled
Who has been harmed by another
Who experiences painful sex, possibly due to vaginismus or vulvodynia
Who feel their pelvic floor is either weak or tight/hypertonic
Or who are just curious about knowing more about their pelvis and body…
Then Internal Pelvic Release Work is for you!
What’s involved in Internal Pelvic Release Work?
- a discussion on pelvic anatomy to support a woman’s knowledge of her pelvic space
- an exploration and gentle release of tension in the soft tissue connections through both external and internal bodywork
- guidance with how to continue with further release work by the woman or with her partner’s support
Body Oriented Birth Preparation
Directed Breathing
Employing the breath appropriately will amplify any bodywork. It enables presence and focus, tension release and an increase of circulation and function to pelvis.
Working with the Pelvic Floor
- Uterine Ligaments – “The Pelvic Clock Exercise” is a way to connect with the uterine ligaments that attach into the cervix and mastering release of tension in these powerful fibres
- Pelvic Floor Muscles – “The Sploosh Exercise is a way to let go of pelvic floor tension after every contraction in labour
- Bum Jiggling – Jiggling is a highly effective and recommended way to release tension, synchronise body systems, prepare for birth, make more space for the baby and activate the parasympathetic nervous system. It is also a highly enjoyable and easy to learn practice for couples preparing for birth
Psoas Release
The psoas is the body’s flight/fight/freeze muscle and it passes through the pelvis. When holding tension, the psoas muscles can influence a baby’s position in the womb, and generally affect pelvic balance.
Pelvic Balancing
When the pelvis is in a state of balance, all pelvic organs & tissues have effective nerve and blood supply.
Pelvic Balancing is a gentle practice, based on Ortho-bionomy principles, to bring the pelvis into a state of balance.
Scar Release Work
Caesarean section scars and vaginal scars benefit enormously from gentle release work. Tender, deliberate touch brings about a softening of scars, so improving blood flow and nervous innervation.
