Endometriosis is a chronic condition where tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus, leading to pain, inflammation, and potential fertility issues. Physiotherapy offers a holistic approach to managing these symptoms:
- Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation: Endometriosis can lead to pelvic floor muscle dysfunction. Physiotherapists employ exercises, biofeedback, and manual therapy to relax and strengthen these muscles, alleviating pain and improving function.
- Manual Therapy & Scar Mobilization: Techniques like myofascial release and visceral mobilization address adhesions and scar tissue, enhancing tissue mobility and reducing discomfort.
- Breathing & Relaxation Techniques: Stress can exacerbate endometriosis symptoms. Incorporating diaphragmatic breathing and mindfulness helps in managing stress and reducing muscle tension.
- Postural Education: Correcting posture and movement patterns can minimize strain on affected tissues, reducing pain and improving daily function. B
- Pre and Post-Surgical Rehabilitation: Physiotherapy prepares the body for surgery and aids in recovery, focusing on restoring mobility, strength, and function.
