Chronic pain, muscle tension, and limited mobility can significantly impact your quality of life. At Beyond Movement Performance and Physio, we offer a powerful combination of dry needling and soft tissue work to help you achieve lasting relief and regain optimal movement.

What is Dry Needling?
Dry needling is a technique where a physical therapist inserts thin needles into specific trigger points in your muscles. These trigger points are tight, irritable areas that can cause pain and dysfunction. The needles help to deactivate these trigger points, leading to:

• Reduced pain
• Improved flexibility
• Increased range of motion
• Faster healing

What is Soft Tissue Work?
Soft tissue work encompasses various manual therapy techniques applied to muscles, fascia (connective tissue), and tendons. This can include:

• Massage: Promotes relaxation, improves circulation, and reduces muscle tension.
• Myofascial release: Targets fascia restrictions to improve flexibility and range of motion.
• Trigger point therapy: Applies direct pressure or tools to deactivate trigger points and alleviate pain.

Contact us to schedule an appointment and discover how dry needling and soft tissue work can help you achieve lasting relief and reach your full potential.
 

Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy: Overview and Benefits
Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy (PFPT) is a specialized form of therapy designed to address issues related to the pelvic floor muscles. These muscles support vital organs such as the bladder, bowel, and reproductive organs, and play a key role in urinary, bowel, and sexual function. PFPT focuses on strengthening, relaxing, and retraining these muscles to restore function and alleviate discomfort.

PFPT is useful for a wide range of conditions, including:

• Urinary Incontinence: Helps manage both stress and urge incontinence by improving bladder control.
• Pelvic Pain: Relieves chronic pain in the pelvic region caused by muscle tightness or dysfunction.
• Postpartum Recovery: Assists in healing after childbirth, addressing issues like prolapse, urinary incontinence, and pelvic pain.
• Prolapse: Aids in strengthening pelvic muscles to support organs that have dropped due to weakened pelvic floor muscles.
• Constipation: Improves bowel function by addressing muscle coordination issues.
• Sexual Dysfunction: Treats pain during intercourse or difficulty with arousal and orgasm, often caused by pelvic muscle dysfunction.
• Prevention and Education: Helps individuals maintain pelvic floor health to prevent future complications, especially during pregnancy, aging, or after surgery.

A licensed pelvic floor physical therapist will use a combination of manual therapy, exercises, biofeedback, and patient education to tailor treatment for individual needs, offering a non-invasive and holistic approach to pelvic health.
