Yes! I signed up for the three month program and I am in my second day. Already I am understanding and getting results
@@xefirah great to hear! Keep it up!
Finally doctors who know what they are talking about. I’ve been struggling for over a year with cpps. I don’t have insurance so I’ve been paying out of pocket for my urologist over 7k. Numerous rounds of antibiotics, cat scans, etc etc. I brought to my doctors attention last visit could it be my pelvic floor. He said absolutely not and he told me it’s caused by my anxiety. The guy had no clue what he was talking about. I found you guys two weeks ago I’ve been stretching everyday and 80 percent of my pain is gone. I plan on buying your 12 week program finally on my way to recovery. This past year has been so depressing. Thank you so much !!
Well the anxiety causes the pelvic floor tension what did the Dr think anxiety does
@@Truerealism747 Yeah this whole experience has taught me that urologists are completely undertrained for pelvic floor/prostate. Definitely best to let them confirm that you don't have a mass/blockage/infection and then once they confirm you don't, move on to pelvic muscle expertise.
@@zippedmouthgaming5637 yeah ime suffering fybromyalgia symptoms now shoulders from stress if it I think
I never had any problems. I was in the best shape of my life, weight-lifted for hours everyday and i alsi did edging with masturbation for hours everyday and enjoyed every minute of it. I was highly sensitive down there and had no problems. I also ate extremely clean. I was so happy.
Then I had varicose vein surgery 18 months ago. Right after thay surgery, i started having symptoms and pains all over my body. Erectile Dysfunction, loss of sensitivity in my penis, testicle pain, right hip tightness, tingling and numbness in my upper left arm, tennis elbow in my right arm, bone pain in my feet, ankles and knees.
I have been to countless doctors in the 2 best hospitals in Chicago, i am on my 4th urologist and they STILL HAVE NO IDEA WHAT Caused these symptoms and how to fix them.
They just gave me Cialis! And told me to try pelvic floor therapy. I scoffed at both.
I figured if surgery caused this then only surgery can fix this. But there is no surgery they can do. And i am doubtful that simply physical therapy will restore me back to 100% especially with my penis.
@@MilkyWayGalaxyyhow are you feeling man?
I really think this guy has finally explained it as emotional muscle. Doctor bri and this guy have finally solved it. I understand more than most how much this information needs too be screamed from the roof tops. Please 🙏🥺 get this info out to people. It can save lives. I have been looking at a bowl of pills for the past week. Thankfully I saw this 😥
Mine was rooted in childhood trauma from muscle armoring. Thankfully 7 months of pelvic PT cured me. The pain was so bad I had a su*c*de planned. I'll always be thankful to that physical therapist. 🙏
Hi. So glad to hear that you are all better. Enjoy!

what were your symptoms?
@@mackosajt86 Excruciating pelvic pain that kept worsening. Could barely use the bathroom. Sex became painful. I had the hypertonic variety. P.T. cured me thank God.
Thank you for explaining this . I could never figure out what could have caused this and now I feel like I have some answers…finally!
Thank you for this review, which I suppose isnt "new" to me but so very important to be reminded about. Stress and anxiety is certainly a key root cause for me - typically my flare ups happen after a major stressor/trauma which then leads to a physical symptom (not always PPS) which then can make me more anxious or even fall into depression, and so the mind-body cycle continues - but also starting to see the other factors and how they play in. There is also some solace in knowing that I've been there before and things always change. But good to get your useful advise (including your relaxation videos). With gratitude.
I am so glad this was helpful!
This guy is spot on..very informative..Thanks!!👍
Thank you for making these videos. Not enough people talk about this. I never knew about pelvic floor dysfunction until it happened to me after giving birth. I never realized I had already had a lot of these other root causes before I even got pregnant. Pelvic floor therapy has helped me tremendously! If someone is watching this and thinking there’s no way out, please don’t give up! Find a pelvic floor therapist!!! I know in the US my insurance didn’t pay for it, which is a shame, BUT It’s worth every penny when it comes to being able to live your life pain free! 🙏🏻
I LOVE what you're saying here, thank you for sharing!!! I'm so glad you've found relief. ❤️ Yes, there is help and there is hope -- don't give up! Find a great professional who you can work with in-person, and use videos (such as mine) for at-home support between sessions.
My insurance paid everything except a $10 co pay
How long did u have to do pelvic floor therapy for
Liked the description in this video
I also like Dr Bri and do her pelvic floor relax
I am 70 with PFD I totally have many symptoms fell on my Perineum as a young ice skater and also weakened pelvic floor muscles due to OAB and a chest infection aged 60
All contributed
Then I overworked my pelvic muscles !
Recovering from hypertension now but muscles still weak also
I do all of what you talk about and have good times and backwards days
I only get a bit better with rest, so all this really makes sense to me. I'm always psychologically stressed out even though I don't feel it. Thanks for this!
I am glad this video resonated with you. Physical AND mental rest is vital for the mind and body. Take care!
Me too I lay down it goes away
Thank you for this video. Im glad I'm not alone.
Thank you for elaboration on this topic.
Wow this might be the best video I've seen on cpps . He hit every root cause on the button. All those roots causes I did too myself and would never think I would get something like cpps , but I am so fuckin happy to say I overcame this because I figured out for myself how to heal my mind and body . I am 100 percent healed and you will too just never give up!
Thank you so much for your kind words. So glad to hear that you are healed. Enjoy your wonderful life.

Can you pls tell me about your symptoms and how you overcame it?
Thank you so much for this video. First time I have heard so much helpful information! (My PF physiotherapist didn’t even tell me any of this!)
You're so welcome!
I’ve had the same pelvic floor dysfunction for 15 years and have had so much trouble over the years finding solutions. For a while I just accepted the fact, and while I still live in acceptance, I am actually really glad I found you guys. I started the program this week. I’ve learned a lot but I still have a lot more to learn. It’s actually very comforting to know that ya’ll have come out of it yourselves and are speaking from experience
Hi there. So glad you found our program. You can do this. Reach out with any questions and good luck.

What were your symptoms ?
How did the program work for you? 2months update?
@@plumpporcupine34 I had to put my efforts on pause. I had a kidney stone, then had to get surgery to break it up along with a stent. I'm hoping to start back up after this is over, maybe sometime mid May.
I've used too much tension with a penis extender. Now in pain 24/7 in the perineum (pelvic floor muscles). The doc did ultrasound but found nothing, says everything is fine, prescribed anti inflammatory. I can't take this anymore. please help guys
I have had flair up of my cpps over the last 15 years. I totally agree with his recommendations. I have a wonderful local therapist who helps with manual trigger point release which I also feel is an important part of a successful approach.
Hi Eric. Thank you for sharing, sorry to hear that you have been dealing with this for 15 years. So glad to hear that you have something that helps with your symptoms. You can do this!

I was at a point a couldn't even work no more couldn't even sit or walk it was a really dark time for me all the docters where saying yeah you're super healthy nothing wrong with you... Then I saw a video about stretching I did the stretches for 2 days and 70% of the symptoms where gone after years of having this I know for a fact for me that it is stress and tension I get from every day work gym etc that I store it in my pelvic floor if I have a stressful morning at work my bladder and back are killing me it clenchs so hard and then when it's 1 houre later and iam more calm no stress it's all gone... I stretch every day for 30 minutes try to eat super clean every day I've quitted caffeine but it seems to not bother me instead of alcohol and fast food makes it also worse iam at a point I could work and go to the gym again sometimes it flares up a bit but it's nothing like how it was no joke i was suicidal at some point for al the people reading this try to reduce stress and stretch every day better times are coming I promise
Thank you for the advices,it was very useful,i learnt a lot from this video,you are a really good man!!!!
Mine was caused by my narcissistic ex. She put me through a hell of anxiety and confusion that made me so tense that I couldn’t relax for years.
I have it too did you recover from it
Stress is the culprit. Have to learn to relax. Breathe all the way down to your tail bone. I do some exercises when I’m sitting down. I lift my feet off the floor a few inches and move my legs around. It stretches those waist and pelvic muscles. And I also go on RUclips and follow other exercises. Im 90% better from last year. I thought it was some sort of infection. But it’s not. Stress kills. Pray, meditate and stay calm as you can will definitely help
You may feel pain in your stomach, chest, back, shoulders and neck to. It’s all interconnected to them pelvic muscle
I've got it in my shoulders now had pelvic pain 25 years have you cured this
I dealt with a covert narcissist family member and went no contact just before this started 😢
Safety is the message
Fantastic explanation! Thank you. So calming and clear.
I am dealing with this now. This really helped me to understand. I have scoliosis and one leg is slightly longer. I also do spin classes and pulled my psoas muscle.. I think it lent a hand to what I am experiencing now. I thought UTI, but nope.. I have an appt with a Pelvic Floor Therapist in a week.

Good video. I have had this terrible condition for almost 3 years now. I have tried many things including your courses and others, professional PT, meditation, breathing exercises, stretches, exercises, medication and of course the useless antibiotics. I am conviced that there is a major psycholoical factor involved. Sometimes I go several weeks without any pain but it always comes back, often without any obvious physical reason. I beleive that something subconscious is going on. I do have a history of other anxiety induced conditions including 5 years of medically unexplained heart palpitations that I no longer have.
I currently have so much anxiety and palpitations that keep me up at night that began with this condition. It's been 8 months of hell with days of progress but it's been a horrible cycle of fear, reinjury, now anxiety and pain returning.
You will get over this, I promise. The mind plays a big part in healing. Healing the mind often helps with healing the body. It might take time; it might not be an easy journey, but it's worth it. These pelvic floor meditations can help rb.gy/uizms7~ Leila from Vibrant Support
@@vibrantpelvichealth Thanks but that link does not work.
I have had this 3 years also
How you doing now? I'm personally very familiar with what you just described. Since '21, I've been a pretty bad hypochondriac and my latest fixation is my urological system. I know I've been clenching my pelvic floor, which is irritating my bladder flow, which then worries me and on the vicious cycle goes. I had a long period of fixation upon my own heart palpatations and ectopic beats. I discovered and repeatedly confirmed via ER visits, that I was literally creating the ectopic beats thru my anxiety response. Terrible cycle. Once I managed to escape that particular loop, my mind switched back to the urological stuff. 🤦♂️ I wish you well.
I wish someone had told me this 2 years ago... I am recovering but there is not enough information around about this topic. The amount of stress and depression this can cause is unbearable sometimes. And most of your relatives and friends do not understand, it's taboo. And it takes months to find the right doctors and treatments, everything without health insurance. I hope research about this develops more in the future.
I hear you about the stress and emotional strain that these issues can cause. The good news is that pelvic health awareness is growing... slowly but surely!

I 100% feel for you i am in the same position, I’ve been recovering for almost a year now almost 100% I am not really bothered by it but for me to get to this point I had to go through so much, 2 ER doctors told me I was crazy, the emotional distress it caused was unbearable. Thank god I found a proper physician and the right physio! Just keep up with your stretches! Months would go by and I would see little improvement and it would make it hard to stay motivated but one week you are just going to see crazy results and it will just keep getting better from there!
There is a growing amount of research on the mind-body connection (even going back to the fascinating results of Dr Sarno on chronic pain), and this includes PPS. Unfortunately most doctors are not aware of it and/or not interested. Not to sound like a conspiracist (contemporary health care can be very very helpful) but honestly when its a stress-associated mind-body thing there is no money to be made in the health care system from such a diagnoses. Meditation, eating well, relaxation, movement exercise etc...are pretty much free. These days its seems the stress-associated physical problems are just growing and growing, understandable. All the best to you and be kind to yourself..
I’m a male and I understand what you’re going through. I had gone to 3 different hospitals twice to Cook County Hospital. They said I was crazy. Once to University of Chicago, and they said I didn’t have an STD obviously because I hadn’t done anything, and once to Northwestern. Northwestern said there was nothing wrong, but the urologist/pelvic specialist said that people our age put a lot of stress in the pelvic muscles and she prescribed me som muscle relaxers and physical therapy. My insurance didn’t cover therapy at the time so I never went. 3 years later I fell from some rocks on an island and felt that pelvic floor strain again and also had been working out. My legs feel a lot weaker that other parts of my body especially when I walk down the stairs because I’m working seated most of the day or maybe there’s another injury that caused it. I also learned that candida can cause inflammation and tightness to the pelvic floor which causes sexual reproductive organs to contract badly. It’s caused me a lot of depression, but my friend said to get to the root of the problem and fix it.
what a great video. i wish i knew this years ago. now looking at best exercises to help and heal....
So glad you found our videos and they are helping you. Thanks for sharing.

I was misdiagnosed for over a year. It started with left testicle pain, Constipation and frequency. I was prescribed pills and pain killers for months and months. Endless blood work, urine tests, ultrasound, mri, varicocele embolization, vasectomy reversal and the pain was still there. They once Urologist said I had Epididymitis... fast forward a month a week ago another urologist said I had non bacterial prostatitis. He referraled me to a Pelvic floor Physical therapist. I started pelvic floor inner release a month ago. And I found Dr. BRI AND YOUR STRETCHING 3 weeks ago. I don't know what's going to happen but I'm doing them 2 × a day. 🤞🙏. I going 100%.
How are you doing now
@@v5q211 i started Pelvic floor therapy and it's going ok so far🙏🤞. Another problem that I'm having is stomach problems because of all the unnecessary antibiotics. I got an ulcer from it, and now I'm having terrible stomach pain, bloating, Constipation. I'm scheduled to get a colonoscopy and Endoscopy 2 weeks from now. Be careful with antibiotics. If they are not working, it might be a fungal or bacteria problem. Urologist are only giving pills for STI'S. Western medicine is Destroying a lot of people every year. I think they know what the problem is , but they rather make money with your sickness. It's very sad.
@@rafaelthemotivator how are you feeling now are you ok
how are you now mate?
Stress control fear anxiety for me :( dam I haven't breathed in 10 years and I'm crazy 😒. The second half of this video was amazing. Never seen this much awareness from someone on the subject. Also I dont feel like I'm being sold anything. Thanks
I have felt helpless for 10 years, I cannot describe the torture I have gone through. It's insane how crazy 😒 I have become. This is it. I'm gonna do this, where is link too brain washing program. I need too rewrite reactions etc. Thinking etc. I understand my body and mind extremely well as I have isolated this entire 10 years. Most likely this started from misophonia :( Im a very complicated case, I'll most likely go completely insane. Hard too believe I am still alive too tell you the easy truth. Taking ones own life is anything but cowardly. I'm alive cause I was too afraid 😟 to do it.

I really wish that more professionals like yourself would send doctors , and urologists worldwide this information.
An average of 900 days of suffering for up to 15 percent of men is unacceptable. When the suicide figures are as high as they are , and a urologist telling you they basically can’t help you .
People with the extreme symptoms can’t control the mental level of torture it gives them . It’s all fine and dandy to talk about being aware of stress and tightness and helping to control it . But extreme discomfort causes actual real stress .
Having this information provided to other avenues where knowledge is lacking would help many men . Stop men taking thier own lives .
I don’t mean to come across as harsh or putting this on you . But I’d appreciate immensely if I got this information out there more .
I'm doing my best to spread awareness through public avenues like my RUclips channel, podcast, and social media. I agree, this is a very serious problem and MORE awareness is needed even WITHIN the professional community. Thanks for your comment, and please know that you have power as well. Sharing this video, for example, with your healthcare provider is a small step you can take that can ultimately make a big impact!
I think you are right. But I can accept the fact that many "traditional" doctors will not or cannot deal with it. There just isnt any money in it (sorry to sound cynical, but that is the western health care model). While many doctors may be compassionate and professional enough to address it, to be honest the overall problem of "mind body" physical symptoms dates back to ancient Greece. Somatic disorders, hypervigilance and "psychogenic" conditions have been known for centuries (I'm not saying the pain and symptoms are not real...but that its often fundamentally an issue of "learned" neuropathways...which can also be un-learned ). With the world the way it is these days these are only going to rise, and so totally agree this needs to be out there more, but can speak with experience that many sufferers of any mind-body simply refuse to believe that there is not an underlying physical disease or damage that can be medically fixed (so the problem is not just with doctors). Take care

@@jordanbanda4744 are you 100% symptom free yet?
Thank you for the video! My pelvic pain has been killing me for the past 2 months, I have tried to meditate/warm bath/hot shower/ heating pad/ changing diet/ stretches and it is very difficult to overcome this pain. One thing that I have discovered is that fear/anxiety makes my pelvic floor more tense and that leads to more pain. I have started going to PT for pelvic floor and she is having difficulty locating which muscle is causing pain, after second sessions she still did not have success finding that muscle. That is when I started having more pain because I was anxious that nobody could help me. I am still having pain and I am not pain free, I am trying my best to find a solution. I have been making a research about nerves because I feel like I have inability to relax my muscles in pelvic floor which causes symptoms such as: constipation, painful urination or pain after urination/slight discomfort after sexual activity, burning feeling in my scrotum ( burning feeling varies from day to day, sometimes burns few mintures or sometimes hours , or worst is full day). It has been impacting my life and my goal as I am unable to distract myself from pain. Please somebody help

I am writing this in order to share and help.
I have CPPS since 25yo I am now 35.
At the age of 30 I got diagnosed with general anxiety disorder so the fight or flight response that is being told on this video is on point.
On the PT session I had multiple trigger points inside the pelvic floor.
So the only solution is these steps.
Cognitive behavioral therapy to manage stress and thoughts.
Stretching
Pelvic wand to release your internal pelvic trigger points.
Diaphragm breathing.
Mindfulness meditation.
Prostate shockwave therapy.
And patience!
If you are not fully committed you are not going to make it.
Be persistent and fully committed.
IF you have ED be patient.
My best wishes to you all.
Hi there. Thank you so much for sharing your experience. It has clearly been a long road for. you, however, it appears that you have put together an excellent program for yourself. It also sounds as though you have been successful on your healing journey, that is excellent. Thanks again for sharing and we hope you enjoy your life.

@@TransformPelvicHealth I was not consistent on my stretching so I am currently having back Tight pelvis and ED I am back to start again with your help from the videos.
Thank you for your response and your time to create all these helpful videos.
I maybe the minority here. I think my problems started with huge stress that I had over the past year at work and at home. I have been doing a lot of edging to overcome the stress and one day I was left with a very strange feeling after a longer edging session. That resolved in constant pressure in my perineum and rectum mainly. I am not sure now if its the pelvic floor muscles or prostate but its frustrating. It completely ruined my sexual but also daily life. Now I found this channel and try to follow the stretching routine since a week. Btw procto and uro examinations showed no issues. Now waiting for gastro examination. I think the root cause is clear after watching this video. Edging is bad. It destroys also the dopamine system and further causes other mental problems. Its a vicious cycle.
Amazing. I need this so bad
So glad you are finding our videos helpful. Best of luck.

Nice☺️
Thank you for this.. I don’t know how I’m dealing with this since 2016… How can I even work when I sit in so much pain… I’m so stuck and really with I can trade bodies with someone who don’t feel pain… thanks for the video… I wish depression wasn’t so apart of this chronic pelvic pain… sorry for venting.. I just have no one to speak to about this. :/
I am sorry to hear that. I recommend seeing a pelvic floor PT for an evaluation. In the meantime, you can check my playlist on healing pelvic pain bit.ly/MalePainPlaylist
I have ulcerative proctitis and pelvic floor dysfunction. Has anyone else dealt and treated both? Appreciate you all☀️
16 months for me. I've been through physical therapy and now I'm seeing a pelvic floor specialist. I've been through two urologists who said I have pelvic floor dysfunction. And one gave me a prostate exam.Urinalysis showed no issues. I had my appendix removed and had two CT scans which showed no big issues in the pelvic area. I had a lower back MRI with no big issues and am X ray. Had a PSA level run as well.I've been dealing with perineum pain, urinary pain,bladder ache and frequency, issues with weak stream/ejaculation and constipation. I though I was going to need a catheter several times. My genitals were very sensitive to touch when it started and hurt from wearing clothes. I always have an easier time after therapy sessions with urinating though. My lower back has been killing me for several years as well, and I'm buying a latex mattress to see if that helps. My job is incredibly stressful and makes be want to die. I've caught myself pulling up on my pelvic floor from anxiety. I had a several week episode years ago and it went away, but this has been going on for 16 months and started at the same time I had covid. It's been a journey, and I still worry that I may have a serious disease.
I had the same crap as you man and it was all anxiety related because when you tense up from the pain and when the whole thing was caused from being to tense, it’s a VICOUS CYCLE, try to meditate and just get out of that flight or fight response, it will be hard but for me at least it was all caused by just years of tension, crazy to think about it but it all makes sense, I wanted to punch my doctor in the face at first when he said, it could be from stress, keep in mind I was 18! But turns out he was right, I was always a super anxious person and once I found out the loop I kept going in, I finally healed
Mine surfaced right after I had covid too
@@sheshe8648 do you mind describing your symptoms of how it happened, and is it still ongoing?
@@Moonless6491 I experienced lower stomach pain first.. then i started getting a tingling sensation in my genitals for weeks, I was extremely concerned doing ultrasounds and all, being told everything seems normal. My urologist even said the constant tingling is normal in men and "is like a sore throat" Ive tested negative for all the STD tests they gave and all, and my urologist keeps downplaying it because im not in pain. While im not in pain the inflammation is extremely uncomfortable, which makes it annoying and the tingling continues, he finally recommended me to a pelvic floor therapist but im annoyed atp
How long did you have it I have should pain now and heal pain
I wonder if Dr Sarnos research would help with this also! Thank you! I feel the control factor is a big thing for me and not creating proper space /time for relaxation l.

Great video. Thank you for sharing this info. For those who may have gone through the program- how much is the 12 week program for men?
So glad that it was helpful. The price is listed on the program page, here: www.vibrantpelvichealth.com/overcome-pelvic-pain-for-men // Just a secret tip, if you do the Masterclass (which is in its own right really helpful), you can also get a special offer by passing a test at the end of it: www.vibrantpelvichealth.com/male-pelvic-pain-masterclass
I was doing kegels for no reason - no professional advice - for months, excessively. I felt totally normal nov 6 2021. By Nov 7, my life changed. Literally every time I urinate, the base of my shaft and the midline feel sore, like a muscular type sore. And almost something “stuck” in my urethra. It lasts for about an hour then subsides. I don’t have trouble voiding but my streams seems to be a little weaker than it used to be - but I don’t know for sure. I’ve been to the ER several times, a urologist, had a back mri, CT scan, bladder ultrasounds (empty fully), urine tests blood tests, all normal. I have been diagnosed with PFD and have been seeing a pelvic floor therapist. Objectively my muscles are getting looser but I still feel this nagging symptom after I urinate. I have major anxiety and depression. This has brought me to an all time low and almost have brought me to despair. I just want my life back. I would give anything to feel normal again. I’ve almost had a nervous breakdown several times.

@@braydenluna5383 I got into a good therapist - finally! I understand what’s going on in my body and why. I know what I can do to correct it. I should see noticeable improvement in 3 months. Don’t give up hope and fight the good fight. You got this!
Anxiety was through the roof when I went to the doc and he said it was prostatitis did blood work and an ultrasound prostate was fine PSA was fine did two prostate exam withing the last three weeks both my doctor and the urologist said my prostate feels normal but now I'm feeling pain in the lower back and thighs. 😔😔😔 to be honest I was suicidal but I'm trying my best to not entertain those thoughts
First, I am glad to hear all your results came back normal. Second, I am glad you are exploring healing options, and I am grateful you found this video. Please know that you are not alone in this journey, and that there is always hope for healing and feeling better. I encourage you to get the support of a counselor, if possible, and explore the Overcome program for men. It has wonderful resources for healing both the mind and body :) Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have questions or concerns. Best wishes !
Is it normal to flare from stretches?
I never had any problems. I was in the best shape of my life, weight-lifted for hours everyday and i alsi did edging with masturbation for hours everyday and enjoyed every minute of it. I was highly sensitive down there and had no problems. I also ate extremely clean. I was so happy.
Then I had varicose vein surgery 18 months ago. Right after thay surgery, i started having symptoms and pains all over my body. Erectile Dysfunction, loss of sensitivity in my penis, testicle pain, right hip tightness, tingling and numbness in my upper left arm, tennis elbow in my right arm, bone pain in my feet, ankles and knees.
I have been to countless doctors in the 2 best hospitals in Chicago, i am on my 4th urologist and they STILL HAVE NO IDEA WHAT Caused these symptoms and how to fix them.
They just gave me Cialis! And told me to try pelvic floor therapy. I scoffed at both.
I figured if surgery caused this then only surgery can fix this. But there is no surgery they can do. And i am doubtful that simply physical therapy will restore me back to 100% especially with my penis.
Thoughts?
Misalignment is interesting to me, and wondering if you (or others) have some advice. This recent episode started first with back pain together with nerve pain down the buttons and into leg, and while this (back pain) comes and goes I notice that when I walk that same leg (left) where this all happens/happened seems to feel off-kilter. Like its almost smaller than the other leg (it isnt). Balance is fine. But it does seem that there is something there (?). I also had a major stressor etc. before all this, and have anxiety/control issues, but as you say its not necessarily "one thing". Therapists are not available where I live (coastal Vietnam) so wondering if you have any advice or links to exercises etc. for hip/leg re-alignment? Kind regards
Yea PRI
RUclips has a great variety of hip flexor yoga routines that are so helpful & of course there are also other exercises & information videos.
ive cracked my body since i can remember and i might have not been too gentle with my self cause of my anxiety ive always felt thennwed to popp my bones i knonthe bones isnt the lroblem and cracking is a release if gas but over doing it i feel might have atrained my muscles or nerves?
What I don't understand is, why not a lot of people have this condition and a lot of people , including Doctors don't know about pelvic pain. I get so many people asking me how I got this and it's frustrating not able to tell them how. 68 years old, male.
I feel like if I have this at 42...it is only because of stress and acid in the diet...I am starting to get this sorted out. For me, it worsens from sitting rather than standing!
I love this content! Thank you so much! I would like to know if women with HYPERtonic pelvic floor without organ descent or associated risk factors can do a bit of gentle jogging or a bit of trampoline gently too? I have been looking for this information for a long time, but I cannot find it and pelvic floor professionals do not give me a clear answer.
Hi! I am not a doctor, however I think I am in a similar situation. My ginecologist told me I can do gentle jogging - I don't know about trampoline. Have you ever been visited by an ostetrician to have a pelvic floor evaluation? They can usually give advice to you. Hope you are doing well!
@@Simmin3 Hi. Thanks for your comment. Here in Quebec, doctors do not have the knowledge required to give this kind of wise advice. Perineal physiotherapists are the best to say this, but I don't get a clear answer. I was told to avoid doing this as it could make my hypertonia worse, but in another sense I'm an anxious person and a student so stressed too. Not being able to do both sports which gave me pleasure, makes me sad and bad in my body. So these sports are supposed to be good for my mental health. I knew that the bike was not ideal for people with hypertonia either? I need cardio in my life, not only yoga, breathing exercises and meditation. I would like to do both.
Claire and Catherine, great question! While I cannot dispense individualized advice, I can provide general support and let you know that light jogging or trampoline work should be fine for women with a hypertonic PF without organ descent. I encourage three things: 1) start with just a few minutes of jogging/jumping and see how it feels for you, 2) progress VERY GRADUALLY, and 3) build in 5-10 minutes for pelvic floor relaxation after each workout. Motion is lotion and movement brings JOY, so ENJOY finding ways to move your body that work for you!!!
@@vibrantpelvichealth This is a very useful answer. Thank you so much!
Thank you for the information. As far as pain goes, I don’t necessarily feel pain but mainly aching. I’ve noticed that my pelvic/lower back is aching constantly and there appears to be pressure in my testicle area. Can this also be a sign of pelvic dysfunction?
Hi there. We always recommend that you get checked out by a doctor to make sure there is nothing structurally going on that needs their attention. The symptoms that you describe are common amongst the men who go through our program. So, it is possible that your pelvic floor has something to do with your symptoms. You may want to visit a pelvic PT to receive some treatment. If you have not done so already, you may want to check out our 12 week Overcome Pelvic Pain program. Reach out any time if you need support. Best,

Hi Dr Bri is pelvic floor dysfunction be curable and restored forever??
It's possible !
Sitting too much for too long, particularly at work.
Can cpps cause blood in urine???
I was told the cause of a Pelvic Floor Crash is due to Nerve damage on the Pudendal Nerves which affects everything around it
In many cases the nerve can be compressed just like any other nerve in your body, but the root of that compression is the muscles being overly tight.
Can anyone recommend a diet that helps with reducing inflammation? I was thinking carnivore or keto or fodmap or Mediterranean? Thanks!
In general, Paleo Diet or Keto Diet, but somewhat individualized.
My Paleo Diet is:
No sugar (corn syrup, etc.)
No soy products
No gluten-bearing grains (wheat, rye, oats)
No processed meats
No dairy except for butter, cream, buttermilk
Try for lots of organic green leafy veggies.
Sugar, wheat, potatoes, white rice will all put the weight on, so eat potatoes & rice in moderation.
Eat organic foods & grassfed/finished beef whenever possible. Avoid hormones & antibiotics in meats. Avoid GMOs. Wild salmon, not farmed. Eat chicken or beef bonebroth (I make my own at home).
I sweeten with stevia powder and (occasionally) a little honey or maple syrup. I thicken sauces and gravies with tapioca starch.
I grow herbs, celery, lettuces at home in containers year-round.
Inflammation is not the problem with pelvic floor disfuntion. It's hypertonic muscles.
do you guys do actual in person visits?
I'm sorry, we don't offer in-person consultations at this time!
Is part of this feeling like those muscles are constantly contracted? I find that when I think about it I can release the contraction/tension but when I am not thinking about it, these muscles go back to being contracted and tense, which is the majority of the time.

I am really curious why there is such a disconnect between Urologists and PT’s. You would think since Urologists don’t understand what causes CPPS, then they automatically would ask a PT to see if it’s a Physical issue.
Hi there, That is a very good question. The field of CPPS is evolving and doctors are just starting to understand details about CPPS that they did not before. You can do this!

well, this video removed all my expectations on improving with working on my pelvis 2 times daily. im done.
an inflamed or enlarged prostate may also cause this problem.
True -- prostate issues, nerve injuries or irritations, birth injuries/trauma, and even bladder issues or prolapse can trigger CPPS as well.
I read somewhere (scientific medical paper) that around 95% of "chronic prostatitis" doesnt really have evidence of inflammation. Its just what doctors call it when they are unable to find anything and just say "inflamed".
Curious if low Back issues/pain cause pelvic floor dysfunction?
We have found that pelvic pain and back issues are very commonly related. It is not clear which comes first or which causes which, but there is a relationship. When we unwind one, usually the other one starts to improve as well. You can do this!

You might have excessive pelvic tension if you have excessive stress in your life; if you have urinary hesitancy/urinary frequency/ constipation; if you have a hard time breathing deep down into your pelvic floor, ribs, or belly area; if you can't feel a Kegel contraction; if Kegels make your symptoms worse..etc

Can you elaborate on what you meant by too much sex? My urogynocoligist said strong orgasms are fine and there heaviness I feel after is a sign that my pelvic floor was worked hard
The pelvic floor muscles contract and relax when orgasming or from sexual stimulation, triggered primarily by the glans and clitoris. When contracting them constantly or over-using them will lead to the formation of a muscle knot, which means they remain chronically and painfully tightened for hours, days, or even months.
Abstaining from masturbation or sex for a few days will help relax and release these muscle knots. You don't have to stop these activites entirely, but reducing the frequency of them will have a great impact on your recovery.
@@John-mj1kk Which is the correct frequency for you?
@@luchy91ca Once every week won't overload the ischiocavernosus muscles and provide enough rest.
Please reply!!😭😭 Is there any connection between pelvic floor dysfunction and primary bladder neck obstruction? Is it possible to cure primary bladder neck obstruction through physiotherapy? Please please reply 🙏🏻🙏🏻
When there is bladder neck hypertrophy, the tight/tense sphincters cause feelings of tightness when you have to pee. The tight sphincters also cause urinary frequency and a weak stream. The Overcome program may be helpful for you by managing the internal and external sphincters, and calming your nervous system. The cause and treatment of bladder neck obstruction is still not well-understood and is still being explored within the medical community. In my opinion, it's always a good idea to explore non-invasive + non-pharmacological options first.

I have vaginismus,, is this due to pelvic floor dysfunction, i have also back pain ,constipation on nd off , have a overactive bladder
Vaginismus can be associated with pelvic floor dysfunction, as well as with other issues like back pain, constipation, and overactive bladder. Pelvic floor dysfunction can contribute to muscle tension and spasms in the pelvic floor muscles, leading to pain and difficulty with vaginal penetration. It's essential to consult with a healthcare provider who can assess your symptoms and provide appropriate treatment, which may include pelvic floor physical therapy and other interventions tailored to your specific needs.

I have tried changing my diet many times and doing the typical recommend stretching exercises and relaxing exercises. Nothing yet seems to help. Very frustrating.
Hi Glen. Thank you for reaching out. I am sorry to hear that you are going through this. Yes, we totally understand how frustrating pelvic pain can be. The most important thing to keep in mind is that you CAN get better. We see men overcome pelvic muscle issues all the time. If you haven't given our 30 minute healing/stretching routine yet, I highly recommend giving it a try. Doing that routine every day for 14 days gives your body a chance to let it work. I suspect after those 14 days, you will feel a shift. Of course, it will take some time to unwind tension that has likely accumulated over years, but it is a slow and steady process.
You can do this! We are here to help 👍🏼.

Are you ok now bro how are you feeling now
I have pain in the head of the penis during self stimulation. Sometimes worse than others. Orgasm is less intense. Even though, I feel like I will have an intense orgasm, it's not intense at all. It feels like my penis tightens up close to orgasm, and am not having contractions when I cum. I have had this close to a year. Been to the urologist twice. No infection. Was put on antibiotics anyway. No difference. Was put on Cialis, no difference. So frustrated at this point. I suggested to the urologist it might be a pelvic floor issue, he agreed. He recommended pelvic stretches. Been following you, and doing the stretches you, and Michael Hodge suggest everyday for about 10 weeks now. Unfortunately, no difference. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Hey David! I know how frustrating this can be, truly I do. Stretching for 10 weeks straight is good, but ultimately, deeper shifts are a required part of healing. This is why we created the Overcome Pelvic Pain program, not only do you do progressive movement routines (each week changes and evolves for 12 weeks), but you also do mind-body practices (breathwork and rewiring meditations) to calm the nervous system and reprogram subconsciously, you also reset the gut with a cleanse, finally, you discover your root cause which could be repressed emotions/stress/relationship/work or other non-physiologically based issues. When you bring it all together, our 12 week program helps you holistically address what is going on. You can do this! It takes more than stretching.
I think Candida is linked with this
You have candida?
What is your proof?
Why isn't there a medical test that we can do to locate the problem inside of the pelvic area/floor?
Instead, we just have to make an educated guess as to what the problem is without ever knowing for certain?
Medical diagnostics for pelvic floor issues can be challenging due to the complexity of the pelvic region. While various tests and imaging studies exist, identifying the exact cause of symptoms can be elusive. Pelvic floor dysfunction is often diagnosed through a combination of medical history, physical examination, and sometimes specialized tests like pelvic floor electromyography (EMG) or imaging studies such as MRI or ultrasound.
However, these tests may not always provide a definitive answer, and healthcare professionals often use a comprehensive approach, considering various factors. Advances in medical research are continually working towards improving diagnostic methods, but due to the intricate nature of pelvic floor disorders, it can still be a nuanced process.
If you're navigating pelvic floor concerns, it's crucial to communicate openly with your healthcare provider, express your symptoms and concerns, and work collaboratively to explore diagnostic options and potential treatments. Seeing a pelvic floor PT can be a great way to get the answers you need about your pelvic floor. ~Vibrant Support
You layer out the problems we'll but it is disappointing as a young man with erectile dysfunction who is desperately seeking a 100% recovery that you and no other medical professional has much to offer in terms of a 100% sure fire cure.

It is so demoralizing how little the medical professionals know about what causes various symptoms and how to fix them. Urologist after Urologist and I STILL HAVE ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION!! SMH
I understand that dealing with erectile dysfunction can be incredibly frustrating and demoralizing. It's important to express your concerns and expectations to your healthcare providers, ensuring they are aware of the impact on your life. While a guaranteed 100% cure may not be available in every case, working closely with healthcare professionals who specialize in sexual health, considering a multidisciplinary approach, and exploring various treatment options may increase the chances of improvement.
Open communication with your healthcare team, discussing potential causes, and seeking specialists who can address your specific situation might help in finding more personalized solutions. Remember that everyone's journey is unique, and persistence in seeking answers and appropriate treatments is key. ~Vibrant Support
