Internal Pelvic Release Work

Internal Pelvic Release Work (IPRW) is a holistic approach that focuses on relieving tension in the pelvic area, enhancing pelvic floor function, and promoting overall well-being. This method combines gentle yet deliberate internal release techniques with external bodywork, recognising the interconnectedness of the body.

By addressing both soft tissues and ligaments that support the bladder, bowel, and reproductive organs, IPRW aims to create space and comfort within the soft tissues of the pelvis commonly referred to as the ‘soft pelvis’ as opposed to the bony pelvis, helping you reconnect with your body.

  • Pelvic tension can arise from injury, posture, trauma, surgery, or lifestyle factors, and may restrict movement, flow, and comfort while holding emotional or physical memory. Internal Pelvic Release Work (IPRW) can support women who are:

    • Preparing for birth, to encourage relaxation and space in the soft pelvis

    • Healing after childbirth

    • Seeking insight into why a vaginal birth was difficult or not possible

    • Recovering from harm or trauma

    • Living with painful scars from surgery or birth

    • Experiencing pelvic pain, painful or absent sex, painful periods, or deep hip pain

    • Managing pelvic floor concerns such as prolapse, incontinence, or an overactive pelvic floor

    • Curious about pelvic health and deepening body awareness

    A typical 2-hour session includes:

    • Personal history discussion to understand your story, experiences, and goals

    • Whole-body assessment of posture, pelvic alignment, and related musculoskeletal patterns

    • Gentle external bodywork to rebalance and prepare the pelvis

    • Clear informed consent before any internal work
