Infertility Services
at Inland Pelvic Health
Infertility affects an estimated 1 in 7 to 10 couples—and that number increases with age, rising to 1 in 4 for those between 40–44 years old. At Inland Pelvic Health, we offer a holistic and evidence-based approach to infertility care. We address the mechanical, muscular, and connective tissue restrictions in the pelvis and abdomen that can interfere with conception.
Common Contributors to Infertility We Treat
Adhesions and Scar Tissue
Post-surgical scars, endometriosis, or infections can create adhesions that restrict the natural movement of pelvic organs, ligaments, and nerves. These restrictions can interfere with implantation, egg transport, and uterine positioning.
Cervical Adhesions & Positioning Issues
Scar tissue or tension at the cervix can narrow the opening, affect uterine alignment, and make it harder for sperm to reach the uterus.
Fallopian Tube Restrictions
Adhesions along the tubes can block or impede the egg’s journey to the uterus, contributing to infertility.
Uterine Wall & Ligament Restrictions
Adhesions within the uterus or its supporting ligaments can reduce flexibility and create a less hospitable environment for implantation.
Ovarian Restrictions
Tight or restricted tissues around the ovaries can impair the release of eggs or their pickup by the fallopian tubes.
Chronic Pelvic Pain & Spasms
Long-standing pain and pelvic muscle spasms can affect pelvic circulation, hormone signaling, and overall organ health, indirectly impairing fertility.
How Pelvic Therapy Supports Fertility
Our team uses specialized hands-on techniques—such as visceral mobilization and myofascial release—to improve tissue mobility, restore blood flow, and calm nerve irritation. Interventions like Dry Needling may be implemented to improve neuromodulation to the reproductive organs. These techniques have been shown in research to:
-
Reduce adhesions
-
Improve uterine and ovarian health
-
Support fallopian tube mobility
-
Promote a more optimal environment for conception
Studies have reported success rates as high as 69–71% for achieving pregnancy naturally or with assisted reproductive technology (ART) after pelvic physical therapy.
What to Expect During a Fertility Evaluation
We begin with a thorough review of your medical history and assess pelvic alignment, muscle tone, scar tissue, and organ mobility.
When appropriate, we perform an internal pelvic assessment to identify adhesions and create a targeted treatment plan.
