What is Mercier Therapy?
Mercier therapy is a soft tissue visceral manipulative therapy technique used to help restore the health and general well-being within the female pelvis and abdominal viscera.
This gentle and non-invasive technique was created to help you to reconnect to your own wellness and to allow your pelvis and abdomen, a highly emotional space, to re-open to healing and balance.
It is done over a period of 6 weeks with 6 individual sessions at 60 minutes per session. This visceral manipulative technique is done abdominally and requires NO vaginal work.
Mercier Therapy may help with the following:
- Natural fertility preparation or to complement IVF, IUI, etc.
- Regulate menstrual cycle and ovulation.
- Increases uterine blood flow and lining.
- Improves the success of IVF, IUI and other technologies.
- Postpartum/C-section recovery.
- Uterine fibroids
- Pelvic pain
- Endometriosis
- PCOS
- Pelvic scarring from previous trauma or surgery (laparoscopy, laparotomy, D&C, LEEP, cystocele or rectocele repair)
Prepare or recover from surgery
Depending on the upcoming procedure, Mercier Therapy can be used to help prepare the pelvic organs and surrounding structures for a smoother surgery. And like other post-surgical rehabilitations, Mercier Therapy can assist in reducing internal trauma and scar tissue for a healthier recovery. Six treatments prior and six treatments post procedure/surgery is the optimal protocol.
Note: You must be 4-6 weeks post-surgical and have clearance from your physician to start the recovery therapy.
