Holistic Pelvic Care™
Holistic Pelvic Care™ was developed by Tami Lynn Kent, a womyn's health physical therapist, author, elder mother, and wise womyn. Holistic Pelvic Care™ is an integration of physical and energetic tools designed to assess and restore balance to the female pelvic bowl.
HPC is for womyn of all ages to address pelvic symptoms and enhance physical and energetic flow in the womb, ovaries, and entire pelvic bowl. These techniques were pioneered by Tami, based on her extensive experience assisting womyn on their healing journeys, informed by her perspective as an energy-sensitive.
Tami brings not only her knowledge and experience, but deep insight and respect for the sacredness of the female body.
This work is subtle and direct, profound and effective. It is a combination of internal vaginal massage, breath work, somatic directed attention, and guided visualizations.
Through this work, we can reclaim the sacred space that many of us have learned to vacate and ignore. We can increase our awareness and sensation, find and strengthen our root connection, and deepen our relationship to our wild feminine inner landscape.
Holistic Pelvic Care™ is truly holistic, engaging us through our bodies, hearts, minds, and souls, and empowering us to be active participants in our own healing journey. Tami's teaching emphasizes the importance of being trauma-informed and sensitive to the stories and emotions held within this sacred part of the body.
Your pacing and boundaries are honored every step of the way.
With the help of these healing tools that Tami Kent has gifted the world, we can address a plethora of womyn's issues that we've been told to ignore, accept, do more Kegels, or have surgery to rectify. I have experienced profound healing from Holistic Pelvic Care™ and continue to witness others shift and resolve things that were thought to be beyond help.
I hope to see this work reach far and wide and become a part of womyn's health care in every season of a womyn's life.
There is self-care that accompanies this work, helping us maintain health and flow in our pelvic bowl. As we do our self-care massage, we can stay in communication with what our body is telling us, root into groundedness, and clear stagnation, congestion, and accumulated emotions and stress.
And we can work with Tami's visualization and meditation tools to clear, balance, and bless our creative center. I am excited to share and teach these practices to as many womyn as possible, as they are such an integral part of this work.
Who benefits from Holistic Pelvic Care™?
1. Any womyn who wants to deepen their relationship with their female body and creative center. By connecting with your root, clearing pelvic energies, and restoring balance and flow, you can awaken your feminine power, reignite the fire of your creativity, and know yourself more deeply. This work is an opportunity to listen to your body's inner wisdom.
2. Any womyn with pelvic concerns, including menstrual imbalances, low libido, menopausal symptoms, pelvic pain, or incontinence. Womyn struggling with fertility issues, the effects of cancer treatments, and recovery from a hysterectomy can find HPC supportive and an effective complement to other therapies.
3. For postpartum recovery (any time after 6-8 weeks post birth) HPC is a wonderful treatment for new mothers designed to revitalize your pelvic floor after the birth of your baby. It can help to resolve post-partum symptoms such as pelvic pain, discomfort, or muscle weakness, and greatly assists overall healing. Womyn who have experienced trauma during childbirth find that pelvic clearing and balancing support their recovery physically and emotionally. Note that even cesarean birth can have an effect on the pelvic floor muscles, and HPC can support the healing process.
4. Womyn who are experiencing low back or hip pain that has been difficult to treat through other means. If massage, chiropractic, and other bodywork methods haven't been effective or haven't given lasting results, working on the muscles and fascia internally can sometimes make a big difference in resolving pain originating from trigger points in the pelvic region.
5. If you've experienced a miscarriage or abortion, Holistic Pelvic Care™ can nourish you in a time of loss and honor the spirit that touched your womb. Regardless of how long ago, healing is accessible through this gentle and powerful work.
