EP.303/ REPLAY: Using somatic therapy to recover from chronic pelvic pain with DR tarA Morrison
Dr. Tara Morrison is Birth Trauma Specialist and Holistic Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist who specialises in whole-person care for pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond. We actually met several years ago when we were both training at the Integrative Women’s Health Institute, so it was a real pleasure to have her on the show!
Tara uses trauma-informed Somatic Pelvic Care to aid not just pain and pelvic floor dysfunction, but nervous system healing through mind-body based physical therapy tools, stress management, somatic emotional release, energy medicine, and mindful living.
In today’s episode, Tara and I talk about how she uses somatic therapy for chronic pelvic pain.
In this episode we discuss:
The development of the nervous system and how childhood experiences can cause chronic nervous system dysregulation and pelvic pain
Emotional experiences and patterns and their impact on symptoms.
Poly-vagal theory and the chronic freeze state in endometriosis and other pelvic pain conditions.
What somatic therapy is and how this mind-body approach can help heal the root of endo and other pelvic pain conditions.
How to start focusing on what feels good from a nervous system lense.
