Channel Title: Pelvic Empowerment Channel Description: Welcome to Pelvic Empowerment, a channel created with the intention to empower anyone and everyone living with pelvic dysfunction. I’m Tori, a doctor of physical therapy who specializes in pelvic dysfunction, which means I treat things that can go wrong around the pelvis. Pelvises and dysfunction surrounding them have been repressed for too long! At Pelvic Empowerment, no topic is too taboo, no comment is too personal, and no question is "too much information." Because, the crazy thing is… everyone has a pelvis. So let’s talk about them! Let this be a space that empowers you not only to better understand your body, but also to regain control of your health and overall wellbeing. Thank you for being here.

Please read the description for more guidance in your research and, above all else, do not give up on your body’s ability to heal 🧡 Timestamps / Table of Contents: ✩ Intro: 0:00 ✩ Chronic nonbacterial prostatitis treatment ideas: 00:43 Consider an “expressed prostatic secretions test” to formally test your prostatic fluid for bacteria that may not respond to Ciprofloxacin. If no bacteria are present, consider proper testing for a fungal infection. → 2013 study reviewed in the PSA: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3936149/ → 2018 case study of a man who suffered from chronic prostatitis symptoms for 20 years being successfully treated with an anti-fungal regimen, you can share this with your physician: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6077167/ → 2006 paper detailing how to diagnose & treat fungal infections in chronic prostatitis (your physician may be able to access the full paper if you cannot): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16930504/ If you have truly ruled out bacterial or fungal infections, consider researching more about prostatic massage as well as saw palmetto and its partnered supplements. → Learn more about prostatic massage and other treatment options here: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2374945/ → Learn more about saw palmetto, stinging nettle root extract, quercetin, and curcumin here: https://prostate.net/saw-palmetto-prostatitis-treatment/ → Pygeum bark may also be worth researching Remember that supplements, like all other drugs, have inherent risks and potential side-effects. Do your research, talk to your providers, and make safe, informed decisions about your health. Finally, remember that a pelvic floor spasm and other forms of pelvic dysfunction can mimic the symptoms of prostatitis. However, it is important to rule out true bacterial or fungal infection first because, even though treating the spasm secondary to the infection may improve some symptoms, the spasm will NOT fully dissipate until the underlying infection is treated. → Find a pelvic physical therapist near you (US directory): https://pelvicrehab.com/ Having healed from three “chronic, mysterious” conditions myself in the past (and currently being *so close* to healing from a fourth), I have a LOT of strong feelings about healing.

I don’t blame providers, nor do I think all providers share this misunderstanding of nerve healing, and I am very open to being wrong; however, I am curious to know what you think or if you’ve had any experiences that parallel mine/support this hypothesis? Of course, only share if you’re comfortable, and I do hope that this video is helpful in some way 🧡 Timestamps / Table of Contents: ✩ Intro: 0:00 ✩ Does Medicine Understand Nerve Healing?

(Pelvic PSA 4) Description: Did you know that the foods used to naturally treat diarrhea are the same foods used to naturally treat constipation? ✩ Learn more about: 🚽 How to sit on the toilet to poop: https://youtu.be/5egK-7jrEHM 💩 How to treat anal fissures: https://youtu.be/DuiteSszdxE 🌿 Easy constipation home remedy: https://youtu.be/GYGBdhDGIjQ Learn why foods high in soluble fiber can treat both diarrhea and constipation in today’s Pelvic PSA 🧡 😸 Check meowt on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pelvicempowerment/ Timestamps / Table of Contents: ✩ Intro: 0:00 ✩ Why Natural Stool Bulkers & Softeners Are The Same: 00:43 🍇 Remember that fiber ONLY exists in plant-foods. No animal-foods contain fiber, so no animal-foods can be a source of soluble or insoluble fiber. Most plant-foods contain a combination of soluble and insoluble fiber—they’re just usually richer in one type more than the other. For example, the skin of a grape is high in insoluble fiber, but the meat is high in soluble fiber. 🌾 Soluble Fibers: recall that soluble fiber DOES absorb water (think about what happens when you add water to oatmeal)—when we think of starches, we’re usually thinking of foods that are high in soluble fiber. Examples include but are not limited to: oatmeal, pasta, rice, potatoes, white breads, yams, squash, bananas, apples, and mushrooms → High soluble fiber foods are best for treating both diarrhea and constipation! However, if you are treating diarrhea, it may be even more helpful to stick to bland soluble fiber foods like bread, rice, bananas, and apples to prevent further GI irritation! ✩ Outro: 4:30 Remember, materials and content available on this channel, Pelvic Empowerment, are intended as general information only, and should not be substituted for medical advice, prescription, diagnosis, or treatment.

The Female Orgasm Survey's Instagram will officially launch on Feb. 28th, 2022! It's here, if you want to check it out: https://www.instagram.com/femaleorgasmsurvey/ If you have a vulva and want to participate, you can take the survey here (or share it with your people!): https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/6BJWNTX Thank you again, and I'll see you when I see you 🧡🍑 </video> <video> The Pitfalls Of Western & Alternative Medicine | Considerations For Navigating Either Industry Description: It is my firm belief that there are incredible healing aspects of both western and alternative medicine—I think that true “holistic” healing observes what both spaces have to offer, and chooses the appropriate interventions from either or both spaces pending on the individual who is seeking care. However, in the same way that both spaces offer wonderful interventions, they are both for-profit industries, which means they inherently have pitfalls, where money is placed above the health and safety of the consumer. ✩ Related Videos: → How I healed GERD & got off of PPIs after 10 years: https://youtu.be/CE2_N7EBX7k → Does medicine understand nerve healing? https://youtu.be/45XZ0zbciVM → On substance use & chronic pain: https://youtu.be/XuL9h-ew50Y → How I cured my chronic UTIs without antibiotics: https://youtu.be/rK566nF7iwQ → How many ways can a female orgasm?

Description

Welcome to Pelvic Empowerment, a channel created with the intention to empower anyone and everyone living with pelvic dysfunction. I’m Tori, a doctor of physical therapy who specializes in pelvic dysfunction, which means I treat things that can go wrong around the pelvis.

Pelvises and dysfunction surrounding them have been repressed for too long! At Pelvic Empowerment, no topic is too taboo, no comment is too personal, and no question is "too much information." Because, the crazy thing is… everyone has a pelvis. So let’s talk about them!

Let this be a space that empowers you not only to better understand your body, but also to regain control of your health and overall wellbeing.

Thank you for being here.
