“The pelvis is closely associated with

our greatest abilities and disabilities,

our greatest romances and tragedies,

our greatest pleasures and pains”

( Fryette 1954 )

Side effects following prostate procedures for men is also very common, with growing evidence of substantial benefit found from conservative Pelvic Floor Physio techniques.
