CHIROPRACTIC AND REMEDIAL MASSAGE FOR PELVIC & PUBIC PAIN IN ADELAIDE
Understanding Pelvic & Pubic Pain
Pelvic and pubic pain can affect the joints, muscles, ligaments, and connective tissues that support the pelvis.
The discomfort may be felt around the pubic bone, groin, hips, lower abdomen, buttocks, or lower back.
Some people experience occasional discomfort, while others develop persistent pain that interferes with walking, sitting, exercising, sleeping, and daily activities.
The pelvis acts as the foundation between the spine and lower limbs.
When the structures within this region become irritated, strained, overloaded, or restricted, pain and movement difficulties can develop.
Pelvic and pubic pain can affect people of all ages and is commonly experienced during pregnancy, after childbirth, following sporting injuries, or due to repetitive physical demands.
At
Chiropractic On Winston
in Adelaide, chiropractic care and remedial massage therapy are tailored to help address musculoskeletal factors contributing to pelvic and pubic pain while supporting mobility and function.
What Causes Pelvic & Pubic Pain?
Pelvic and pubic pain can develop from a variety of conditions and contributing factors.
Common causes include:
Pregnancy-related pelvic girdle pain, pubic symphysis dysfunction, sacroiliac joint dysfunction, muscle strains, groin injuries, hip dysfunction, repetitive lifting, prolonged sitting, sporting activities, falls, trauma, poor posture, and reduced core stability.
Pregnancy is one of the most common contributors due to hormonal changes that increase ligament flexibility and alter pelvic stability.
Athletes may also develop pelvic and pubic pain from repetitive running, kicking, twisting, sprinting, and sudden changes in direction that place stress on the pelvic region.
Understanding the underlying cause is important because effective treatment often depends on identifying the structures involved and the factors contributing to ongoing irritation.

Chiropractic and Remedial Massage Treatment for Pelvic & Pubic Pain
At Chiropractic On Winston, treatment begins with a comprehensive assessment to identify factors contributing to the condition.
This may include evaluating posture, pelvic alignment, joint mobility, movement patterns, hip function, muscle balance, walking mechanics, and core stability.
Chiropractic care may involve gentle joint mobilisation, chiropractic adjustments where appropriate.
Movement correction strategies, rehabilitation exercises, and postural advice designed to improve function and reduce mechanical stress on the pelvis.
Remedial massage therapy may help address tension within the muscles surrounding the pelvis, hips, groin, lower back, and legs.
Treatment aims to reduce muscle tightness, improve flexibility, encourage healthy circulation, and support more efficient movement patterns.
Combining chiropractic care with remedial massage may help address both joint and muscular components associated with pelvic and pubic pain.
What To Do When Pelvic & Pubic Pain Occurs & How To Help Prevent It
When pelvic or pubic pain develops, early management can help minimise irritation and reduce the likelihood of symptoms worsening.

Maintain good posture, use supportive footwear, and remain active within comfortable limits.
Prevention strategies may include:
