Holistic pelvic care is an integrative therapeutic approach to women’s reproductive health that utilizes physical and energetic techniques to address pelvic pain, menstrual issues, fertility concerns and emotional healing. It offers women an experience-rich healing journey while reconnecting them to their core selves – helping them reach full embodiment of their feminine essence.
At an HPC session, the practitioner will assess a client’s pelvic muscles and ligaments for any areas of tension or dysfunction, treating any energy blockages which might be restricting vitality flow into their womb space. Sessions may also include guided visualization exercises, breathwork practices or other ways of supporting emotional healing.
Many clients report experiencing an increased sense of connection and awareness in their root – feeling calm, centered and grounded. HPC practitioners also encourage clients to prioritize pelvic health in their lives as part of an overall proactive strategy – listening and responding to what their body signals them to do – the gentle technique can have powerful results.
Tami Lynn Kent is the creator of HPC(tm), as well as authoring Wild Feminine: Finding Power, Spirit & Joy in the Female Body. Her work draws upon her clinical experience as a women’s health physical therapist to blend practical anatomy knowledge with energy psychology and intuition-based perspectives.
Kent developed the HPC(tm) method of bodywork specifically tailored for women’s core patterns. Utilizing physical and energetic tools, pelvic massage practitioners are able to assess and restore equilibrium in female pelvic bowls using this holistic practice. HPC(tm)’s core methodology relies upon myofascial release – an internal myofascial technique designed specifically to work with women’s bodies. HPC(tm) allows a pelvic massage practitioner to use pressure point massage techniques that clear away congestion in the womb space, supporting vibrant flow throughout the entire pelvic region, and ultimately helping women reclaim their pelvic space and embrace their feminine power – physically, energetically and emotionally – reclaiming it also unlocks innate wisdom and creative potential in women.

Holistic pelvic care offers physical, energetic, emotional support to this space regaining our inner power as an effective form of preventative health care.
An effective holistic pelvic care session typically begins with an extensive intake process. The practitioner will ask the client about any recent medical or psychological concerns as well as current symptoms that have surfaced, in order to help identify the best course of treatment for her or him. They may also introduce basics of pelvic anatomy so clients have a better understanding of all the muscles, organs, and sensitive tissues that comprise their pelvic bowl.
Hands-on component of holistic pelvic care sessions typically includes intravaginal myofascial release of female pelvic floor muscles.
