Pelvic Floor Therapy for Post-Vasectomy Complications

Vasectomy is a commonly performed and generally safe procedure for permanent male contraception. However, a small percentage of men experience complications following the surgery, ranging from persistent pain to pelvic discomfort and urinary changes. At Next Step Physiotherapy , we offer  Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy Edmonton as a specialized treatment approach to help manage and resolve these post-vasectomy complications.

Understanding Post-Vasectomy Complications

Though most men recover quickly from a vasectomy, some may experience ongoing issues that can affect their quality of life. Common post-vasectomy complications include:

Pelvic floor muscle tension or spasms

Urinary urgency or frequency

Pain during or after sexual activity

Many of these symptoms are linked to dysfunction of the pelvic floor muscles, which can become overactive or imbalanced after surgery, particularly in response to inflammation, nerve sensitivity, or protective guarding mechanisms.

How Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy Can Help

At Next Step Physiotherapy, we recognize the often-overlooked role that pelvic floor muscles play in men's health—especially after procedures like a vasectomy. Our pelvic floor therapy programs are designed to:

Relieve Muscle Tension and Spasms

Overactive or tight pelvic floor muscles are a common cause of lingering pain and discomfort. Using manual therapy techniques, such as internal and external myofascial release, our physiotherapists work to reduce tension in the pelvic region and restore muscular balance.

Improve Muscle Coordination

In some cases, the pelvic floor muscles may not function properly in coordination with other muscle groups, such as the abdominals and glutes. We provide targeted exercises to improve this coordination, helping reduce strain and improve function.

Address Nerve Sensitivity

Gentle neuromuscular re-education, breathing techniques, and relaxation strategies can help desensitize affected nerves and reduce the perception of pain.

Support Sexual and Urinary Function

Issues such as pain during ejaculation or urinary urgency can often be linked to pelvic floor dysfunction. Through specific interventions, we help improve pelvic organ support, bladder control, and sexual comfort.

A Supportive, Judgment-Free Environment
