AMA Dr. Ally | What is “Pre-Hab" and Why Should All Endometriosis Surgery Patients Do It?

Watch as Dr. Ally explains the importance of endometriosis patients receiving pelvic floor nerve and muscle treatments through the PRM Protocol™ prior to undergoing endometriosis excision surgery.

At PRM, our endometriosis excision surgeons work alongside our pelvic nerve and muscle specialists to ensure our patients receive the best care - before, during, and after their surgery - for optimal surgical outcomes.

Dr. Allyson Shrikhande is a board certified Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation specialist, Chief Medical Officer of Pelvic Rehabilitation Medicine, and an expert in women’s and men’s health and sexual health. A leading expert on pelvic health and a respected researcher, author and lecturer, Dr. Shrikhande is a recognized authority on female and male pelvic pain diagnosis and treatment.

At Pelvic Rehabilitation Medicine™, we believe that the millions of women and men who suffer from pelvic pain should have access to care that provides relief. We don’t believe “a glass of wine will fix it” or that “it’s all in your head”. We will never abandon you – and from leadership to the front office to every pelvic pain specialist you meet, so much of our team has been in your shoes and believes the pelvic pain patient deserves better. This belief is what unifies us all at PRM.

Since 2017, PRM has provided an innovative solution to a health crisis that affects 15% of women and 10% of men. Persistent pelvic pain is often overlooked, untreated, and misguided. At PRM, our mission is to decrease the time patients are suffering from pelvic pain symptoms.

We offer a proprietary, simple, office-based procedure to treat the symptoms of chronic pelvic pain. The PRM Protocol™ consists of a series of pelvic nerve and muscle treatments to directly target inflammation in the pelvis and nerve pain. Depending on the condition causing your pelvic pain, other modalities may be needed in addition to our treatment.

So the benefit to having the PRM Protocol™ before surgery, right? At PRM we call this a "pre-hab". Conceptually it is to desensitize your hyperactive pelvic nerves. They are firing all over the place, and we wanted to calm them down, desensitize them, so that when surgery does happen, it decreases your patient's chances of flaring from the surgery, as well as helps them recover faster post-operatively with less pain and less need for opioid medication.

In addition, we also, with pre-hab, we'll also address any myofascial issues in the pelvic floor, so that pelvic floor burning. Which, addressing myofascial issues, in addition to the nerve inflammation, will also help patients bounce back faster. It's all about that, decreasing the recovery time, decreasing the need for post-operative opioids, and getting patients back to living their lives soon.
