Pelvic Pain Chiropractor near Cambridge

​​Pelvic pain can be persistent, frustrating, and difficult to pinpoint. Whether it feels like a dull ache, sharp discomfort, or radiating pressure in the lower abdomen, hips, or groin, pelvic pain affects daily life—from walking and sitting to sleeping and exercising. While it can stem from many causes, one often-overlooked contributor is misalignment of the pelvis and spine.

Chiropractic care offers a natural, non-invasive approach to identifying and correcting the root causes of pelvic pain by focusing on alignment, nerve function, and muscular balance. We have successfully treated many patients for Pelvic pain, why not give us a try?

 

Understanding Pelvic Pain

The pelvis is the structural foundation of the body, supporting the spine, connecting the legs, and housing key muscles, organs, and nerves. Misalignments in the pelvis or lower spine can disrupt this balance, resulting in pain and dysfunction.

 

Common Symptoms of Pelvic Dysfunction:

• Pain in the hips, groin, buttocks, or lower abdomen

• Discomfort while sitting, walking, or changing positions

• Radiating pain into the lower back or legs

• Imbalance or "uneven" feeling while standing or walking

• Tension in the surrounding muscles (glutes, hip flexors, pelvic floor)

 

Common Causes of Pelvic Pain Addressed by Chiropractors:

• Pelvic misalignment or instability (e.g., sacroiliac joint dysfunction)

• Lower back subluxations affecting pelvic nerves and muscles

• Repetitive strain from poor posture or prolonged sitting

• Sports injuries or overuse

• Pregnancy-related changes to pelvic structure and support

• Postural imbalances from leg length discrepancies or scoliosis

• Muscle imbalances in the hips and core

 

How Chiropractic Care Helps Pelvic Pain

Chiropractors are trained to evaluate the entire musculoskeletal system, with a special focus on how the spine, pelvis, and lower extremities work together. Treatment aims to restore balance, improve mobility, and relieve nerve and muscle tension—all of which contribute to pelvic discomfort.

  1. Pelvic and Spinal Adjustments

Misalignments of the pelvis or lower spine can place abnormal stress on surrounding joints, muscles, and nerves. Chiropractors perform gentle, precise adjustments to realign the pelvis and restore proper biomechanics.

  2. Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Stabilisation

The sacroiliac joints connect the pelvis to the spine. Dysfunction in these joints is a common cause of pelvic pain. Chiropractic adjustments help normalise SI joint movement and relieve associated inflammation and nerve irritation.

  3. Soft Tissue Therapy

Tight or strained muscles—such as the piriformis, glutes, and hip flexors—can contribute to pelvic discomfort. Chiropractors use manual therapy, myofascial release, and stretching techniques to relieve tension and improve circulation.

  4. Corrective Exercises

Rehabilitation is key to long-term relief. Chiropractors often prescribe exercises that strengthen core and pelvic muscles, stabilise the spine, and support proper alignment.

  5. Postural and Ergonomic Guidance

Poor posture or repetitive movement patterns can lead to chronic pelvic stress. Chiropractors help patients identify and correct these habits to reduce strain on the pelvis and improve functional movement.
