Welcome at the tailbone therapist
Welcome at my website about tailbone problems. An issue that is not understood by most doctors and therapists, but something that is often easy to treat. Quick, effective and mostly even painless.
You can find all you need to know about tailbone problems and the treatment on this website.
Tailbone pain / Coccydynia
Tailbone pain, also called coccydynia, mostly is a very unpleasant problem. It is a complaint that can lead to a lot of pain and strong limitations in daily life. Sitting is mostly the main problem. In the medical as well as therapeutical world, there is still little known about what can be done about these problems. The doctor, physiotherapist and manual therapist mostly are just taught that the tailbone ‘is there’ and often that’s about all they learn about it in their educations. Even the pelvic therapist can often do little about it.
Althought there is quite some knowledge available about these problems nowadays and that they can often be very well treated, most doctors tell their patients with tailbone that nothing can be done about it, prescribe painkillers (what is solely focused on the symptom relieve) or refer them to the hospital or clinic. There the doctors mostly try to interrupt the a disrupted pain cycle if that is present, and do that with medication through injections. In half of the cases this offers the solution for the problems, for the other 50% it unfortunately doesn’t lead to a structural solution or more than a temporarily relieve.
Because of this people often suffer tailbone problems for a long time. Often until they start doing the research themselves and find a specialised therapist. You found one here and all about what and how you can find collegues of me, is on this website. Even people that have tailbone problems for a long time or with a lot of pain, in more than 75% of the cases they leave pain- and problem free and often after only a few treatments.
It is good to see that also the mainstream media is picking up that there is a treatment available for these problems. By clicking on the link below, you will find an article in Het Algemeen Dagblad (which also was published in the Belgium newspaper Het Laatste Nieuws) from June 2023 about tailbone problems. Unfortunately it is only available in Dutch.
