Dr. Krystal Couture and Dr. Michelle Gellis discuss The Jaw & The Pelvis. The connection between the pelvic floor and the jaw is one rooted to week 3 of embryonic development. In this course, we’ll talk about the unique anatomical and energetic similarities between the pelvis and the jaw. We’ll cover basic pelvic and jaw anatomy, local treatment, spirit of the points, sinews, and extraordinary vessels.

You might have heard of Kegel exercises for your pelvic floor. You might have even heard of PT’s that work with the pelvic floor, but did you know that acupuncturists can support your pelvic health?

Long before becoming an acupuncturist, I became a PT and over time came to specialize in Pelvic Health, specifically dry needling of the pelvic floor and surrounding structures. I became an acupuncturist to go deeper into the spirit of the points and gain deep understanding of the organ system energetics. I fell in love with the impact a needle can make on a physical, emotional or energetic level.
