Surgery alone is not curative and The PRM Protocol™ is the
future
WEST
PALM BEACH, Fla., May 8, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Pelvic Rehabilitation Medicine (PRM), a national
leader in endometriosis care, believes when it comes to
endometriosis, lifelong care is the only way to go. There is more
to treatment and care than excision surgery alone, which is not
curative. Endometriosis is a complex systemic inflammatory disease
- challenges are often around handling the different aspects of
Endometriosis.
"Before seeing us, patients have waited 8+ years for a
diagnosis. That is a long time for inflammation to build up in the
pelvic cavity from the inflammatory cytokines released by
endometriosis plaques," says Dr. Allyson
Shrikhande, Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer, Pelvic
Rehabilitation Medicine. "As Endometriosis is a surgical diagnosis,
Excision Surgery is a great first step. However, as it is a chronic
systemic inflammatory disease process, an annual check in with your
pelvic pain specialist is important to optimize approaches to
decrease endometriosis plaque proliferation."
PRM's simple office-based procedure, The PRM
Protocol™, directly targets the inflammation in the pelvis,
pelvic nerve pain, and pelvic floor muscle spasms. The goal is to
reverse the neurogenic inflammatory process in the pelvis.
Research has shown endometriosis proliferates in an environment
that has inflammatory cytokines "swimming around". Therefore,
optimizing the pelvic environment with less inflammation will have
a positive effect not only on pelvic pain but also on endometriosis
plaque growth and rate of recurrence. Combining the PRM Protocol™
with lifestyle modifications including nutrition, exercise,
mindfulness mediation, and certain medications tailored to patient
goals may help decrease the recurrence rate and decrease the total
number of surgeries endometriosis patients need to undergo in a
lifetime.
A more proactive and preventative approach to endometriosis
results in less pain over a longer time – 75% of PRM patients note
a statistically significant Improvement in Pain and Function.
